[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 7498745, member: 576029"] Cold is hard on the gear. And by cold, I mean below zero. I have seen amps have issues, and I have seen condensation damage gear. I keep my vehicles in the garage, so the inside doesn't drop below zero. And when the car sits at work in below zero, I don't turn the system on. When cold, the sub mechanics are less flexible. And I have seen condensation in the voice coil result in a short that destroyed the sub. In extreme cold I don't play as loud as I normally would. Stock systems hold up but they don't generate the same voltages or heat aftermarket can. [/QUOTE]
