So my amp is moody

Post by HazmatJeff » Wed Jun 09, 2010 9:29 am

I have an MTX amp and everything it connected correctly with no issues anywhere. The problem is it will work for a bit then the amp will shut off and not turn on for 10 minutes or so. No fuses are blown and everything is secure. The subs aren't overheating and are completley cool. The amp is also cool to the touch. He gain and bass boost are both at halfway.

What could be the issue?

gain does not equal volume. it is used to level match the incoming signal to the amp. saying it is at halfway means nothing as an amp can produce it's full power at "0".

what subs are you running?

how are they wired?

what model is the amp?

what type of power/ground do you have?
