Question about Rockford Fosgate Punch P5002 Car Audio Amplifier
Your problem is probably that your amp is starving for power. I have a few questions.
1.What size wire are you using for power and ground on the amp?
2.Whats the impedance of your Sub-woofer?
3. How long are the power wire and ground wires.
For starters... I'm going to guess that you usually lose the subwoofer at lower frequencies. The lower the frequency the more power it requires to drive the sub. You also might want to check if you are running the amp bridged but mainly if your amp is trying to push a 50hz tone at high volume, If your alternator cannot provide the required Amperage. The amp will cut out. A capacitor can improve this. Run a power wire from the battery to the positive terminal of the capacitor then from that same terminal run a positive wire to the amp. Connect the ground on the capacitor directly to the body of the car...make sure to scrape off any paint to make a good ground connection.
