I have a head unit run to an EQ then to a crossover and on to two separate amps. One amp runs the 4 interior speakers and the other runs two JL 10's. The problem is then when I am driving and i let off the gas and press the brake the sound cuts out for a second then builds back up. What gives. I have been doing car audio installs for almost ten years and never had this problem. ANY Ideas??????

Check your fuse holder at the battery and all your connection point. I had a car that came in with a loose fuse holder. The same result, the amp would go on and off. It took a bit of time to locate the problem, but eventually it was fix. From experience, if the equipment goes on and off when you are driving majority off the time you can conclude it's a loose connection.

The other thing which I can think off that would give you a similar result is if you had a sudden drop in the votage when you are applying the brake.

thanks. I figured it out just a few hours ago. My EQ was going dead. I thnk it might have been damaged sometime before i installed it. THanks alot for the reply.
