Hi i was wondering if anyone can help me with this...

I have this amp

Kenwood Excelon KAC-X10D
http://www.crutchfield.com/p_113KACX10D/Kenwood-Excelon-KAC-X10D.html?search=Kenwood+VENDORID113&searchdisplay=Kenwood&tp=115

and this sub

Kicker CompVR 07CVR104
http://www.crutchfield.com/p_2067C10VR4/Kicker-CompVR-07CVR104.html?search=kicker+cvr

And for some reason... when i wire it... it seems like the amp isn't pushing anything at all... very very very little hits.

Any clues as to why?

Thanks!

I bet your sub is wired to 8 ohms.

Make sure its wired in parallel like this http://www.jbl.com/car/product_support/SubwooferWiring/sub_wiring_diagram.aspx?type=1-4-2
and be sure to adjust your gains

yeah.. it's not wired parallel at all. I took out the sub to look at it and its wired single. 1 neg 1 pos

Well change it to like in that link. Do you mean only one voice coil was being powered?
