[QUOTE="datduderj15, post: 8283360, member: 661873"] I just bought a 900w, 2 channel amplifier made by pioneer and a 10" sony sub (1200w.) We got it all hooked up and its working good! But ive noticed the amp is getting really hot, to where i cant even touch it for more than a second. I grounded it to the metal piece on the top of the trunk. I scraped the paint off, and have a big washer on it, and its pretty sturdy. We couldnt connect the remote wire to the radio so we had to rig up speaker wire that connects to the fuse box. When it gets too hot, does it shut itself down? or is it something wrong with my wiring? [/QUOTE]
