[QUOTE="punchme, post: 4042346, member: 586050"] I have 2 amps and I was trying to run my subs from my 2 channel amp and everything else off my 4 channel amp...My 2-channel won't run my subs, it keeps cutting out in protection mode. I know to start with ground wires, but what is considered a good ground? amps are either going to come on or not, so with a bad ground they won't come on at all. I rewired everything, and then rewired again, this time using 4- gauge alll the way to the distributer block and then had to downgrade to 8 gauge to my amps. I rewired my woofers. I'm using good speaker wire that came off a roll, I cleaned the battery good..2-channel is cutting out on protection overload as soon as I put power to it. My subs are 10 inch 4ohm P1 subs, which I think are trash. I already burned up 2 JL's and 2 Sony's which I think are bigger junk. I've owned Fosgate stuff all my life. The new stuff seems to be junk. Thank you kindly for any help in advance. [/QUOTE]
