These amps want a 4 ohm speaker load to produce there full 125watts of clean output,
Is your 18" speaker the original?
In terms of volume and clean punch the amp May need to have its two main power supply filters replaced, especially if the amp has sat for long periods without being powered up.

When the mod is done to add a grounded power cable all that needs to done is to cut the death cap lead off at the switch and bolt down the ground wire from the new power cable to the chassis.
This assumes that the hot and neutral of the new cable are hooked up right, as in white to white and black to black

Why you got the shock would lead me to think that one of the two amps is not grounded right, or the outlet one of them was plugged into was not grounded .

What does the K400 have 4 channels or just two?
