amp and subs

[BMWkid91]

So to get alil more kick to my music I instaled two 10" subs. But when they were put in and wired corectly to the amp, its stays in power protection mode. At random times while driving ill hear it kick in and hit to the music but when i shut the car off and start it up it stops. I can fiddle with the fue on the amp and get it to work but then its stops after shuting the car off.

-two 10" (Bridged)
-200W JVC
-10 G wire
-grounded to the rear srtut bracet
- and a drirect wire with fuse link to the battery in the trunk
-Pioneer deck

ANY ideas what could cause this

bad memory wire connection, bad speaker wire connection, quintuple check all your wiring, settings on the amp, etc. also check the main fuse, my old car had a faulty amp power wire, the amp would randomly cut out. try running a straight wire from battery to amp. if that works, then replace the amp power wire with a new one with fuse etc.

Well, 99% of the time, when someone says "it was done right, I bridged them" they are talking out their ass and wired 2 4 ohm woofers in parallel, then attempted to bridge it...causing their amp to do exactly what you are describing. Generally piss poor wiring is the other 1%, BTW. Guys trying to use 10ga wire on a 1200 watt monoblock is something I see all the time too.

So, if you want some more useful info, how about you post EXACT model numbers and maybe a picture of your wiring?
