SOURCE: Amplifier On - No Sub Sound

Are you certain you put the wires back on the amp the exact way they came off. I am not familiar with this amp but most amps if you look at the terminals where the speakers hook up there will be a plus and a minus. And generally there are four terminals. hence stereo plus and minus left and right. Some even have eight for, four channels. Since the amp is on, not getting hot and you tried two different audio inputs I would suspect speaker wiring or maybe the stuff you put in your trunk bumped a switch on the amplifier. I know this is not the exact answer you are probaly looking for but it is at least a place to start

SOURCE: speaker buzz

Well yes your speaker is damaged, the cone actually has a tear, so audio that has low base or high pitch will cause distoration..

Simply remove it, take it with you and buy a similar one.. Same size, same watts, same ohms and just put the new one in.

speakers are standered only brand names are different..

BTW if you feel that you dont want to purchase a new one, simply stick the tear with duct tape, or you can hot glue it together.. If its plasctic, plastic weld works good(ask for it at a hardware)..

SOURCE: amp works but no sound from sub

Some older Pioneer radios require you to connect the Subwoofer RCA to the rear output on the back of the radio and then you have to turn on the subwoofer in the menu on the radio. What model Pioneer radio is it? Also, make sure that the RCA plugged into the amp is on the input side, not the output side.

SOURCE: Hello, I have an Sony

the buzzing sound is a sign that your transformer might be bad and is throwing out what 'we' call '60 cycle hum '. the cause of this could be a bad resistor or a bad diode. either way it is something that a skilled stereo electrician will need to fix, as parts will need to be removed from the circuit board and re-installed. the cost for this repair ( depending on if it is a transformer or a diode or just a resistor ) will be between 55 and 85 dollars depending on what the shop rate is in your area.

I have a PSW-D112 that has little use, i just hooked it up 2 days ago and was working great and I shut it off by the switch on the back of the unit now today I went to turn it on and it made a buzzing...

What happens if you disconnect only the source end of the RCA's? Atmospheric noise can enter through the cables if their shields are grounded well.

Flashing protect

the protector comes on to keep the amp from further damaging itself or the speakers. The buzz you heard was probably 60HZ line buzz from the main DC supply conducting full current through one of your speakers through a damaged amplifier transistor. Your stereo will need professional repair. The protect circuit basically opens the speaker relay (and sometimes shuts down the unit) to prevent this DC voltage and current from getting to your speakers until the problem is corrected.

Buzzing on certain speakers (but not all)

do you have the problem in stereo mode (no suround) Try to disconnect rear speakers and see if you still have the buzzing if you do then disconnect center and check,using only the mains,process of elimination, check your polarity + - on speakers and check the wire.I would double check ALL connections even RCAs

Sound card broken? No normal sound and a constant buzz...

Sounds like you tried everything possible. Based on what you have stated that you tried already I would agree with your diagnosis of a bad sound card.
If this was my Laptop I would be looking for a nice set of USB speakers and Microphone or a headset.
You can either keep the speakers turned down or you may be able to disable the onboard sound through a BIOS setting.

Or even better. Here is a USB sound card with speaker and microphone jacks. Pretty Cheap too.

Repetitive buzzing noise

Some componet in the Amp circuit is breaking down. The longer you let this go, the more of a chance that you will have a major short and blow out several parts,m as thats what happens with amps. Get it service asap and dont use it.
