DTS909 Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 Hows the head unit setup bass level, could be the amp gain is to high, subs not wired correct.

Not enough juice?I'm new to this so help me out please!!! Friend of mine had a 2 ohm stable amp wired to 1 ohm, volume past a certain point or LOW note and it would cut out. Also was BURNING to the touch. 1. Check load the amp is seeing using a DDM 2. check the Fuse requirements for that amp. 3. check all Grounds and power cables and connections, TWICE 4. Is the Amp going into protect mode ? Getting hot ? 5. check voltage with car warm, and while playing. Amp could have a low voltage protector on it. 6. Check to make sure gain isn't all the way up. 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee LaredoPioneer AVH- 3200DVD2/0 Flex-A-Prene Welding Cable (2) Fully Loaded Fi Sp4's dual 1-------> My YouTube Channel <------- Needs more power those woofers will laugh at that turd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoudBimmer Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 your amp goes in protect, because it's not tuned correctly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAGU408 Posted February 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 The bass on the head unit is -5 the subwoofer level is at +5 my bass knob is 3/4 up the gain on the amp is about half way the bass boost is off an so is my subsonic filter. But no the amp does not go in to protect mode everything just shuts off including my head unit an reboots itself within a couple seconds. An I noticed it does it alot more when my headlights are on.

RAGU408 Posted February 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 Oh an the subs are dual 4ohm wired to a 1ohm load. The amp says it's 1ohm stable but it also says its 5000 rms wich I highly doubt it is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
412 CVX Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 do your headlights dim while playing? Just say no to Ground Pounder Customs. My temp system build log More box buildssome cars do over 170db with one sub, so clearly my two 12"s can do that in my car, with my knowledge too! look out bitches! I'm with captain stupid.

skittlesRgood Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 low voltage. your HU is probably going into protect because of it. its either your charging system or bad connections. im guessing bad connections. did you install it yourself? take pictures of all your connections, especially the ground, and post them here. we will be able to help you the easiest if you do that. If I answered you in a well mannered, informative way, you asked a good question or had a good attitude. If I was an asshole, you asked a stupid question or you had a fucktard attitude... or I was in a bad mood.
