i have 2 sony 12" subs and a 1200w amp. its wired right - i know all about the ohms and stuff. but lately like whenever i turn the car on or hook up my ipod, the subs hit out of nowhere. i unplugged my ipod and they hit like twice. it does this whenever i turn the car off too. whats this all about?

bad answers so far,
the sound you are hearing is caused by the .5mm jack breaking and making contact with the ipod, which sends power to the amp making the speakers "pop" the same can be done by running your finger over the jack. it can damage the subs because it more often than not is dumping an *** load of power into the subs, over extending the voicecoil and speaker surround.
to prevent this, simply turn your headunit off when connecting or disconnecting the ipod

Its a Problem with your amp. Whenever the subs hit, its you amp turning on and shutting off. Probly have a bad ground.
