92 SC400 Nakamichi amp/speaker issue
Hi everyone! Noob 2 the board but am proficient in forums so I have performed searches but have not come up with anything that might assist me.
Q. I am having issues with my stereo, complete left side works fine but when I balance over to the right side the volume is very low/soft.
Balance right - fade front (low volume).
Balance right - fade back (low volume very little bass).
Balance left - fade front (loud).
Balance left - fade back (loud and has bass).
Anyone have any ideas to what my problem is? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Q. I have read on the forum that there's 2 amps on the Nak system, 1 running the subs and 1 running all others and both are located under the CD changer correct?

That sounds like a difficult problem to troubleshoot!

Not a fuse...
Not sure how advanced your skills are but here is what I suggest. If you take a voltage meter and look at the voltage of what your head unit is outputting before the amp then you can have an idea if it’s the head unit or the amp. You could have a problem with either one, but I wouldn't expect that it’s both. You can compare the readings from your left and right channels to see if they are close to the same. If they are...then I would do the same thing with outputs from the amp. You should be able to locate the signal degradation somewhere.
