added fan to amp it went into protect mode y ?

uh no all you assholes told me to do was use 0g wire like that some magical shit or somthing like please tell me a secret way of wireing

For real, take a piece of the 2 gauge you have and connect the positive and negative of the battery you have in the back. You'll get better voltage this way and as a result, the amp won't get as hot.

tell me what to do and ill do it

It's been said a dozen times.

1. Buy a high output alternator (200+ amps)

2. Buy AT LEAST ONE decent battery (preferablly two, example: 1 Kinetik HC1400 under the hood & 1 Kinetik HC2400 in the rear)

3. Buy some decent 1/0 awg wiring (Knu Konceptz, Shok, RF, Kicker, Street Wries, etc)

You can have the best equipment in the world, but it won't perform worth a damn if it isn't powered & installed sufficiently.

because that amp is only 1200W, only has 120A of fusing.

oh, i see.

this man knows what he is talking about.

my box holds 6 but each sub is sealed in its own 12 cubic foot box but im porting each box with 2d 4L ports you think it would be louder then
i would like to know how to wire it so the amp wont over heat can this happen and still be running at .67ohms i wire the way i do because i just copy what the assholes at best buy did

there is nothing wrong with intrepids u *******

Dude, your entire system is a clusterfuck. Pay someone on here to design a decent enclosure for you...and buy the shit that a dozen of us have told you to buy. Car audio is not cheap, and half-assing shit is unacceptable.

I'll get you fixed, smartass!

i want to make a fat joke about you sitting on your high horse and breaking it

i dont know what that means but if i did i think i would feel bad

you are fucking stupid.

 

[markak134]

you think if i got a new alternator it would be all better come on man i dont want to buy 0g wire i just got this 2g at advanced if i take it out it will be a big waste of money the reason y i used 2g is because noone ****ing sells 0g and i dont want to ****ing wait to get it shipped

mmmm baby come here lemme spank that fat ***

my aq 1200d has the same fusing.

yes, i do. it's great advice really, just wish the op would help me help him //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

I just now took a close look at the dude's amp. It's an RD2200.TD. I thought they were rated @ 2,000+ watts rms at 1 ohm. Guess I'm wrong...

 

[Bumpin' Goalie 10+ year member]

Then keep the 2g and take a chance. Depends on how much current is really going through it. Can always add another run of it. I'm thinking that 2g will suffice.

A h/o alternator will help keep voltage up if you have an adequate buffer reserve (AGM battery(ies))

However, may not even need it. May just need to tidy everything up and get a nice sealed AGM in there.

 

[markak134]

and my battery is good if i t can power a whole jetski then its good enough for my amps

you're arrogant and elitist and won't listen to what people have to say, hmmm.... sort of like steve meade
