    Just re read this, the amp is going into protection, basically your running it to hard, headunits and amps are realistically at full power on about 3/4 volume, any more and it starts to distort causing the cut out.

    amp needs up grading to a more powerfull model it would appear. each amp suld be working around 3//4 at max power at max volume.

    Ie 300watt RMW sub would need 350watt RMS amp, 4x50watt head unit needs speakers that are max of 45watt etc......this will prevent the cut outs

    Default sony headunit issue

    are you sure its the aerial your look at and not the feed to the amplified antenna??my e46 aerial has an amplifier on it so it had to be connected to a switchable ve for it to work properly - this was direct off the bmw headunit.might be the same thing but just a thought
