Ok i recently connected car subs to a car amp in my house. Problem im having is that after connecting the car amp to my home amp, the home amp cuts the subs out when i crank it at all. You can see the lights dim and notice that the home amp is having all its power drawn.

I thought that by connecting the car amp it would power the car amps itself. Is there something i am missing here? How do i fix this problem.

ALso i dont have the high level input connected, is this neccesary? Right now i am thinking the power suppply is too weak and is causing the home amp to supply the extra power needed for the subs. Does this sound right? if so would connecting another power supply in series solve the problem.

Last thing i have my subs setup up with resistors making them equal out to 8 ohms each (since i had them connectedf to the home amp for a while). Will this cause any problems with the car amp. I'm thining it won't since it just basically underpowering it.
