Hey guys, my Alpine h/u turns off when I crank up the tunes to about 20 and then it turns itself back on but the volume is at about 5?? Any idea why it would do this? :confused:

is it the head unit or the amp that turns off? if the head unit it sounds like wiring, if the amp, turn the gains down...
or another thing, if you have a short in the speaker cables coming out of the head unit, it will shut down as the internal amp is getting hot...
there are no amps just h/u
did you just install it?Quote:

when you crank it up does it sound like its losing power then cuts out. and only stays turned on a lower volumes?
Yeah similar to that, I haven't soldered wiring as yet cos I'm getting a 4 channel amp but wanted to listen to music in the mean time.Quote:
