Why does my amp do this?


One Way

Recommended Posts

Hey all, recently I've been having bad luck with my amp. When I play at full tilt it goes into protect and comes back. Now the only pattern I've noticed is that it usually does it at full blast and mostly on songs that have a lot of highs in the mix.

It's weird because my deck goes to 35/35 and if the problem happens I drop it to 32/35 and I'm good all day without it happening. Some songs it doesn't even do it.

Maybe it's going out already, I've had it for a long time already.

Here's a vid showing u guys what happens

Notice the pattern it cuts out... Just when a high note come on.

Amp is soundstream dtr4.500

It's stable to 2 ohms and that's what my components are

2 -4 ohm stereo and 4 ohm bridged?

Your deck goes up to 35 and you play it at 35?..... I'm thinking you got some distortion action which is just clipping away....

Maybe try setting your gains correctly and see what that does for you - maybe find a DD1 and see where your head unit distorts

Check out StoneSounds to see my recent builds.Or look at the Flying White Facebook Page!

I do have a dd1 lol that's how I tuned everything. And even so I lowered the amp gain a few clicks
