it's that sticky that burns so well...
first thing that came to mind when reading the title.

Where are your gains set, and what type of enclosure is it in? Have you tested your voltage at the amp with a DMM?

well we think we figured out what the problem was the alternator is only pushing 90 amps and the fuse in the fuse holder was cracked going to fix these problems and see what i get

Just kidding, hopefully. If it's a new set up, it could be excess glue burning off.

can you change settings on the low pass filter?

Don't use the bass boost at all. It just distorts and makes things nasty..

all bass boost does is clip the signal, turn it off completely and adjust your eq accordingly.
