Thats whats in there right now, garbage?

 

[kiendienn]

I'm having an issue with my amp. The sensitivity light on the side isn't on, but the front led is on indicating that the amp is receiving power correctly. However, my remote gain control, which is wired to the driver's seat, no longer turns on (the green light doesn't turn on), and this results in my subwoofer not performing.

What are the odds of me being able to diagnose and fix this myself? Or should I just find a local shop or send it into soundstream?

How much would the repair probably cost?

I want to upgrade my sub (only one 10 inch Kenwood Tornado that I got for free

) into something better... Right now, I have a 4 channel amp with 600 watts, and I want to have at least two 10" subs in my car, what can I get the best bang for my buck? Limit for the two subs/encloser is 200+-

What are some good 12 inch subs to go with this amp? I basically got the amp for free from one of my homeboys. My budget is around 600 for 2 subs.
