my amps keeps cutting off. at first i thought it was the amp, but every amp i connect cuts off after about 10 minutes after use. i not sure but i think its a problem with my remote turn on. I have 2 sources connected to a distrubution block (crossover and sub-amp) the crossover never shuts down but the amp shuts down in 5 or 10 minutes. COULD SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME I'VE CHECKED EVERYTHING AND I DON'T HAVE A CLUE!!!!!!!!!
I have it wired directly from the distribution block. I have a 4ga wire going to the block directly from the battery and 8ga from the block to the amp. my rear door speakers have a factory amp that uses the same remote turn on that i had to use to turn on my amp & x-over. when the amp shuts off my rear door speakers also shuts off, but the x-over remains on.
these are pictures of the inputs and the speaker conections. i have the right and left inputs from the x-over going to the 2 top inputs on the amp labeled blt.1 & blt.2. the switch is on sub and the other 2 switches are set to on. i have the speakers bridged according to the diagram of the speaker set up. its sound good for about 5 minutes then it shuts off.

you need to check your impendenance level and re-wire your ohms if your amp gets hot before it shuts off
