sub cuts out
 

i recently bought an alpine mrpm450 to power my 8 in kicker l5 wired up at 2 ohms, my problem is that at no specific time my sub will cut out. my amp light stays on but the sub will stop for an unpredictable amount of time, sometimes a second, sometimes closer to 5 seconds. what could be the problem? it is only my sub that does this, my speakers powered by a seperate amp never do

Maybye you have a dual 2 ohm sum,kicker has been known to **** up

no, its dual 4, its labeled as dual 4 and i checked it wit a dmm. i thought at first that maybe the amp was gettin hot but its not, itll even cut out like 2 min after i start my car

check the tinsel leads to the voice coil. they have a history of breaking but not all the way causing them to cut out for seemingly no reason at all.

my friends kenwoods r doin the same thing tho in his car

but ya, ill give that a shot
