i mean most of those amps that offer like lights that light up or dig read out of voltage and temp on the amp they some times burn out and stop workin. it happend to me in the past and my brothers friend. so i wanted to know if it would hold up? i did do some research and i found out it does draw some current . and its hard to really push your subs. the amp will get hot. so i guess ill pass if im paying for 1800 rms and i can only really turn the amp settings only to less then half way thats kinda a waste thanks. and i am ready i been ready that why im asking questions and i got a book with all the stuff i need and how to wire it up . if im not ready now then i will never b. i could go to a shop and let them do it and learn nothing . thanks guys the 1600 d might be the amp for me .
