2018 CX-9 Speakers cut in and out

[IrwinMazda]

Does anyone know what could be causing the speakers to intermittently go in and out. Sound is still great when on but then there is a snap noise and all the speakers go out. A few minutes (varies) later it comes back on and sounds fine for a short time and then the snap. Is the amp overheating? Or is the amp dying? It is the Bose system. I checked the wiring at the amp and all seemed to be fine.

The amp is probably dying.

snap noise will point back to amplifier.

thank you, I figured but wanted to see what others thought. Do you have a parts store you trust? I guess I need OEM Bose Amp

Thank you for your reply, I figured that was the issue. Do you have a parts store for OEM Bose Amp that you trust and is reasonably priced?

Lkqonline.com is a well known junkyard that will ship to you.
Car-part.com is a junkyard hotline that will help you find a car close
I usually use mazdaswag to purchase new or Google the part number online to see who has the cheapest price

Before you buy a new amp, see if Bose will replace it. The amp dying was a pretty common problem for a while, and a lot of people got them replaced for free.

Great advice, will look into, thank you.

The snaps may go away on their own. I gave mine some time and it stopped. However, my sound wasn’t cutting in and out, only loud snaps.
