My amp gets extremly and then cuts off after awhile. I do have them bridged together as well. Could it be a ground problem? Can anyone let me know a solution? thank you. |

This setup is in a 99 gmc Yukon and sounds great up till they cut off. and if I even try to cut the amp up at all it gets hotter faster. |
