[QUOTE="rlwjr1, post: 8688627, member: 675375"] I have a 4guage hot wire going to a distribution block, with two 8 gauge hot wires going to two amps. one 8 gauge is going to a 380 watt RMS class AB Amp going to door speakers and 6 x 9s in the back. The other 8 gauge hot wire is going to a Mono block class D Alpine Amp pushing 500 watts rms to a single 750 watt subwoofer. I can turn the subwoofer off and turn it up as loud as I want, no problems. But, with the subwoofer turned back up, when I turn the volume up to the sound I want, the system, sometimes ti turns the breaker completely off as,, I have a breaker instead of a fuse, It is a 100 watt breaker. Other times the sound goes off , then comes back on about 3 seconds later. I also have an 8 gauge ground wire going to each amp. I switched the ground wire around. It did not help. I switched the hot wires around , and it did not help. Any ideals please. The system sounds great, with my JVC 13 band equalizer head unit and the alpine amp hits the single subwoofer just right. But , it irritates the hell out of me either shutting off or especially / kicking the breaker off . My alternator is also 110 amp alternator, and battery is less then 6 mons ol d [/QUOTE]
