How many amps are you running? Also, how many subs and what type of box? I would try checking your grounds and make sure they are good. Also, you might have got bad rcas. The signal could be weak in the rca somewhere and could cause it to cut out. Try testing with your old rcas and maybe try a new ground.

Before you do all this, make sure all your connections are good. Maybe power is not tight on the caps or the remote wire is coming off or something like that. Also try the RCAs behind the HU, they could be loose there.

it's a well known fact that capacitors will reduce SPL.
