[QUOTE="Chalmers, post: 8646486, member: 675200"] Had my setup for a year now, car came with it so I have no idea if it's correct. Thought what the hell, let me post pictures of it and ask a second opinion or two. There are two amps, JH600 for the subs and MTX (doesn't matter it's not giving me issues) and there is a Stinger splitter for the power and ground cables. I'm thinking maybe the cable length is too long, it sure looks like I could trim it back a little. Maybe the amp is starved for power. Also an indicator that my amp may be on the brink is it stops working entirely on a really hot day and goes haywire making all kinds of random thumping sounds when I put the key in the ignition, so I have to try a couple of times to make it go away or unplug the sub completely. I have a question as well - do hot amps draw more power? Or do they simply not function beyond a certain temp? [ATTACH=CONFIG]26557534[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]26557535[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
