If ypur amps shut off it could be a loose wire grounding out.. if they are still on and not in protect i ould check the fuses number 1..

Check the wiring inside the box, I'll bet one of the wires maybe came loose

Wait your WHOLE sytem shut off like speakers and sub? Cause I remember I was bumpin my sub like 3rd day I had it in and sub shutoff all of a sudden. My speaker wire had come out. Check that all wiring is connected since you say both your amps are still powered. It shouldnt be ground wire issue since the amps are still powering. Besides speaker wire, check your rca(s).

Are you running one rca to one amp then running an rca from that amp to the other? Or do you have individual rcas going to each amp? Cause I was going to say if its only one, maybe your rca came loose or something because that would cutoff the sound on both amps. That or both RCAs came loose at the same time somehow.

It could be a thousand different things, and you didn't give us shit for information...

Check all your connections, grab a dmm and check all your voltages.

Update:

So I figured out the problem. =(

Apparently my fuse holder by my battery was bad. When I used my DMM on my amp I always had about 12v going to the amp. But if you wiggled the **** thing (fuse holder) it would sometimes only read 5v. The metal inside of the holder had this weird bend to it. I replaced the fuse holder and now everything works out fine. Thanks guys.
