Rmichael91 Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 Your running your front and rears off the hu right? The onboard amp could be overheating. But the cap doesn't help the subs either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Absher Posted August 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 yes they are off the HU..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 headunit amp is probably heating up. running speakers off the headunit sucks anyway. you should seriously consider running a 4 channel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notorious97200 Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 Get rid of the cap, get rid of the rear speakers, and tell us the results.

Focal ES 100 K in front doors, and Dayton RS 180 for midbass under the front seats. 2 SSA DEMONS 10" subs, in a 2.6 ft3 ported box. SecondSkin Damplifier on front doors, and Luxury Liner Pro for the cargo area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe to go easy on the head unit ? And because you can't even hear them in the back. I think it's a waste of power and money, unless you're going for a big demo car and you need a lot of speakers to play with doors open, with a huge bass. I'm not an expert, I just speak off my own experience. I used to have rear speakers, until I noticed that I did not need them. I changed those rear speakers several time but I was never able to appreciate them while driving.
