Hey guys, first time poster here. I've searched the forum and did some Google searches for my question but I can only find results for speakers cutting out when the volume is too high. My problem is speakers cutting when the volume goes too low.

I'm using a pair of Polk components speakers rated at 100rms each on a Pioneer GM-5500t 2 channel amp rated for 125x2@4.

The amp has a gain knob I'm not too familiar with; it doesn't just say high/low. It's got a "normal" in the middle, "6.5v" to the counterclockwise side and "0.2v" to the clockwise direction.

If I set the amp to "normal gain" and set the head unit volume to my desired listening level, I get all 4 front speakers playing with very little buzzing/distortion when tested against a tone generator.

However... when I turn the volume down on the head unit, at least one speaker will cut out and not play again until the power goes up.

Any advice?
