Alpine amp and Alpine sub problem

[VTECking]

My frined just got a 10" alpine sub and alpine amp w/stock head unit and he just installed it yesterday. just today when the bass hits it sometimes cuts out the bass entirely for like a second or two and then it comes back on again. Can yall tell us what we should do to fix this problem. thanks

yeah especially the ground. make sure its on bare metal. this is usually an overlooked problem.

Check for secure connections...power and ground. Double, and triple check the main power wire fuse. Many times, the AGU (glass style) fuses "look" good, but are not.

Also, verify that the impedence (Ohm load) of the sub is proper for the amp. Make sure the sub is not blown.

Just a few things to look for.....
