amp turns off when i play cds

hey, i have a sony cdx-c8¡0x deck, 12' kicker comp and a kicker amp, and it works well when i listen to the radio, but right when i stick a cd in, the amp automatically shuts off. is there a reason for this? thanks

You most likely have the amp connected to the wrong lead on the radio. It is connected to the power antenna and Not the remote turn on.

then hook it up to the accessory wire (red wire) it will still turn off when HU is turned off.
