got a luxon monoblock amp that has been connected to 2 mtx 12 inch 5500 subs (300 rms each).

Any way i have used this same setup over the last 3 years in 2 different cars. For the last year its been in the boot of my r33. I took out the subs to use the boot. I went to put the subs back in 3 weeks later and the simple job of just connecting the speaker wires to the amp and reconnecting the power fuse took allot longer because no sound came from the speakers.

I turned the volume up slowly and still no sound. The only movement in the speakers was they moved inwards alittle bit, asif the polarity was wrong but i had double and tripple checked this. Thinking it might work if i reverse the polarity i reconnected it the other way and the same thing happend.

I took one of my subs to a friend with a much smaller amp and carefully connected it to his amp to see if the speaker was stuffed. The speaker still works (although it was way underpowerd from the small amp, never the less it still worked).

Can someone confirm that the amp is most likely alittle rooted....

ps the blue light on the back of the amp still turns on when the power is connected.

has anyone repaired anything like this?

does someone have an amp that would suite 2x 12inch mtx5500 subs (600rms) that they wanna get rid of?

      Rb25det neo issue tps voltage

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      OK, so, assuming that there is nothing wrong with either the original or new boost sensor, then it would seem that there might be something wrong in the loom wiring to that sensor. This is troublesome, because if that were true, then you might expect the problem to persist when the sensor was unplugged. But seeing as the voltage comes good when it is unplugged, it would suggest that the fault might (and I stress might) be right at the loom plug. Either that, or the fault might be at the ECU, on the line in from the boost sensor. When you unplug the boost sensor, that input at the ECU is isolated from the TPS sensor and can't affect it. This would be semi-bad, as an ECU problem is never welcome, but at least you'd know where the problem is and it might be fixable, or at least replaceable. Do you have Nistune, or any other way of looking at ECU data? I'd want to drive the car around with the boost sensor unplugged and see the TPS working properly, then not working properly with the sensor plugged back in. You're not trying to run more than ~18 psi either? Right? Because even with Nistune that can be difficult with the boost sensor connected. Just checking, in case it might have some bearing on the issue. It shouldn't cause the voltage situation you're seeing though.

      Then sell it and buy a BMW! I can totally relate to this (except the money part! ). I think for me I need to remind myself that I do enjoy the process and to stop being so damn impatient and eager to get it done. That just leads to frustration and broken stuff.  Built not bought. Wait.  Fixed, not fought? No ... Definitely fighting things. Definitely not fixed, I give up. Cars are pain.

      This week is the McLaren F1 GTR around Le Man.  I have a 3:48 ish I think (from memory) which is 2 secs off silver.  My issue is that I did a heap of the current daily race c around Le Man with the 787B first and switching to the McLaren is hard.
