I'm still wondering what kind of load you're presenting to the amp. I ran a sony explode amp in one of my systems pushing fosgate 12's with a 2ohm load and it caused the amp to overheat. After doing that for a moderate period of time my explod eventially exploded. 1 month out of warranty of course.

pham- if your head unit is shutting down from bass, you need to check your battery or alternator, i bet your battery is on it's last leg, just b/c it starts the car doesn't mean it is not bad, i had the same exact problem, new battery=no more problem for me

Are your subs 8ohm or 4ohm? Are they wired in parellel or series?

as in each speaker is 2ohm and you have them wired parellel or you have 4ohm speakers wired in parallel giving you a final 2ohm load?

i think he is getting a two ohm load after wired,
pham- weird, hmmmm, not sure what to make of that, usually if radio ****s down it's a lack of power from batt or alternator
