[QUOTE="ImmortalFreak, post: 7272030, member: 616415"] So I was recently having problems with my headlights flickering and even my head unit and my Cadence ZRS-C65 turning off on a couple different occasions. Well, I assumed it was a bad ground, so I regrounded the amp and now those problems appear to be fixed, but I am left with this next problem: Whether or not my RCA cables are plugged into my Cadence amp, when the volume on my head unit is turned up 3/4 volume or very close to it, it causes the Cadence amp to cut in and out despite the gain setting being I have an 8 AWG wire running to my 4-channel amp which is powering ID CTX65's and a 4 AWG wire running to my Cadence, which pushes two ID10D2v3's. Both power wires are equipped with the appropriate size inline fuses at the battery. So I guess my questions would be 1) Does this represent a possible grounding issue with the 4-channel amplifier? 2) If not, would running two seperate power wires from the battery (which is what I've done, seeing as I bought an unfused distribution block... I will eventually grab a fused distro, but in the meantime I just want to listen to my new install haha) rather than one wire to a distribution block cause this? 3) And if neither of these, do you have any suggestions?

In the meantime I'm going to go ahead and find a new ground for the 4-channel just to test it. [/QUOTE]
