Question About Amps Shutting Down

Okay, here’s the scoop. I have my 4 Boston Pro 12’s firing down and they hit hard! But, on certain songs or when they hit REALLY hard and deep my Rockford Fosgate 1500bd shuts down. I think it goes into protection mode and shuts itself off because when I turn the power to it off then back on its back on bumpin’ right away. Anyone have ANY ideas? Thanks in advance!

 
I can think of three possiblities ...
1) Impedance is too low. How do you have your subs wired to the amp ?

2) Gain/Boost too high.

3) Bad ground.




The amp is seeing 2ohms, I think the ground is solid (4gauge) but I will check it again. I have tried it with the gain way down, and still seen it shutdown. Thanks for input bro.
