Amp chopping/cutting out problem

[jmkanek 10+ year member]

I just got a saz2500d hooked up in the integra, and im getting a weird issue.

Starting at low volumes it acts like its chopping the signal/ kinda cuttting out quickly but not.

its very strange, it will still get loud but its like the signal cuts in and out

all my grounds are solid, electrical is more then enough, new knu rcas, new remote wire ran

wired at 1.8 ohms, anyone seen an amp do this before

Could certainly be an internal amp issue.
