[QUOTE="DarkFox, post: 3624552, member: 567531"] Please elaborate. other then rated power, not as loud as X amp, what? Alot of engineering went into these amps to keep them cool under load, overheating a amp 90% of the time indicates that the amp is being run at a lower impedance then stated stable load by the manufacturer, or is installed in such a manner as to not permit resonable air flow over its heat syncs. Blowing a in-line fuse (unless the amp or power wire is shorting out) is a sign that the installer did not properly fuse the system to begin with. The fuse on the side of the amp is to protect the amp, the fuse in-line is to prevent the car from burning down or battery from exploding should the power cable short. [/QUOTE]
