    you wired the subs incorrectly (most likely) do a search on how to wire a sub (parallel vs. series)

    Definitely true, your subs prob can't handle the resistance (ohms) that you're putting to them. They start overheating and the amp shuts down.

    you got it a little mixed up. the amps can't handle the impedance of the subs, the amp starts to overheat and shuts down.

    You're right, that's what i meant to say. I've been thinking about resistance all day (re-wiring my current system).
