    Kicker stereo problems

    Looks like my stock Kicker KMC 100 has gone T/ U again . Not the same issue but just no longer playing . Will be replacing with either a JL Audio mm-40 or a Rockford fosgate pmx2 . Anyone have either one of those and if so feedback please much appreciated. Thx

    Kicker stereo problems

    After reading a few threads saw that others did a reboot on the kicker by pressing the play/pause button and holding down for 5 seconds . This seemed to have fixed my problem ! No more high pitch sound from speakers so hopefully no more issues .
