      It's not uncommon here in Canada. BTW, -40 C and -40 F are the same. Flippin' cold!

      The speakers physically freeze. Its normal on freezing mornings. The coil freezes, the cone freezes, everything is stiff. When speakers are stiff, they cant vibrate, hence little to no sound. Happened every year up here in ohio with my mtx subs, damn lake effect winter....

      No this isnt the speakers freezing. The head unit its self goes into a system check over and over. As in it powers up checks for system problems and shuts down. It wouldnt do this if it was a speaker that was frozen. I could understand the speakers freezing, but the head unit and the sirius reciever shouldn't be there's no moving parts, well shy of the motor for the cd, and I guess the motorized face plate, but niether of those should cause the syptoms my system has should it?

      The absent of the moving or little moving parts in the frozen speakers could cause a power overload and the H/U is shutting down to prevent damage to it. Is your Siruis and H/U together or separate?
