What will cause my amp to flash the protection light when the bass hits certain lows. I am currently running a 1ohm load to a 1ohm stable massive N4 but it is overheating after a while gain has never been over half, I did the big 3 and it stop my voltage drop for a while but it is still pulling a lot. Im think I might have to bump up alt and ad a 2nd batter to my exisiting kinitic thats in place for my system. Any suggestions.
