how do you have it wired? if theyre not wired right, the ohm ratings are my be off. that would cause the amp to clip. if it is messed up, Adrenaline Tuning can repair it for you.

Yeah, most likely you are trying to run it at a too low of an Ohm load. It also make sure your power and ground wires match as far as gauge. I see people all the time have a 4 gauge power wire and a 8 gauge ground wire. Another problem with that is mixing brands. This is because some brands 4 gauge kits are truly 8 gauge...it is just sorrounded with tons of rubber to make it look like it a 4 gauge. So if you had a true 4 gauge on the power and a cheap 4 gauge on the ground...you could be getting the same effect.

well, I have the 4 channel bridged so Im running 2 channels just using the sub(single 4ohm) for a left and 4 speakers for the mids and highs using the right (channel1 and channel3). Yes, I know I have no fade or balance, I have both sides wired to give me a 4 ohm load on each channel. I ran this amp in my 96 civic with the same wiring plan. The only difference is I am using a different brand 4 gauge power and ground plus the amp is in a chevy with an ls1 motor now. I know better than using a smaller ground than the power cable. I hope my new power cables aren't an issue or my chevy! The ground is only 3ft long and my power cable is about 16-17ft long. I really hope its just the amp! Im probably gonna add some tweeters to lay on the dash and rewire the mids and highs so i can at least have balance. I have no blown fuses either.

I hope my 4 gauge is true 4 gauge since the old 4 gauge was purchased in a kit for like $30 at a flea market. From what I can remember the new power cable seems to be similar in thickness to the old one. The insulation was blue for the power and clear for the ground. Now My power is Red and ground is brown. Ill see if i can dig up some pics on what brands i had/have. The old RCA patch cables weren't shielded and the new ones are. I think I had a noise problem which could have been a ground issue, but Im not having the noise issue anymore with the shielded wires. And yes I know not to route the power cables near the RCA cables.
