[QUOTE="Boulderguy, post: 2606327, member: 572916"] The way to solve this is eliminate possibilities. Try running an Ipod as your HU & see if the same thing happens. Or swap the amp. Definitely not heat-related if what you're saying is true. Off the top of my head I'm thinking it's a connection in the RCA's or spkr wire, maybe a partial short that takes a while to heat up & then has issues. It doesn't really fit the rules of the game but sometimes happens. Along those lines it's also possible that maybe your crossovers or speaker terminals have accumulated moisture that's creating a high-resistance short like this. I had something similiar once where the door speaker terminals where very close to the edge of the door & some thin-plastic-coated dampening material. As the dampening heated up it became more conductive & would partially short the speaker & create the same problems. So again, eliminate possibilities, that's the name of the game. [/QUOTE]
