Just wondering if I dont have adequate power to the amp, will it result in subs popping? i have not upgraded my battery and alternator until next week.

I have tested it on 3 different subs and it does the same thing.. any help would work. thx

 
Can you check your voltage going into the amp? Also check your ground wire connections.
Just ideas until somebody who really knows what they are doing gets here
will do on lunch break. thanks

 
when bass kicks in, it drops to 11 volts.. at some times it would have dropped to 10.. tried a different amp didn't have this issue.. maybe bad amp?
