Sorry I have to return it or pay for it. I did not try resetting the radio. From the pops coming through it something terribly wrong. To give you more clues - the ozone smell started right away - really strong! After those channels went out I don't smell it anymore. This was also my first heavy rain with this unit. Could be it but it is a marine unit.

 

Hi G,
I'm using the sound stream 1000 D. It looks pretty straight forward to me unless I'm missing something. The front L/R out puts of my Sony mex gets plugged into the front L/R of the sound stream amp. The fronts are my biketronics Pros.

Those speakers jam like magic.

The Moto's Sounded like a muffled low output. Even when I cranked the gain on the amp for the rear (which are the lower motos) it didn't help.

So I disconnected my pros and fed the moto's off the mex front radio outputs and the MotoS came to life alive again just like the pro series.
I fed the pro series from the rear Sony outputs and the same problem was transferred over to my pro series speakers. The pros then sounded like crap.

Any set of speakers that has a signal fed to it from the rear Sony rca'S as an output to the amp sound like dog poop.

What ya thinking I might have missed?

Also I'm using stinger 8000 series solid RCA not twisted and I even bought an extra stinger cable and swapped it out and it made no difference. The rear radio output to m seemed to be bad. Let me know what ya think.

 

G,
My stingers are 8000 series and one side does have a "Y" built in.
I did buy an extra stinger cable and used it troubleshooting to see if my cable was bad but the new cable didn't make a difference.

 

That is some crazy stuff.

So how do we RESET a radio?
I have it all unplugged ready to be pulled. Is power off a reset?

 

From page 26 in the manual.

The operation buttons do not function. The disc will not eject.
Press PTY/CAT and (back)/MODE for more
than 2 seconds to reset the unit.
The contents stored in memory are erased.
For your safety, do not reset the unit while you are driving.

 

G -

You got another 4 channel Amp laying around? If so I'd plug that one in and see if you still have the same issue.

 

Interesting....I guess I can do that and retest to see if it makes any difference.
I'll try this. I have the new mex already. It came today.

Honestly I don't like screwing with this stuff after working 10/12 hour shift.
This will wait till later in the week.

 

No G...I only have the BT 2180 on a shelf. The 1000 d installed.
By the way I don't have any "y" connector like I mentioned. I have these.....
I thought the ends looked like a "y" but later saw what a real "y" is. Sorry about that.

 

If it's the issue I'm thinking. You'll have the same issue on the new radio. I'll keep my fingers crossed. All I can say at this point is those SS amps are tricky sometimes. We'll see what happens when you install your new radio. Hopefully I'm wrong.

 

Now you have my attention!
I'm going to work on it some tonight.

First I'll do the reset on the old Radio before I pull it.
If that works, I'm still going to swap it just because....

If the new Radio does the same thing I'll let ya know G.
Thanks
