[QUOTE="n2audio, post: 297794, member: 540940"] Hmm, well, the obvious power problems you're describing leads me to think there's a problem in the wiring. I'm fairly sure the SC won't directly influence current consumption - it's just driven by the crankshaft. If I were you I'd trace the current path from battery(+) to amp to ground and hope there's something going on. Is it possible your battery is getting old? Does your car start ok when you turn the key? Slow to turn over? [/QUOTE]
