system cutting off

[Karlswinslow]

so I'm running a 15" power acoustic mofo on a hifonics brutus elite, i have a voice amp running about 2 10s / 2 8s / 2 6x9's 2 5" and about 6 tweeters. its a bullshit voice amp.. don't even know the name, autotek or something..

problem is, if i play my system hard enough for a little, the whole shit cuts off. and both amps cut off.. i checked the voltage upfront when its playing.. its at about 13 something... then checked the amps straight and when the music cuts it goes to about 4 volts.. i have only a yellow top and a 90amp alt.. any idea what that is?

also... I'm running 2 x12's soon, what alt should i get and would 1 yellow top in front nd one yellow top in back be okay?

4 volts?

List all equipment your running

Wire, speakers, electrical etc everything

[SIDE SHOW]

You hav an amp running 8 speakers and 6 tweeters?

[Chris Strausbaugh]

Well if you're running 8 speakers and 6 tweeters off of one amp there's your problem right there. What's the ohm's on that like .0005 lol

[Karlswinslow]

when the whole system cuts off, from the amps it drops to 4..

but from the battery it stays around 13. even when it cuts off.

[Karlswinslow]

its one of those harbor freight ones.. i believe 8 gauge to the voice amp and 4 gauge to the bass amp

its one of those harbor freight ones.. i believe 8 gauge to the voice amp and 4 gauge to the bass amp

take rcas out of voice amp and see what voltage is
