Why does my car stereo system shut off when listening to music?

Question:
i have a 2000watt power acustic amp and two 12" kicker subwoofers, i also have a jensen in-dash tv, with a 2.0 fared capacitor.

Answers:

Are Kicker subwoofers really that good??

Depends on what is shutting off. If it is just the amp, check the wiring of your subs. You cannot run two 4 ohm svc subs in parallel to a bridged Power Acoustik amp. The only exception to this is if your particular amp is rated 1 ohm stable and can be bridged to 2 ohm mono. They made a few amps that were 1 ohm stable a few years back, but not many.

If your head unit is shutting off too, it may not be the problem. Check your grounds. If your whole car loses power, it may be the main ground wire off the battery.

If your whole audio system is run off a single fuse somewhere (It shouldn't be), than that fuse may be it's way out. Replace the fuse, and install a new amp power wire that runs direct to the battery and has it's own fuse. The amp should not be wired to any pre-existing circuit. Even a small amp (<100 watts) needs its own power lead.

Your amp is overheating and probably has a thermal protection circuit built in.

How should I set my amplifier settings? LPF, HPF, etc.?

if you installed everything yourself, check your grounds. Loose ground connections cause this exact problem a lot of times. And like others have said, you may be pulling too much power and straining your alternator. I'd try a bigger capacitor firs, then go from there with other power supply.
