Only way to be sure your not getting bumped i would say.

Chad Lee Platinum Member Username: Bestmankind WEST COAST RD AUDIO Post Number: 17958 Registered: Oct-05	Posted on Friday, February 08, 2008 - 17:34 GMT in the meantime, you should contact memphis and tell them you have a bad amp and how much it would be to fix. you should be all prepared ahead of time before you buy incase its not as easy as it seems.

M.S.

They just can't handle voltage drop, which is not good when talking about a 4000w amp, cause you WILL have voltage drop with that.
