if i put the volume too high my amp/subs automatically turn off. why is this? i have a new battery. my system is 2 pioneer 4 ways in front, 2 mtx components in back, Dual - 460W 2-Channel Bridgeable MOSFET Amplifier - XAF460, Dual - 10 Single-Voice-Coil 1000W Bandpass Subwoofer System - XB210D, sony 40x4 headunit. thank you.

try lowering the gain on your amps.

is it going it protect mode?

yeah protect mode it is going into

Amps go into protect when they are running unstable. Perhaps your wire isnt supplying enough power, i suggest 4 ga. Also make sure all your connections and Ground wires are tighten fastened into your chassis or else vibration can cause the amp to kick into protect because a loose groundwire breaks the contact point momentarly.

my amp going into protect mode will not hurt anythin in my car thou right? u know what i mean?

thats why your amp goes into protect, so nothing gets hurt and saves you from blowing a fuse every time it gets unstable. but no nothing should be harmed when it goes into protect.

also check your resistance load, my amp was doing the same thing because i accidently hooked my subs up in parallel, which dropped the resistance level below what it was supposed to be, which will also make your amp go into protect
