No other lights turn on when my sub cuts out on the amp, just the power light.When it cuts out are there any othe lights on the amp coming on?
It is a good idea to sand the ground regardles, but based on what you are saying, that likely isn't the problem. If the ground were the problem, the amp would cut out as soon as you turned up the volume instead of after a few minutes.
You said that the subs come back on when you wiggle the connectors for the sub. That indicates a loose connection. It is possible that the setscrew vibrates loose after it warms up. Loctite is your friend.
If that's the case (not possible really) then the gain is set too high and the installer is an idiot. Turn down the gain. Fixing the ground might help a bit, but it is most likely a gain problem.No other lights turn on when my sub cuts out on the amp, just the power light. The guy that did my install said my subs are drawing too much power than my amp can put out thats why my subs cut out. Is he right? If so, what solutions do i have?
Are my subs drawing too much power from my amp than my amp can handle? Thats why my amp is cutting power to the subs?300RMS x 2 powered by 500RMS amp.
Do i need a bigger amp?
