Hey guys.

When ever I turn my amp on I hear this "bassy" sound coming out of my sub. No music. HU is muted.

What could it be?

JL 1000/1 and 13w7

Thanks

I don't have a pioneer. I have an Eclipse AVN 5510

Follow the instructions on the top of that page. Any radio could have an open shield on the RCA jack. Pioneers are more likely to fail that way.

From the sub only? Meaning there's no amp for the High's? The issue is most often related to the signal source. Unplug the inputs on the sub amp and see if it stops.
