amp turns off

[moses21]

I got this weird problem. If i turn my amp up to much it will completely turn off and will not turn back on until i unplug it and plug it back in. I am confused why it is doing this. I thought if you had something turned up to high the amp would go into protection mode and not turn itself off. Does anyone know how i can fix this problem?

It sounds like it IS going into protect mode. Then, you're resetting it by unhooking it, then re-wiring it up again. I guess I could be wrong, though. I've never had an amp go into protect mode on me.

it is not going into protection mode. My amp has a light that turns on when i goes in protection. All the power just goes off.
