Power LED does not illuminate.
Check fuses on the amplifier and in-line with the battery.
Check power and ground power cables.
Check remote voltage.
Power LED is illuminated but there is no sound.
Bass response is low.
The amplifier turns on and off.
Check volume control on source unit.
Check gain on the amplifier.
Check RCA cables and connections on the amplifier and source unit.
Check speaker cables and connection. Be sure to check connections inside the
subwoofer enclosure.
Check volume control on the source unit. If applicable check the level of the
subwoofer output from the source unit.
Check the gain setting on the amplifier.
Check RCA cables and connections on amplifier and the source unit.
Check speaker cables and connections. Be sure to check the connections inside
the subwoofer enclosure.
Check the polarity of subwoofer connections.

This RCA jack is used only when two RSX1600 amplifiers are used together
in Master/Servant configuration. The servant amplifier will receive signal
input from the master amplifier on this RCA jack. The controls on the
servant amplifier will be overridden by the controls on the master amplifier.
The RCA input on the servant amplifier should not be connected to
anything.

the servant amplifier on this RCA jack.
The low-pass filter allows bass frequencies to be amplified while blocking high
frequencies. The LPF should be set to around 80 Hz in most applications.
The subsonic filter blocks sub-bass frequencies that can damage subwoofers
and cannot be heard by the human ear. The subsonic filter should be set
around 20 Hz in most applications.
This knob dials in a bass boost of 0 to 12dB at a selectable frequency.
This knob dials in the center frequency of the Bass Boost circuit from 30 to
80 Hz.
The protect LED will illuminate briefly when the amplifier initiates its power on
self test. The protect LED will remain on solid if there is a malfunction such as
a short circuit. If the amplifier detects a fault carefully inspect for problems
before using the amplifier any further.

Power LED
The power LED will illuminate when the amplifier is powered up and working
normally. The power LED will flash when in power on self test or in the event of
a malfunction.
