Posted on Friday, November 18, 2005 - 23:17 GMT hey,
i have a jeep and i was wondering if my amp (which has a cooling fan) would get better air circulation that a small sedan where the amp would be in the trunk because in the SUV you have more space for air to flow around...
is their anything you can do to make air circulate batter so that your amp doesnt overheat? what about opening my back windows, so the air goes straight to the back, would that help?
thanks alot |

Posted on Friday, November 18, 2005 - 23:25 GMT 9 times out of 10 an amp wont overheat unless you are clipping the h3ll out of it or you have it run below its recommended resistance.
what is the amp in question here?
what subs?
what resistance load is the amp seeing? |

Posted on Saturday, November 19, 2005 - 01:23 GMT Just make sure that the amp isnt really close to anything (seats, box, floor,) on more than one or two sides.
Its most likely the amp thats messing up not where you place it, however. |

Posted on Saturday, November 19, 2005 - 07:54 GMT amps still sound better/produce better power while running cooler. |
