[QUOTE="Doxquzme, post: 8873613, member: 689267"] Sorry, no worries. "HU" is the head unit. "AMP" is amplifier and "LOC" is a line out converter if you have one. It may be that the gain pot (little turn knob on the amp) is defective on the amp. Instead of regulating the constant volume/voltage on the amplifiers input, it just kinds shorts out and goes full bore. If you had a volume knob on the HU, same thing may apply though apparently that is not the case. I would almost guarantee it is the HU though, suddenly sending higher than normal, excessive output signal to the amp. How is the HU hooked up to the amp? Directly from the HU or from the HU to a line out converter then to the amp? If directly to the amp, via high level speaker inputs or through RCA outs from the LOC or HU to the amp? [/QUOTE]
