I have a Planet Audio AC5000.1D hooked up to a 15 inch 4 ohm Rockford Fosegate P3. I know the amp isn't really 5000 watts but it should be enough to push a 1000/500 rms p3 15 with no problem. I'm using 4 gauge wire and have the amp on a 2 ohm load, and I have the gain around 25% up n bass boost about 15% up. So does anyone know why the amp gets hot after like 30 mins?? and one more thing how big of a fuse should I be using for this amp? cause right now I have a 100 amp fuse hooked up.</p></blockquote><p></p>
