i found out what the problem is....it wasnt the ground nor wires touching...i redid my whole system..checked and double checked the power wire, remote wire, and ground wire...nothin pinched or anything....anyway when i looked at the mainfuse on the power wire itself, i actually took it out to look at it....that was blown on the end part hidden from view...but to save me the trouble i returned the amp and bought me a brand new mono 1 channel amp...the subs are good also...not blown or anything....anyway...thanks for the help fellas....oh by the way...the gain was down on the first amp that i had...i mean all the way down.....same goes for my new amp..and my system hits even harder than the other setup i had....and i do have a 1.1 farad cap...or what we call it...flux-capacitior with 1.21 jigawatts of power..lol
