you might be overheating the amp and it will go into protection mode

also if it is getting a clipped signal from the headunit it will go into protection mode, this keeps you from damaging the subs

what u mean by not enough wiring :err:

[derbyboyred]

not thick enough cable what are the specs for the amp and sub(s)??

[BABY-T]

upgrade ur power and earth cable to 4awg and turn down ur sub on ur stereo to 3/4 then alter ur amp the gain n tht to the music u play

[BABY-T]

also ur earth is crossing ur power in tht pic if they touch u cud blow it

[harp]

thats an old pic, ther not touching each other now. i have got 4awg. got a vibe box 2 (600 watts) and two subs (300) each
i decided that i going to ditch this and have one sub and that amp and a new design :(

turn the gain down!

could be ya earth conecting on an off

[dccddirect]

are you running two different subs off the same amp?!

[polar87]

it oculd be that your battery isnt powerful enough? i also have the same problem, i have a 55ah battery which isnt running my amp properly, its underpowering. try upgrade the battery to a bigger one, this is your cheapest option.

turn the gain down!

turn the gain down and it kind of helps :D

[trixta]

ye i think that last option is slightly cheaper than getting a new battery...
