How cold is cold? It's very common for the sub's surround to get stiff when it gets very cold. If it's close to freezing, it takes several minutes before my bass starts to wake up. I wouldn't say it sounds like trash, but I can hear a difference in volume level.

all depends on weather. when its really cold give the system time to warm up and then play it. its not your systems fault at all.

i know that, i'd say it's the surrounds if anything. i think the amp would love being cold (of course i haev no idea how it'd react to sub-freezing temperatures), i know mine pounsd the hardest in the morning (anywhere from 40~55 degrees)
