i got 2 12" kenwoods, i hooked them up to a 1200 watt jbl amp. When playing them they will cut out and stp playing for a few seconds, then resume playing. last night the fuse on the power wire blew, so i went from a 30 watt to a 40 watt thinking this might be the problem, but the subs still cut out. also i have an 8 ga power wire. how can i fix the problem

what ohm are the subs? how many voice coils?

how are they wired?

how stable is your amp?

Sounds like you either have a bad wire somewhere or blown subs.

Sounds like they are wired wrong and the amp is going into protect.

the amp jus had to be adjusted, it was pullin too much power and the battery couldnt keep up, but i do need to get a bigger power wire so i can run a bigger fuse
