ok, instead of your remote wire switching on your amps, the remote wire will switch a relay.
the relay will have al ive feed in one end and a live out, when the relay is switched on. take the live out to a dist block and wire your amps, any neons, lights etc to the relay. as soon as u switch your headunit on, relay switches on, evenything comes on at the same time!
relays are about £5 so well worth it!
also if u have a problem somewhere u know to check the relay first!

anymore than 2 amps u need a relay mate, just stops you loosing voltage on the remote cable of the h/u cos its tryin to turn on too many amps

check all your cables, are u using a relay to switch on your amps? hope so!
it could be down to the different amps.

is it that your speakers "pop" when you turn them off ??

cos my ex had that problem... turns out its down to a bad earth, however you normally need to strip most of the ICE out to find the problem.. so she ended up living with that...

also the amp problem she also had.. again sound gallery were baffeled by it (they didnt the install)

as for your Line driver.... i dunno anything about them

Can any1 help me with a few problems i have with my ice?

1. When i turn off the car the speakers seem 2 distcharge and its rather loud.
2. 1 amp turns on when the headunit comes on, then about 10 seconds later the other amp comes on? I sont remember it doing this b4.
3. I have a PLD line driver, but the bass sounds better withoutit, seems 2 fart with the line driver in place.

Any ideas on any of them would be nice.

Thanks :thumbs:
