Default 15's messin up?? weird, am i stupid??

ok so i got two kicker cv-r 15's (i think thats what they are), old school rockford fosgate 900 competition amp, the lil black ones and a 3 farad cap... now the weird thing is that used to hit perfect, and i disconnected once and then when i went back to hook them up they wouldn't hit?? so i figured out that the remote was meesed up fixied it and now the amp turns on, the 15's hit fine when the volume is very low, but once u turn it up the bass hits like really hard and goes like "boom, boom, boom, boom" constantly, really fast (what? it's only way i could think of explain it) everything is hooked fine the wires are where they sposed to be rca's and power on opposite sides, everything connected to amp good and to speakers too, it's weird i don't know what the hell is going on with it?? help!!

Thats all I can think of. You can check and make sure that no part of your power lead is touching a metal part on your amp as well. Its hard to diagnose these types(non-common problems) of things without being able to look at the setup in person in my opinion.

just take it out and leave it off?? will i be able to put it back on or should i just run it directly to the amp?? someone told me that it's possible that the rca jack got messed up and i needed to change the deck or put in rca converters because the rca's in the back of the deck or messed up??

i had almost the same problem, mine was cause the rca's where touching the amp. i had cheaper rca's with metal ends and the ends where laying on the amp, which was a rockford amp. also i dont think its power related cause its playing, its rca related, good luck.

b sure rca cables and all power cables are not too close together, such as tangled. sometimes if they r running side by side it could cause that. also check rca cables to see if they are not damaged. and r pulgged in all the way.
