Has anyone experienced there cd player shorting out when they increase the level of the bass?What can this be from is my amp going out or do i just have a short somewhere..
If you have the bass really cranked up, the laser could be skipping. I was really surprised not to find in our system a feature even the sub-$100 portable CD players have: SHOCK PROTECTION (usually 8 or 10 seconds of music stored in advance). On the other hand, no amount of it can overcome a constant pounding bass hard enough, if that's the case.
Your best bet is to try to duplicate your problem on a dealer's car to find out if you have a problem or just need to lower the bass. It still doesn't sound right to me that it skips.
There were reports of cutouts on that model year; also the Set Button raising the volume to a jump-out-your-window level. The dealers simply replaced the head units on warranty.
Yes I added two 10s and a amp however my amp blew out about 1and a half ago so I have been running only the stock system. I really think the problem is in the head unit or factory amp..
