By wrong wiring i mean too many speakers running off the amp (too low impedance). This can be fine if you dont turn the volume up past a certain level....but after that the amp tries to pull more current than its capable of and trips into protect.
Also going with the low impedance theory, using power cable thats too small for the amp will result in a lower voltage at the amps' terminals, which will also cause the amp to go into protect.
So basically, yes if the wiring isnt right then components can work sometimes, and sometimes not. Going off his explaination it sounds like a wiring / configuration problem more than components. Yeah sure they do come into it as a possibility but im thinking more towards my first thought.
The OP also wrote in his first post that his front speakers (splits), rear speakers (6x9s) and subwoofer were all running off the amplifier.
