[QUOTE="BnGRacing, post: 7450375, member: 557400"] Hmm...interesting. Unplug the RCA's going into the amp and use one of those cheapie RCA-to-iPod adapters and use your MP3 player as a source. What we're doing is really isolating the amp from the HU. If the system stays at the same volume, the problem is upstream. If it still changes volume, check to make sure you removed enough paint from your ground source and are at least using a star washer. Hell, take a pic of where you grounded the amp and post it. There's a possibility that it's just a bad place and is causing your amps to go into fits. I had a similar problem with a bad ground under the hood of my car causing the headlights/dashlights to glow really-really bright for a couple seconds and then go away. Your problem reminds me of that as both an alternator & PPI amp are regulated. [/QUOTE]
