Default Help 2 15s

I have 2 15 kicker cvrs and 1 sub hits differnt from the other not a big differnce but noticable.

I took the subs out the box,checked the wiring on the subs and checked the subs with a 9volt battery and everything as far as the subs and box is good.

I also changed the RCA plugs I have them connected to my deck but I have 2 amps 1 for my door speakers and one for the subs and I used the pass thru on the door speaker amp and the same thing.

Now I put a volt meter on the terminals and 1 channel is .05 and the other one is -.02 or -.01 it's a 2 channel ssl amp 2000.2

Sorry I wrote so much I tried to make it easy to understand lol thanks for all the help I appreciate it.

.05 what? ohms? volts? current?

we need to know things like this. if you're getting a negative though, make sure that the subs are wired properly. you could have accidentally switched the positive and negative feeds on the subs at the amp

I can't even remember what should my volt meter be on when I check it? Cause I put just checked it on a random setting and saw that the numbers were different right on the terminals on the amp.

And the positive wire goes to the positive and vise versa but do you think maybe a short in the wire would cause that?

Hmm I thought that was causing my subs to hit differnt ways like if it's loud and I pause the music 1 sub floats up and the other floats down

I'm confused on what's causing it.

But if it's a 2 Chanel amp and I'm reading the different terminals shouldn't those be the same?

try connecting the input directly to the deck without the other amp... problem more then likely is the output from the other amp....

That's how I normally have it hooked up to the deck, I just used the pter amp to check with different RCAs. It bounces the sub on the left input on the amp.

Why would it do that? Is my amp bad?
