[QUOTE="knowledgestick, post: 5838522, member: 603389"] hey guys, what would you say if i told you that my fuse for my amplifier witch is supose to be 250 amp, is only a 150 amp fuse. I popped the hood, after i checked an article on the net, that said they are 250 amp external fuses, i double checked the instruction manual and darted outside with my camera in hand and recorded the hole thing, if this is true and this is infact a big big fault in the install, then they are going to get reemed in court for this.... Isnt this like my amplifier techinically playing with 100 amps less of fuse than it requires ? i am blown away by this... no wonder the neons on the amplifier are so **** dim, and that i have to crank gain and everything else up so high. for **** sakes, This was done way back when future shop origonally replaced their amplifier with mine.... sooooo am i correct in getting the feeling that this could be why it is sooooo quiet unless the gain is cranked witch is also causing extreme thermal stress on the woofers ? urgh this could be the prime suspect of the problem now, somthing easy to fix, but somthing that has been in there for along time like this, and i have always wondered why my gain settings had to be so high on my hifonics, now i know why. This is probably what also contributed to my other woofers giving-way pre-maturely, if this is indeed somthing that causes a problem then this is huge. When i replace the fuse with a 250 amp fuse i should notice a night/day differance shouldnt i ? i mean, this is still kinda rattling my brain so i dont get how bad this would effect my system, but my gut feeling says alot. -andrew *edit* video link will be up tomarow morning it is uploading/hosting tonight those who know my blip.tv channel can watch and see when its up !
