System not working!

[Kaotic Lazagna]

hey spkrman, i solved my problem, yet again. i knew that it couldn't be all that the amp was giving, so i rechecked the wiring just now (it's past midnight here, lol). and i was right, my friend hooked up the RCA cables to the aux cables of the HU. so i swapped those to the rear cables, and now my subs works just fine. being midnight, i couldn't fully test it out or even tune it perfectly (do that later today, along with buying a remote signal wire). now my question is: could having the RCA hooked up to the aux cables cause damage to anything, i.e. sub, amp, etc?

ported? hmm, is there anyway so that i can turn my sealed box into a ported box? oh, if i decide i want more power, i'll let you know about that 800W amp. is that 800W RMS or peak? and if i do get that off you, i will have to upgrade my power cable to 4 gauge cable (remember, i have 8 gauge right now [but my friend thinks those are fat, and he has 4 gauge RF cables])?

you cant turn a sealed into a ported... it will sound like giant flapping ass.

You'll never hear me speak in peak terms.

4ga would be a good upgrade.

I have a 10 box ready for you already if/when you want to pick it up :)

damn, 800W RMS!!! now that's an amp! but yeah, i think i'll keep my system right now (depends how cheap/old your 800W amp is). i kinda made my friend want a Type R, so if he gets a 10" one, i'll sell him my box and buy one from you. but then there's the shipping charges...

price on that 10 box?...
