hamel52 Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 I have an alpine pdx 1.1000 amp hooked up to 2 12" kenwood subs 4ohm single voice coil just have them hooked up straight, when i turn up the volume over 20 the amp powers down and then i have to flip my remote switch off and on to get it back. Just wondering if anyone knows why the amp is shutting down at high volume i have the gain all the way down on the amp too? any body know the solution?

Guest Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 gain all the way down bass boost all the way up? btw where is the gain knob pointing to (example) .2v or 8v. .2v is all the way up and 8v is all the way down. but its probably a shitty ground you got, or too small of power wire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
