Hey everyone! I have a 2006 honda accord and I just got 3 10" alpine type x subs powered by 3 alpine pdx 1.600 amps. I also have a pdx 2.150 for the speakers. I am having a problem with it though and wanted to know if anyone can give me some advice. When I blast my stereo for a long time, sometimes my subs just stop working and come on after about 10 min. Or i can restart the car and they come back on for a little bit until they stop again. When I checked my trunk, i saw that the amps were very very hot and that there was a blinking light on them which meant that it was over heating. I upgraded my battery tyo a yellowtop optima and it was very helpful but they still go out sometimes and i just dont want to have to deal with it. please let me know what i can do to fix this problem?
