Ok - #1 your Kenwood what? I'll assume an amp but what model? #2 What sub(s) are you driving with it and what impedence are you showing the amp? #3 How much alternator capacity do you have and what else is in the vehicle that may be a current hog?

If the ground and power connections are secure and solid then my first guess would be either not enough juice from your charging system or too low of an impedence being shown to the amp and it's throwing it into protection mode.

A bit more info would help greatly in being able to try to provide an educated answer as to what might be the problem.

I sent him one as well, Sloan, in response to one he sent me. I think what's most likely is that he's got those Fosgates wired to a final load of 1/2 an ohm and it's throwing the amp into protect mode.

Google KAC-X811D should be easy to find.

How did you wired your sub to the amp? 533RMS x 1 @ 4 ohms Chick Here See Option #2

He is running a pair so he needs to wire them this way-

each sub gets about 500watts rms this way.

I beleive this is the amp I had. I ran my cvr a 1 ohm and it would shut down. The shop I bough it from said they could never get it to run 1 ohm. They tried on two L7 and a couple other subs ma rockford and the like. I ended up trading it in and getting my kicker amp. Couldnt find a picture so I could be wrong. How old is this amp?
