i get absolutely no power to my amp. either that or it's getting power but not turning on. i don't even get an error message or anything. i checked all the fuses on the amp and in the power line at the battery.

it worked perfectly fine for ~1 month.

the amp is an Alpine M301 D series, and it's powering an Infinity Perfect 12" DVC (~350 watts RMS)

any suggestions on what to look for to fix this would be much appreciated.

The power indicator is on? Is the protect light on?

If your amp isn't getting any power then the protect circuitry will not come one. Check your wiring, something may have come loose.If you can, try to use another amp on that same wiring, if that amp works, your amp is blown and its not the wiring, however if it don't work then your wiring is screwed up.
