I'm starting to admit that I must have done something wrong in wiring.
I bought another used amp after having issues with previous one.
It's Phoenix Gold Octane-R 5.0:4
I connected all the wires and everything seemed to be working.
I found out that no sound was coming out from front right.
So I took that speaker to front left to see if it's the speaker problem or the front right channel problem.
Still no sound from the speaker after switching it to the working channel.
So I replaced that speaker with another PS speaker I had.
All sounds coming from 4 speakers(no tweeter at this time).
So I 'm driving for couple of minutes and decided to turn it up to see what adjustments would be necessary.
After about 3 minutes suddenly no music and really loud machine gun like sound coming out from all four speakers. And I can see the speakers working really hard to fire several rounds every second, since I did not put the grills back on.
Funny thing is this happened while I was playing the same song that I played when the previous amp suddenly shut off and never got to run it again.
I'm afraid I might have destroyed another amp.
Ask me questions, ask me for pictures, please someone help me nail down the problem.... I already waisted $160 on amps and tons of hours.
I'm about to give up on having an amplifier in my car.
My expectation of having a decent sound in my car has been crushed twice now and I am very depressed
