Thumping subs

[GodsbaneDragons]

I have all my wires ran to my amp. I cant seem to figure out why when i hook up my remote wire to my amp the subs start pulsing in a thumping manner. I have tried to replace all the wires for my remote and it still does it. It only does it with my remote wire plugged into my amp. Any advice would be helpful

Uh......
Try a mobile audio website?

OK, I'm going to give this a shot. (Pandemic boredom )

Let's try to narrow it down some: is this a bass guitar amp? If so, what brand and model is it specifically? In using the term 'remote', are you referring to a wired remote foot-switch? And by 'subs', are you referring to the low-frequency speaker(s) in multi-speaker system? Or, are you maybe using the term to refer to your bass amp's speakers in general?

I guess that's enough to get started on; more questions may arise after these are answered.

Have you tried emailing Kraco directly?

I too am curious what a remote is, and how many wires it uses.

It's the servo system acting up. You need to use Speakon connectors but make sure it's wired correctly. Check it with a multi-meter for continuity and correct phase alignment. The remote may also be out of phase so check the batteries and all direct wires for correct polarity. Is the remote backwards (pointing in the wrong direction)?

Home or Car stereo unit I can not tell which one. They accidentally joined the wrong website.

Makes and models are always best to mention when asking for help so more specific help can be given.

You're not dense, just very observant!

Well, of course it happens when your remote's hooked up. That's what turns your amp on. Turn down the gain. Are you running it low input or high input? Check your wires, you've most likely got a hot running to an input. That would put current to your output, making your speakers pulse.

And, come on! Nobody else here hooks up their car stereos themselves?

HPF!!

Are you using a guitar cord from your remote instead of speaker wire?

Maybe it's a F-Bomb ?

Oh man, that first post took me right back to the same place. Bring on the impatient comedians.
