[QUOTE="thevic24, post: 7246736, member: 575973"] I am just trying to figure out why the amp is heating up like you say. If the xo is at 33hz, that is REALLY low. About the lowest setting that amp has.( you may want to turn it up some, about 80 ish) And you say 3 ohms, is your polk 3 ohms?( if you have a dmm, can you measure it?) That amp is a 2 ch and is only 4 ohm stable bridge if that is how you have it. This could be one of the reasons its heating up like that. Good luck with everything and sorry for the "thread jack", was just trying to help with the heat issue. [/QUOTE]
