[QUOTE="Blackout67, post: 8877378, member: 683415"] Yea that's why I switched away from full bridge. The ones I had always got super duper hot too. Funny you mention them croaking. I had an SFB2000 full range that I sold to my buddy and I told him he needs to be super careful since he doesn't have his HO alt in yet cause of the weather and putting in that Focus was a ***** but anyways, I noticed he was always clipping it frequently and I told him you gotta be careful doing that on these full bridge amps especially cause you don't have stable voltage and like 3 months later he texted me saying the amp wont turn on and smells like burning. As for that impedance rise part I really think it doesn't apply accurately to all music. Trance, EDM, and Dubstep have pretty constant bass throughout the whole song. Even some rap songs such as "Like That" from Future and Kendrick where the bass is almost always present and there are tons of hard transients, my voltage gets hit hard Not to mention amp for your door speakers. Most of the class d 4 channels that put out 80-100 watts at 4 ohms x4 pull 40-60 amps and if your bass is hitting while those amps are pulling that, voltage is going to sag like a MF and going to be harder for a stock alternator to handle.
