[QUOTE="Hookah, post: 8534959, member: 671605"] LOL! Ricing out an amp. That's fairly accurate. My friend is the one who pointed out that "the amp has a spoiler". I think it's hilarious. I might just paint some flames on it since it is kind of a joke anyway. Thanks for pointing out some aspects to amplifiers. As I mentioned, I am fairly new to car audio. I wounder if I'm having an issue with the amp since it was litterally too hot to even very quicly place my finger against it. After my 300 RMS amp died, I am paranoid about losing another one, and it would be good to have all of this worked out before I invest in a good one. I can see how water-cooled amps could be simple, but I just assumed there was more than meets the eye. I am familiar with car radiator systems, and understand the basics of a nuclear plant cooling system (how the contaminated water is kept separate from the 'clean' water, which sort of relates to crucially keeping water separate from the electronics), so perhaps it's simpler than I realize. I honestly just haven't looked into it. Maybe with a more deserving amp, but I am weary of altering a good one. [/QUOTE]
