Replaced stock sub BO unleashed issues

[Ckhris]

I installed a Kicker 46CXA 400.1
Kicker keyloc
Kicker CVTDF102 10” sub
Soundsgoodstereo amp connector plug

When I unplugged the stock sub and started mounting everything but nothing plugged into stock yet… I had to run to hardware store and get some bolts and a cover for the hole where the stock sub was. I noticed the stereo sound was lower at the levels I used to listen too… before level 20 was pretty loud… 15 was not loud and 20 wasnt either… figured once the system was in and up and running the volume level would be back but it was not… I tried adjusting the fade and balance and no mater where I moved the dot noting changed. Im thinking I need to do something with forscan and have googled it but I have not found anything that states… yep I had this and this is what I did to fix it.

So, you took out the stock amp and subwoofer and all you did was put an aftermarket amp and sub and the keyloc dsp? That will not work. You need the zen navtv or equivalent to do it right.

Bingo!!!!

if the oem amp is gone, then its going to sound crappy (er) there are other speakers that are not controlled by the oem amp and thats what you are hearing. namely the center channel speaker, tweeters and rear speakers are controlled from the head unit

OEM amp is still there
Everything is still there minus the stock sub

Sorry… said stock amp… meant stock sub

i guess first step would be to check power to the oem amp

Okay, so you added an amp and replaced the sub. Whatever. That is the wrong way to do it. Stop trying to do it the cheap way on your 80k truck.

This will fix it...
Remove all mids and highs, sound deaden, block off plates etc etc
Replace all mids and highs with aftermarket
Add Nav interface and whatever new equivalent
Add mono amp for subs
Add 4 channel for mids and highs
Add subs and enclosure, behind seat, underseat, remove seat, blow through...done them all.
Add Sound Processor if desired..tune tune tune, gain is not a volume knob etc etc
Replace Alternator with bigger and better
Add Lithium if your amp needs more electrical etc etc etc

Oh look you have spent >10 grand.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA...but it will fix it will it not? LOL
