[QUOTE="dB-r, post: 2740774, member: 574699"] Check the voice coils on your speakers, make sure you don't have a voice coil that has damage and may be lower impedance than it's supposed to be. I have a DVC Kicker Comp VR here at my shop that was like .6ohms on one coil and 1.4 or something on the other, supposed to be 4 ohms each. The speaker still worked, but would eventually kick the amp into protect or blow the amp up. Other than that, check your voltage while the amp is on, it may be dropping too low, bad power or ground connection somewhere. If all that checks out, there may be something going on inside the amp that will need to be repaired. [/QUOTE]
