Amp goes into protection durring HEAVY bass
When I really crank the volume, the amp will go into protection for a second or two after about 10 seconds of hard bass. I ran a meter on it while this happens and my voltage drops from 14.7v to 12.19v and maybe a little lower. I drive a 2000 Mitsubishi Montero Sport XLS. I think it has an 85 amp alternator.
1 Kenwood Excelon X859 (4.5v pre-amps) 1 Cadence A7HC 1 12" DD Audio 3512b @ 2ohm in a 2.57cu" box ported at 35hz 4 gauge power 2 gauge ground Thanks for any help!

Re: Amp goes into protection durring HEAVY bass
Your voltage is either dropping too low to support the amp, or the amp is overheating and going into thermal protection. Have you upgraded the big 3?
