I have two 10 inch type R subwoofers being powered by a alpine mrp-m500 amp. I put them in a 2005 saturn ion with the advanced audio system (AAS). I used the high pass converter to rca and my subs cut out when i turn the volume up past three notches. I have turned the gain and eq all the way down on the amp and my head unit and it still cuts out at the sme time. I purchased the subs as a loaded setup so i do not know what the ohm rating is or any ohr specs on the subs. Please help thank you.
I'm not a complete audio expert but it sounds like somethings over heating or you have a blown out put bridge.
hope this helps.

About Power supply wires (MRP-M1000 only)
• 21mm2 is the minimum power and ground cable size
that should be used to connect this amplifier. The
length of these cables should not exceed 1m to assure
safe operation.
• If the length of the power and ground cables exceed
1m, or if you connect more than one amplifier, a distribution
block should be used with 33mm2 or 53mm2
power and ground cables depending on the length
necessary. Ensure that you install a correctly-rated
in-line fuse on the power cable near the battery positive
post.

They sound good till i hit that same point in the volume every time. No matter the settings.
See that is what i was thinking. I actually don't have a capacitor on it. I have a one farad siting i my garage. I may have to put it on there and see f it fixs it.
No the cap did not help anything. I am at a loss. Is it possable the amp is too small for these subs. What are the specs on the type r 10's?
HELP!
