amplifier cutting out when accelerating...

I have an alpine mrp-m350 amp added on to my stock bose system, and lately it will cut out when accelerating. I can sometimes jsut barely touch the gas and it will turn off for like 5-6 seconds. A few months ago, the amp would cut out when going over bumps, while the stock system would keep on playing, no skips or anything. I checked all the connections and wires, and it is all great. I sent the amp to alpine and they told me everything was fine. I got if back and it worked ok for a while, but now it turns off while accelerating even though the bose still keeps on playing. Could it be some sort of voltage regulator that has gone out? How can i fix it and hass anyone had anything similar happen. This amp does not draw alot of power and is a class d, so i am stumped. any help would be greatly appreciated.

loose connection, check all ur wiring and make sure its all connected properly, its probably something from the signal input, or behind ur head unit

CHECK THE AMPS GROUND WIRE!!!!!! i use the nut that holds the rear strut in. if u use anything with paint on it...try sanding the paint off. hope this helps. also, check the remote wire.

this is a theory i need to run past everyone... using more voltage for the higher RPMs/more sparks. do you have a good battery? are all your connections (power and ground) good? did you use good gauge wire and stuff? Does your sub have a cap?... just a theory
