HELP!!! My bass lost its thump
Okay, I've been working on this for about 1 week now and it is frustrating the f*** out of me.
I have Sony HU(soon to be upgraded), Bose speakers, 2 amps, 2 subs, and 1 cap. Everything is has been wired and rewired and rewired.... I am getting barely audible music from the subs. I've tried switching grounds, checked connections from front to back, removed cap from line, even removed RCA took them in the house and hooked up to my home stereo. Played with the amps. I've done some reading on aftermarket to Bose hookups, everything is fine on that end(mild distortion, but HU/EQ handled that). What am I missing, I know its got to be so simple I'm going to feel like a moron, but PLEASE jump in here and help.

Check the sub output of the HU and make sure its on. Check fuses. Make sure you have a good ground point. Make sure the remote wire is hooked up securely. Is the amp turning on? Check the internal wires of the box and the terminals and on the inputs of the speakers.

Could it be that the Hu which is also supporting the 4 other individual Bose amps, not sending enough voltage to the Sony amps? Would I need to use the signal at the rear speaker like it is mentioned in the posts?
