the volume is turned up in my friends ride... like around 14... he has a Pioneer P920R in there. and a Hifonics Brutus 1500 or somethin..... when he turns up past 14 or so the subs start to pop and the cd player doesnt exactly shut off, but goes out of cd mode or something, and he has to turn it back to cd mode for it to play..... i was thinking it could be because of the amperage being drawn from the amp...anyway what do you guys think? :help:

sounds like it to me.
stick a VOM on it and see if the voltage rails are dropping when you see the trouble.

Does he have the CD Boost all the way up? Most Pioneers let you attenuate the CD volume in relation to the radio. You really don't want it boosted if you like it loud.
