Coincidence
I just posted about this topic as well. Mine has been like since I got it. I thought that the system was just weak at first because my old car had a really booming system in it. So I didn't think much of it. I just checked my woofer and nothing is booming at all. Bringing it to the dealership in a few days (Tuesday) to have them look at it when I get my oil changed.

First check if the orange/red light on the amp is on, if it is there could be more wrong, but if not try these things. First check to see if the amp is getting power. A voltmeter on the power hook-ups on the amp can tell you if you are getting anything. Check the fuse on the power wire. This is about 8-10 inches off of the positive battery terminal on a seperate wire. If that isn't the case turn the radio on and see if the remote turn on is giving a signal to the amp. This is a usually a blue wire labled "remote". Use the volt meter again to see if you are getting about 12V on the amp.
If it isn't any of these things take it to a good car audio shop and they can maybe do some troubleshooting for you. Not Best Buy or Circuit bad, they have no idea what is going on...
Good Luck!

Sure it could be blown, but most blown subs will still put out some sound even if blown. Check the amp to see if it turns on before you deem the sub is blown.

the most common prob would be the fuse under the hood. there is a inline fuse that blows all the time, i dont recall which size fuse it is suppost to be in there, but it should say in the manual. i run 2 12's off that amp and i have no probs. if it keeps occuring then take it to a sterio shop and have them diagnose it. good luck!!(usa)
Yeah, I'm beating the hell out of my stock Kenwood amp as well, and it's been exceeding my expectations. I'm running a JL 12W6 DVC with the voice coils in parallel, so the bridged amp is seeing 1.5 ohm. I blow a fuse about every 6 mos., so it could be worse. I'm trying to kill the damn thing to give me motivation to install my Autotek 99, but it won't friggen die.
yeahhh but i dont udnerstand why its nto working i have everything hooked up i have a pioneer headunit and it is powered on for a sub and the amp light is on and the fuse is fine (dont kno what fuse to look at if under the hood) and all cables are conencted im just getting nothing out of the sub at all
