Amps keep shutting off!! Please help

[profoundwill 10+ year member]

Okay all of a sudden I am having a problem with my system, it was playing fine at first but now I am having some issues!! If I turn the volume up loud all the amps will shut off, but before it does is makes a static like noise, and it only does this after it has been plaing for a little while maybe 10 minutes or so. The weird thing is if I cut the car off and turn it right back on everything will power up and play fine for about 10 minutes again. Also sometime after it cuts out after a while the highs amp may come back on without turning the car off or anything. I have checked my ground and everything looks okay, what could the problem be?? Please help!!

Sounds like you have a loose connection on one of the power or ground connections. The bad connectiion causes high resistance and thus high heat. It also causes a voltage drop and if the voltage drop is enough, it will cuse your amps to go into undervoltage protection mode.
