o right yeh they are in fine. yeh the sub works with the beat as it should do so ive not a clue really, i think best bet is to disconnect everything then reconnect it all!

that's the best thing but takes most of your time.

check GAIN setting on the amp, and input selection

|+|-|+|-| <--- top row
|+|-|+|-| <--- bottom row

sub is on top row on the end two.
left 6x9 on the right side of bottom row and right 6x9 on left side of bottom row.

take a trip into digital photography forum and learn about macro mode smileys/smiley17.gif

hmm wiring appears fine, have you adjusted the gain accidentally? have the frequency settings been adjusted?

does the headunit have fade control for outputs? may have faded it off?

other than that im stumped at the moment
