...suddenly. why? i have installed many car stereos before. so this isnt my first rodeo.
say a song has a quiet intro, then gets loud all of a sudden... right when it gets loud it will turn off. so thats how i know its not random.. and thats say at volume 17.
then it will turn off again when it turns back on right as the music starts.. so i turn it down when it restarts.. and it will still turn off at around 15 or so. but it wont restart at like, 12.
and sometimes it wont turn back on at all.

so is this a ground problem? a wiring problem? an internal amp problem? i really like listening to music... and this bothers me..

anything will help
 
If the wiring to the head unit is done correctly, then check each speaker individually before assuming it's something internal with the amp. A bad speaker or shorted wiring to the speaker may cause overheating in the amp of your head unit. Unplug each speaker individually at higher volume levels to see if the unit still shuts down.
