I had a kenwood amp about 6 months ago, never had that problem. my friend has one and the same thing happens to him though, hisproblem is that it getts too hot cause he put it between his box and this back seat in his olds alero and its squished between the two and over heads and shuts off, thats what happens to his.

Thats just how those amps work...sadly.

The lexus I built I used the same ones (kac 9152D)...one for each HX2 15...@ 2ohm they protect a lil too easily. But thats all they're doin.

If you wanna beat on it harder than it will let you...upgrade to a more solid amp.

It's kinda to be expected from this inexpensive of an amp...but I agree it sux and it pissed me off when the owner of the lexus (and the Jenky mustang I put the same one in) told me it was doin this.

You need a RF T1k, Kicker zx1000.1 or similar amp.
