Hello,
Recently I purchased A Vibe Space SQ12 active subwoofer 1000W RMS 3000W Peak. My car stereo has a special subwoofer output. The problem is that when I connect the subwoofer to the subwoofer output it doesn't produce any sound but just vibrations which get stronger and stronger I push the volume up. If I connect the subwoofer to my front or rear speakers, there is music comming out of it but if I turn up the volume too high the whole system switches off as there have been some kind of overload. The system starts again after I turn the engine off and on again. My car stereo is a Pioneer Avic X1R 4 x 50W RMS.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
THank you in advance

Your stereo's subwoofer output is for providing a signal to a separate amplifier that drives the subwoofer, NOT for connecting directly to a subwoofer itself. You need to buy an amp if you want to use the sub.

Couldn't have said it better myself.
