[QUOTE="macq32, post: 4908460, member: 599367"] Hey guys ive been running my 60.5cs kappas and 693.7kappas off of my reference 475a amp for just over a year now. there have been 2 or 3 times where my amp has powered itself into protect mode after continuous use but it always turned on as normal within a few hours time once it had a chance to cool down. About a month ago the amp went down just like the other few times but never came back out of protect. I hadnt gotten to giving it a real look as I have been in the process of moving from Maine to Charleston, SC. Since it went down all I hear is a (very) small "click" in the rear of my car in intervals of 9 or 10 seconds. Im under the impression my amp blew mainly because my speakers should easily be able to handle the 90rms@2ohm this amp is putting out, but i could be wrong just an assumption. Its very possible the idiots who installed the 6 speakers screwed something else up (there have been a few things). Could anyone tell me or point me in the right direction to a few tests I could run or things i could look at. Cosmetically the interior of the amp looks fine. Any help is extremely appreciated!
