Why does my Clarion Amplifier shut off at high volumes?
If your Clarion Amplifier shuts off at high volumes, it might not be getting enough power. Ensure that the voltage at the amplifier does not drop below 10V during operation. Clarion recommends at least 8 AWG power wire for both +12V and GND connections.
What to do if audio stops playing from my Clarion XC1120?
If the audio stops playing, the thermal protection circuit may have shut down the amp to protect the circuitry. Make sure there is adequate ventilation around the amplifier. Also, inspect the fuse at the battery or amplifier and replace it if blown. The amplifier may also be loaded below 2 Ohms per channel (4 Ohms bridged mono on the XC1420); in this case, check the wiring and reconfigure as needed.
How to fix distorted audio from my Clarion Amplifier?
