i dunno why it does it but wen i put my headunits volume to about 20 all the bass songs shut off the sub and i got to restart the head unit to get the sub workin again
what amp you using? it sounds like you running the amp to hard and its clippin or overheating and going into protection mode, try turning the gains down
your amp cant handle the voltage that the head unit is giving it so it goes into protection mode and shuts off.
short term solution - turn the gain down on the amp so it isnt being worked so hard.
long term solution - if you want that much bass or more get a better amp

yes totally agree...you have set the gain too high and this is clipping and leading the amp to go into protection mode as it is overheating
so turn ur gains or if u have a bass booster down and that should solve it from cutting out
Lots of the same solutions.
Not really helpful money wise
Fair chance it could be your amps earthing, its happened to me before.
Make sure your amp has a solid earth & solid power supply
An amp going into protection usually isnt caused straight away by going to a higher volume, generally from experience it will occur Intermittently and not all the time.
It could be the load but then again i think it would still happen at lower volumes.
check the grounding
i had an issue with the grounding in my old car
when the bass would come on the protection light will come on at the same time
if i turned it up louder the light would come on stronger and the amp would cut off
put a metal washer between the bolt head and the connector and bolted it back down into the chassis and it was all good
