I have had headunits in the past that get loud at low volume I have to crank this thing up past 20 to get some sound even at 11 ,15 I basically hear nothing. What can be the cause of this

If there is no amplifier, then check the Source Volume if it has that feature. If it has the feature to turn off internal amplifier, then make sure it is on.What can be the cause of this
If there is no amplifier, then check the Source Volume if it has that feature. If it has the feature to turn off internal amplifier, then make sure it is on.
If there is an amplifier, check the fader, x-over output, source volume.
A quick test to exculpate the front speakers is to connect them to the rear channel outputs of the amp, and connect the rear speakers to the front channels. I am assuming you have 4 RCAs going to the amp.It was doing this before the amp.and now I have amp for my interior speakers and it's the same way only difference is the rear is a lot louder at the same volume
Yes I have rcas going to the amp so u want me to go to the head unit and swap themA quick test to exculpate the front speakers is to connect them to the rear channel outputs of the amp, and connect the rear speakers to the front channels. I am assuming you have 4 RCAs going to the amp.
So do you think I have the rca cables mixed up somehow? Or faulty rca cables?A quick test to exculpate the front speakers is to connect them to the rear channel outputs of the amp, and connect the rear speakers to the front channels. I am assuming you have 4 RCAs going to the amp.
No, swap the wires that come out of the amp to the speakers.Yes I have rcas going to the amp so u want me to go to the head unit and swap them
No, swap the wires that come out of the amp to the speakers. Ok so I believe I will be looking to see if the effects are reversed and if they aren't what next and if they are what's the next step
? do you still have the internal amplifier on? If so turn it off. And did you run new speaker wires to the speakers or are you using something like Stinger 9 Wire Wire to the harness going to the OEM harness? Mine doesn't have internal amplifier and yest I'm running speed wire to the harness
I have searched everywhere and see nothing about turning off a internal amplifierYes it has a internal amplifier per Kenwood. Check your audio settings and setup to see if there is an option to turn it off. If you have the speaker wires going from the radio to that harness in conjunction with the 9 wire then you need to disconnect those kenwood speaker wires and turn off the internal amplifier if it allows you to.
Also check the gain settings inside the eq and what not. Those are all adjustable as well per the manual.
