Wtf?!?!?!?!

I leave for the store today, decide to jam my sub is pounding great then all of a sudden it stops. It wasnt even 10mins until it stopped i actually just got home from a hour and half road trip and it jammed all the way there and back everything was fine. I have checked all the fuses everything is good im hoping nothing needs to be replaced but so far thats the way its looking. Luckily sony has a 1 yr warrenty. Anyone have any ideas?

Yep. The wires in the box. I never soldered the wires in my old box and they came lose, had a similar problem. Could still be the speaker.

I checked them they are still in good shape. Damn it what else could it be? My power light comes on the amp so the amp is turning on.

Is the sub to amp wired up correctly, correct ohms? If you wire the sub up at a lower ohm setup than what the amp can put out it WILL damage the amp, happened to me but my amp was displaying a 'problem' LED so I knew something was wrong.
