    what amp?

    you seem to ask lots of "easy" questions

    your trouble shooting skills seem to be somewhat lacking.

    fail

    anyway, assuming its not a monoblock, set the crossover to "full" or "high pass" not "low pass"

    if its a monoblock, then it doesn't do full range.

    how many channel amp is it?

    it sounds like you're trying to hook the speakers up to the same channel the subs are on, which if the low pass filter is on, you will only be getting low frequencies.

    you need to hook the speakers up to a different pair of channels than the sub.

    LOL

    What sort of head-unit are you using?
    Are you trying to connect a pair of speakers to the amp as well as a subwoofer? If so its not really possible unless its a 4ch.

    Its a possibility that the RCAs have been connected to the sub preouts rather than the speaker preouts on the head-unit, or some units have a switchable RCA output from full range to subwoofer.

    Sounds like your headunit only has a sub output that will just send bas frequencies to your amp... might wanna get an head unit with 3 x RCA outputs.
