Brand new unit.I go to hook it up in the car.
Made sure the unit was off, hooked up the negative wire, hooked up the positive wire, and hear a SNAP.
Checked power wires, yepp hooked up correctly.
Unit turns on, PreAmp works, all the lights and relay work. NO power output. Opened it up, theres a blue 3 legged box marked 2K with a hole blown through the middle of it. Anyone know what this is and or why this would have happened ?

never mind, thats just the way that 2k is, and the problem was some charging capacitor.
All fixed now :-)
