Default Odd problem with my DNX7100

So everything has been working great. Untill a few days ago when it sounds like all the sound is coming out of the front left speaker. If you turn the volume up, it continues to get louder out of that speaker and then all of a sudden it equals out and sounds like normal. Randomly it will switch everything to that one speaker and get really loud without the volume turning up.

Config:
Headunit: Kenwood DNX7100
Amp: JL Audio 500/5
Door speakers: Focal Polygalss Components
Rear Speakers: Focal Polyglass Coaxials

Anyone have any ideas?

The only thing i can think of is i used pretty crappy RCA's. Everything else is wired right. I just dont know why it was working fine and now its not.

Try switching the RCA's around at the amp (channels 1 - 4),and when the problem occurs again, if the sound still only comes from the front left, the amp is the problem. If the sound moves to the channel with the left front RCA plugged in to it, the problem is with the head unit or possibly the RCA's.

I'll check that today.

This isn't sounding good
