SUB WOOFER NOT WORKING LIKE ORIGINAL


Problem with Sony Xplod XM-554ZR Car Audio Amplifier

10 inch subs need help

I have 10 inch subs in my car i don't know why but they wont really hit like if you turn the amp all the way up and stuff it vibrates a little bit just not like real subs should like it dont bounce the part its supposed to what is the problem i know the amp is very strong but why would it not still make them bounce????


It sounds like the wiring either to the amp or to the subs is put together wrong. This can be because you have them setup in stereo but have the sub on bridge mode or vica versa. This can also be from how you ran the audio input wither from speakers or rca..either wired wrong or the switch for the two options is wrong. Also make sure your gain is turned up. Sound also depends on what kind of box it is in. It HAS to be in a box.

How do I hook up a sub woofer

Problem with Sony Xplod XM-554ZR Car Audio Amplifier


How do I hook up a sub woofer to my Sony 52wx4 radio. I dont have a wiring diagram?




You can hook it up a couple of ways.

Depending on how many subs you have and what ohms they are running at here is the chart you need. If your going to run one sub off it the last option is the way to go. Your going to need to find out the power of your subs or else the power could be off and you could blow the sub. If the rms power is higher than 130watts per coil you will be fine. If so there are four channels on the amp and two should show a line going to each other that says bridge. Hook up the positives and the negative of the subs as shown on the amp that will get your max power. If your sub is running at 4 ohm. Let me know, if not thats how you would do it.

Also for the power and remote wires. Hook up a power wire (16 gauge would be plenty fine) from the battery to the + terminal of the amp. Then take an equal or bigger sized wire from the - side of the amp and secure it to any medal part of the body of the car. If there is paint on it get if off. (not on the outside of your car or where any water would be.) Then run a remote wire from your stereo (most the times it is blue and white) to the remote terminal of the amp. This tell the amp when to turn on and off. Your amp will not turn on with out all of these wires. Good luck to you and let me know how it works out.

4 x 55W RMS @ 4Ohm

4 x 65W RMS @ 2Ohm

1 x 130W RMS @ 4Ohm - Bridge
