Default (Solved)Speakers cut out after new head unit installed
I installed a new head unit along with an Alpine 4 channel amp to power sub and front speakers.

Anytime I go over 7 on the volume, the speakers cut in and out.

Sounds like you wired something wrong.

I’ll check, but I I don’t think so. I’m thinking it’s more of the setting on the amp. Because otherwise it’s perfect.

Did you use ground/ power wires in the correct gauge?

I used the ones that powered the factory amp.
