[QUOTE="blazian87, post: 8709528, member: 574798"] Hey welcome to the forum! I'm kind of surprised since it's a class D but in the same time it doesn't surprise me because you have all your speakers running off of one amp. All the channels are sharing the same rail voltage and your sub channel is very demanding especially. That's why I'm not a fan of 5 channels. On top of that, JL uses R.I.P.S. technology which works extra hard to keep providing that same power over and over no matter how much the impedance fluctuates, which can be a good thing for music actually. It can create a lot of heat tho so the only thing I can say is probably just lower your gains all around man. I know it's not what you wanna hear but I wouldn't want to have my amp overheat either even if everything plays correctly. Too much heat can kill an amp. [/QUOTE]
