amp keeps turning off, and sub gets trebble!

Alright, so I got a JL 12W3, originally i had a 120watt rockford amp hooked up to it. Then my cousin gave me an $800 1100 watt max amp, it's an audio art 100HC amp. We hooked it up, and I can't figure out how to get it to cut out the treble. I have treble coming through my sub. I couldn't find how to wire everything and set up the amp to get about 300-400 watts from it. So it's kicking out about 900 watts at the moment on 1 ohm mono. I wired the sub for 1 ohm too.

So i couldn't get it to cut out the treble, we didn't get a manual with it because he got it for investing in to audio art $1000, and got about $4000 in audio equipment for it. I can't get through to them, they have a website audioart.net but the manual doesn't state how to cut out the treble or how to bridge it down or anything.

I keep the gain all the way down so i don't blow the sub until i figure out what it can take. But if i turn my head unit volume up past 14 the amp turns off. How could this be? It's a high current amp. Is it not getting enough power? It's running off of my battery with a Alpine V12 amp running off of the same battery. Can it not pull enough juice? Is that why it's shutting off? Any have any suggestions or ideas? I'd appreciate it, thanks guys.
