[QUOTE="TerminatorSRT4, post: 2604417, member: 573705"] I'm having a problem and need help figuring it out, I'm new here and this is my first thread, so go easy on me [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif[/IMG] Anyway, here is my problem: I've had my audio system in my car for almost 4 years now. Up until recently it has worked perfectly fine. Lately though I will be driving along and out of nowhere my mids and highs will start to have a little static and start fading in and out and within about 10-15 seconds they will just completely die and I'll be left with just subs. If I turn off my head unit (which also turns off the amps) and then turn it back on, it will be ok for a couple of minutes but then start doing the same thing. If I just press pause when it starts fading out (which doesn't turn off the amps) and then press resume, the mids and highs will still be gone. So to get them working I need to turn off the system and then turn it back on after waiting awhile, but they'll still fade out after a few minutes. So this has led me to believe that my amp is overheating possibly. But the thing is...the system worked perfect for all this time until out of nowhere recently it started doing this. My amp for my mids and highs is located behind my backseat and I'm even tried driving around with the seat folded down to give it better ventilation, but it still fades out and I have to turn the system off. So is this my amp or my head unit? If it was the head unit then wouldn't all the sound go out, including the subs? I'm just trying to figure out if I need to buy a new amp or what I can possibly do, can anybody please help me?!
