3vil Posted March 20, 2016 Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 Sounds like a loose connection somewhere is giving you an intermittent fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J_west07 Posted March 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 Yeah I dunno everytime I turn it up high it cuts off. I guess I could go ahead and get rid of this 2g CCA wire and run my 1/0 ofc sky-high wire and see if that fixes it and maybe move my ground which i really really don't think it's that but I just don't know what else to do.

ShadeTreeMechanic Posted March 20, 2016 Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 How did you adjust the gain? Maybe you are overdriving it to the point it is shutting off? 91 C350 Centurion conversion ( Four Door One Ton Bronco) 250A Alternator (Second Alternator Coming Soon) G65 AGM Up Front / Two G31 AGM in Back Pioneer 80PRS CT Sounds AT125.2 / CT Sounds 6.5 Strato Pro component Front Stage CT Sounds AT125.2 / Lanzar Pro 8" coax w/compression horn tweeter Rear Fill FSD 5000D 1/2 ohm (SoundQubed 7k Coming Soon) Two HDS315 Four Qubes Each 34hz (Two HDC3.118 and New Box Coming Soon) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J_west07 Posted March 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 Nah def not I've got it 1/8th of the way up. I really think this amp was already fucked up. I'm sending it back shit sucks! I just wanna bang! Damnit I just can't afford a 1200 dollar amp right now. I work in the oilfield and were super slow.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To rule out that it's definitely the amp, you might want to get ahold of another amp to test, if it cuts out then its your wiring but if not then it's the amp....

MotorCityFats13 Posted March 21, 2016 Report Share Posted March 21, 2016 the amount that the gain is turned has nothing to do with power unless you know what the line voltage is... my gain is set properly and its only 1/8th turn.... 6v preouts on an amp that is over sized for my sub.... very easy to achieve 1200rms @ 1ohm with an amp that dyno'ed at 1700rms @ 1ohm with you having it at .5 who knows what 1/8th turn really means...

J_west07 Posted March 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2016 Well the sub barely moves. It's a sp4 on a 1500 rms amp and its at 2 ohm now. It's not distorted or anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
islandpride684 Posted March 21, 2016 Report Share Posted March 21, 2016 Here is a suggestion...since you said you jumped the remote and it came back on and now it's working but it's not again.....run a whole new remote wire from the HU to the amp directly without routing it under the carpet or however your other remote is ran....see if the problem goes away...process of elimination sucks but it helps narrow it down to the root of all checks good....

J_west07 Posted March 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2016 I've been doing process of elimination and when I first installed the amp it wouldn't come on and I ran a new remote wire ontop if the carpet straight back there then it worked. So I've already done that. I've already contacted sonic electronix I'm gonna send the amp back in. Thanks for the help tho guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
