My JENSEN QX-95, Monster Twin 10" Subwoofer with 250 Watt RMS amplifier will not turn on there is no light or sound. It is hooked up correctly through speaker-level inputs, also tried RCA leads. Amp is configured correcly don't know what the problem is, nothing will work there is not a drop of electricity going through the unit tried connecting it to the amp different ways still nothing not even a stand by light. Problem is, if it is the subs amp there is only a 1 yr warranty

Have you checked to see if there is a fuse in the circuit somewhere? Also do you have an OHM Meter so you can check the speaker to see what the resistance level is?

Keep us posted.

I have opened up the back panel but saw no fuse I think I saw where it is housed but I lacked the adequate tool and know how to open the housing and I really have zero electrician experience (I'm great at installing home theater systems,)I know using an OHM meter is simple but I have never used one before. I've also heard that a replacement amp costs nearly as much as a new unit... A little bit more info I don't think my problem is from over use, yet I still think its something to do with the fuse. The sub went unused for a couple of months (due to me frying my pioneer vsx-vx2av amp) it was just recently when I borrowed my friends sony str-db1070 ( a much less powerful amp) that I decided to hook my sub back up via the speaker-level inputs, and if I remember correctly when I first plugged it into the power point the standard blue light which signifies the unit is active came on. I turned around to put on some music and poof it was dead. So the amp didn't really send a proper signal to the sub to blow it that way. And trust me it is a very robust machine I have given it many workouts I could have mixed up power cords but I'm not sure I have so many that are identical. The main goal now is to try and fix it for as little money as possible

If you have no electronics experience and can't even use a multimeter, you're not going to be able to fix it.

Your best bet is to take it to someone that can fix it for you.

Any directions we give you on here will not be in-depth enough for someone without any know-how at all to be able to follow.

Sorry.
