Default need help

I just pulled my RF amp, and installed a new one, wired it up the exact same way, but now i have this constant low rumbling from the subs, and whenever i pause it, or change the radio station, or bring volume to zero and back on, the subs kick, REAL HARD

what is going on? I don't know why this is happening...

alwayz good to start by looking at your connections.. mainly your pos and ground. something may have come lose. usally you will find the problem starting from there.

Ground is definitely secure, POS? don't know what that stands for, but thebattery connection is fine, and remote turn on is fine...

update, the low rumbling stopped...buuut, the turn on bump is still there

hmm thats really really wierd, the only thing i can think of is maybe the wire is stripped in some place and its touching the frame or metal somewhere to cause interference....hm...

maybe the new amp is just bad?

There may be a short in the speaker wire somewhere.
