[QUOTE="tplaya07, post: 1255926, member: 552766"] So, it is going into protect mode? How exactly do you have your wiring from the battery to the amp? 2 seperate runs (1 with 8g and 1 with 4g)? Or, do you have a 4 guage or bigger run from the battery to a distrobution block? Get a multimeter and put the leads on the + and - on the amp. Observe the voltage, and have a friend turn the system up to where this problem normally occurs. See if there is a big voltage drop when this happens. This will tell you if there is a inadequate voltage problem putting the amp into protect. Another thing would be to double check all wiring to the speakers. You can also disconnect one speaker at a time to see if you have a short or some problem with wiring to one of the speakers, causing the amp to go into protect. [/QUOTE]
