To start, yes I'm well aware of how terrible this company's products are.
However, I am installing a 1,000 watt, 4-channel pyle amplifier to go along with my four Pyle speakers. I just got through wiring the entire system up and the receiver works perfectly. However, the amplifier's "protection" LED lights up but the "power" LED won't light up (meaning that the amp won't come on, and therefore the speakers won't work. If I pull the RCA cables in and out, the amp lights up for an instant and then shuts off. Also, I am POSITIVE that the 8 gauge power wire I have run to it is run correctly. As for the REM wire, I have it connected to the "power antenna" wire on the back of the receiver (correct?). WHAT AM I DOING WRONG????

Assuming it's keyed source not a direct battery (always on). Since the head unit doesn't have amp remote signal, this is the best way to do it. THe down side is that the amp will be on anytime the car is running whether or not your stereo is turned on. I believe there is an extra accessory power connection in the fuse panel. That would likely be the most convenient place to tap into.

on the deck should be blue or blue/white stripe, if it aint working just try jumping from the power on your amp to the remote to make sure the amp is not bunk. also make sure none of your wires have been damaged causing a short
