I finally installed this power amp for my 1998 Rav4 stock player. I also installed this converter from my speaker wires to go to amp RCA input.
I noticed that if turned the volume up my amp quits but I know I still have power because the LED from the AMP unit still on. What I do i turned the player OFF then ON the amp comes on as well but it quits again. I have two channel on this but I only have 1 sub so i brigged it (in-series). Is this right

Are you SURE the woofer voice coils are in SERIES? Amp + to one woofer +, the amp - to the woofer's OPPOSITE -, and a jumper between the remaining two terminals?
If you are wired in parallel, you are presenting a 1 ohm load to the amplifier, and that's why it's shutting down. Re-check your woofer's connection, and re-post. Use a DVM, and tell us what the resistance is...

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."
