Hello,
I am having an issue with the electrical system for my stereo/amps. When I am playing certain songs at high volumes, I experience many short duration's (approx less than 1 sec. each) where my system will just turn off and then right back on. At the same time that this happens, there is usually a loud popping noise from my sub woofers, as if they were bottoming out or scraping badly in the bore. I checked the wiring for each sub and they are sitting at 2 ohms. I put them in parallel for a 1 ohm load on the amp. I monitored my voltage at the battery and at the amps while I was playing at full volume and the lowest voltage I saw at the amp was 11.8 volts. I know thats kind of low but doesnt seem low enough to shut off the amp. I'm just not sure why it would do this on some songs but not others.
