I am having a problem with what i think is my speakers cutting out. I have a 1997 Nautique super sport and the sound system is Clarion (well atleast the head unit). Whenever I try and turn the volume up above about 28-29 the whole thing will turn off and then turn back on until I turn the volume down. I was looking at the options and when i TURN THE bASS TO -7 AND THE treb to -7 they can go to about 30. Also, when i CHANNEL THE SOUND TO ONE SPEAKER OR THE OTHER IT CAN ALSO GO TO ABOUT 30 BUT THE SECOND i TURN THE BASS OR TREBLE UP, OR HAVE ALL 4 SPEAKERS PLAYING, IT ONLY LETS ME GO TO 28. Please help.

All speakers playing off of the head unit or amps? <BR> <BR>Clarion's IIRC only go up to about 35, so 28-29 should be the limit depending on what's powering the speakers. <BR> <BR>Could be a dead short somewhere <BR>Could be a blown speaker showing a dead short <BR>Could be a low battery

Ha nice plug Tim <BR> <BR>"Coming At YOU!"

power issue. run a wire directly to battery just like an amp. problem solved.

run a new ground too. or run a new ground to the daisy chain under the dash.

Whoops, sorry about the caps I just realized that. I think it's all running off, it says its 50 Watts x4 on the head unit. Where do I connect the wire to and from and everything. (I'm not so good at this stuff) <BR> <BR>Thanks though!

I had the same problem with one of my older boats... Pretty sure its the max that deck can put out..If I were you id get a 4 channel amp to juice those speakers with. 60 to 80 bucks for a nice fosgate or kicker and your set! check craigslist.

We wanted to try and get a new system so I think we might just replace everything.

that was a common problem with that year nautique (pretty much all of them with that style dash). <BR> <BR>the ground wire is not large enough to feed all devices in dash, change that first by running a second 8 or 10 guage and parallel them in the dash pod . if that is not enough so the same with the power.(make sure to fuse them at the batt)

What? I am complete noob at this.
