Audiobahn A2300HCt wont work

Hi, I have an Audiobahn A2300HCT amp hooked up right now in my 1991 Eagle talon (if that matters)...but my problem is, it wont work...the little indicator light stays on red, it is not hot, as I originally thought may be the problem...then I looked in my manual, and it tells me that it could be a short in the speaker wires, RCA's, or the power wire...I remove the speaker wire to take it out of the equation, I know its not my power, because I have a Hollywood Sound Labs rhv-40s on the same cable (just used dist. blocks) and the RCA's work in that amp...dunno if it matters, but I have a 12" Alpine Type-X sub hooked to it... Thanks for the Help, Evan

Well, sounds like you have an internal damage since it smokes, if it smokes as soon as it kicks on, and blowing the fuse right away, I would have it fixed. But my guess would be something with the ground that is making this happen, or some how your power is grounding on the amp. When ever smoke comes into play, thats never good any way at this point you gotta admitt that thiers internal damage.. blowing fuses can also be cause by over working your amp. along with the sub load at 1 ohm make sure your amp can do the same.. hope this was helpful in some way

HEY I HAVE 4 GAUGE GROUND & POWER THAS WHAT THE AMP ALLOWS. I TRY 0 GAUGE BUT IT IS TO BIG FOR THE AMP. A2300HCT.

Hello again VICENTEMULGA,

Audiobahn's website has apparently been shut down and it's my understanding that they are no longer manufacturing any new products. And not supporting the old ones, online anyway.

But I did find this site that sold the A2300HCT and still have the specifications listed. The 3rd from the bottom in the description shows "1/0- or 2-gauge power and ground leads recommended".

At the very least, you should consider running 1/0 or 2-gauge from the battery to a distribution block and then run a very short jumper from the distribution block to the amp.
