I installed a system in my 2000 dodge neon. GREAT GRAND WONDERFUL. I love it but the problem is that sometimes I will be listening to my system and all of the sudden the subs with like pop like hit automatically when they are not suppose to. It occurs most often when i turn the music completely down to 0 or turn the radio off, they like hit not really hard but like a boom, boom , boom really fast (no paticular pattern or time) Do you know how to help this at all? I have a capacitor in there to if that helps you guys out. I'm running 4 gauge power and ground all stinger. I got a ground distrubtion block , 150 amp fuse , stinger dream series rca cables? Do you know what this is ? It's been bugging me. PLEASE HELP !! THANKS

Matthew

Check all of your power connections on your sub amp and let us know the results.

Check your ground at your radio and ensure it is good & that your RCA's are not grounding out anywhere in the rear of the deck.

it might be a bad ground. try grounding the amp to a different location.
