[QUOTE="TeenWolf, post: 1011442, member: 561987"] I'm not no sure that it's a resistance problem. I'm hoping that the professionals at CC have enough sense to hook it up properly. From looking at those pics, it looks like you have a ventilation problem - the amp is smothered between the seats. The amp has a heatsink which will draw heat away from the circuit board, but, if the amp is smothered, then the heat will get trapped within the immediate area and make the amp hotter. Try to find a place where the amp won't be covered or get an external fan. Have you talked to CC yet? The amp could be faulty. Take advantage of your warranty. [/QUOTE]
