[QUOTE="DRBOOM, post: 8669845, member: 676005"] Hey mate, Thanks for raising your issue here. Since you got it installed from a shop, you may still have warranty for the work done so best to take it down and let them sort out the issue for you. If you are curious about possible issue that may be causing the issue, I would thing of possible causes which are: [LIST][*]faulty / loose subwoofer connection; [*]possible loose subwoofer amplifier connection; [*]possible loose ground connection; [*]possible loose connections behind the head unit; [*]possible faulty RCA cable running to the subwoofer amplifier; [/LIST] With car audio, connections do tend to loosen over time, and it could just as simple as the RCAs becoming loose behind the head unit. The shop will go through these possible causes starting from the sub and amp diagnosis first then if the issue remains, then it would be necessary to remove the head unit to pry out the rear connections for probable causes. :fro: Hope I have shed some light in your issue, and no doubt your installer would rectify the issue with you, and I would say , its probably a loose connection somewhere along the line, that is if you don't abuse your system and drive it to distortion where equipment failure is possible. If you are new to the scene, educate yourself in knowing the difference from sound and distortion so when you do hear distortion, you can turn your system down. :veryhapp: [/QUOTE]
