i was driving the other day and my subwoofer would pop in and out. so i turned the music off and you could hear a pop every so often so im guessing thats the power to the subwoofer thats going off and on...

Go over all of your wiring. Make sure you don't have a short somewhere. When your subwooferis on does it sound good? Might be blown. I say just check your wiring.

unfortunately theres not just one thing that we could tell you is the problem. It could be a variety of things such as a bad ground connection on the amp, a bad speaker wire connection betweenthe sub and amp, a bad power wire connection at the amp or the battery, or even a bad set of RCAs.

What I would do first is go over evey connection of the whole system and check that everything is securly and properly connected. If that still doesn't try running a new temprorary set of RCA cables and see if that helps.

ya its a huge could be anything deal....
i had a inline fuse before that had a bad joint that would oddly enough loose conection turning my amplifier off from power not geting to the amp. could also be a loose speaker conection on the amp, on the sub box, on the inside of the box/ on the sub itself.
could also be a small wire sliver from the wire that shifts over and touches another terminal shorting the amplifier.

Its almost always the ground, so make sure its grounded right, you might even have to ground the headunit
