check your speaker wires both on the box and on the amp..check the ground wire on chasis and amp

you may just have a short in one of the wire...
are all of your speaker chipping out or just the subs?
if its all you speakers then id say its your ground

SOmetimes when the amp get to hot, it'll cut power automatically til it cools, then power up again. Check to see if your amp is cutting on/off.

what you wanna do with the ground is:
scrape the paint off the metal with like a screwdriver then get a piece of sandpaper...sandpaper that shit until you see metal then drill a screw in with the ground...the ground has to be secure and cannot move around at all. if you dont have luck with a screw nut and bolt that bitch down...

ground wire should be less than 3 ft.

he means that where you have your ground connected...make sure that you sand off all the paint under and around the connector so that way it touches the bare metal. And also check your remote wire. Its usualy a suspect in faulty car audio.

that shit comes out the back of the aftermarket head unit and goes to the amp...it draws the power lead to the amplifier (blue wire usually i think). id check the ground first and all the connections on the amp, first. then if that doesnt make a difference pop your head unit out and check those connections.



if you have a stock headunit its a whole different story...which i wont explain because if you have subs and an amp you should have at least some sort of aftermarket head unit, i dont understand the point of having subs and amp with stock radio it sucks bad...
