here was my problem, did you turn the gain up all the way on the pac adapter. After i did that, it made a world of a difference.

Ok you said the amp turns on is it powering up or powering up and going into protect mode? Are you sure all your connections are tight behind the deck

I think everything is tight. The light on the side of the amp comes on, when I turn the gains on the pac adapter nothing happens. Factory stuff works like always and sounds correct. All the wires on the speakers are tight, but nothing comes through them. Is there any way to check sound at the speakers??
