[QUOTE="yne721, post: 1246771, member: 563261"] let me explain the situation.. i had an old JVC HU with 4 crappy interior speakers in my mazda 626. I wanted a subwoofer, so i bought an Orion 600D and a 12'' subwoofer. I went and had it installed at best buy(i know) and it worked fine for a couple of minutes. Well then the Interior speakers all cut out, and the subwoofer kept working. The interiors are not running off the amp, they are running off the hu. i thought the speakers might be blown, but they aren't because a. they don't make any noise and b. every now and then they cut back on, and they'll be on for a couple seconds then they'll turn off. so then i thought maybe i was driving the internal amp in my HU into protection mode or something, so I bought a brand new head unit(pioneer premier 770) had that installed with 4 new speakers. Rockford Fosgate Power 4'' for the front deck, and 2 Sony XPlod for the rear deck(i will be buying better rear speakers eventually) when i had Car Tunes install the Head Unit, i told them i needed them to check my sub/amp install because there was a problem, and i explained it to them, and they said they would. well i picked up my car, drove to work, drove to the party store on break, drove back to work and everything was fine. Then on my next break i went out and sat in my car, and all the interiors cut out again. i know it has to be the amp/sub because i have never had a problem like this before. So I was thinking i should just go back to best buy(since my installation is under warranty) and tell them the problem, and if they can fix it i'll be happy, but if they say it's fixed and it ends up not being fixed again, then i'll just tell them i want them to completely uninstall the amp/sub and reinstall it the right way first. do any of you know what the problem might be so i can steer them in the right direction if they can't figure it out?
