Turned the gain back down and turned up the gain in the Alpine Imprint processor. Everything sounds great, smooth highs, ht punchy bass you can feel.
I still wonder if this Focal FP4.75 amp will continue to over heat due to not much ventalation and if a D class amp like the Alpine PDX or JL HD600/4 will not only sound even better, more volume and run cooler. I paid $350 for the Focal amp and can swap it out for $120 and get the Alpine PDX 4.150 or the JL HD600/4 for $190 more....good deal or not?
