Hi nick, there can be many causes for this fault.
1. your speakers or speaker cables are faulty, then this problem will come up.
2. your installation is done incorrectly, or with the wrong gauge of power cables can cause this problem.
3. your vehicle battery could be weak.
4. you could have an internal problem with the amp only, which needs repairs.
cheers.

check your ground cable and make sure it is making a good connection because sometimes this does it

internal heat capacitor or even a bad connection indside amp is bad giving you a hi output load wich the amp has an auto matic sensor to send it into this offset you speak of so it does not burn up

if your amp is overheating your sub is needing to much power that the amp doesnt have.
if its cutting out and the red light comes on you need to check the wiring. nothing not even the tinyest speaker wires can be touching.
proper wiring would be your best bet.
but i would upgrade amps.
cheap bang isnt reliable.

What kind of subs are you running? Meaning what brand, what are the ohm, spl and wattage? I'll look up your amp while you get that info to me. Looking forward to helping you:) Thanks!
