[quote=jujumantb][quote="Short Hand":d67bd][quote=jujumantb][quote="Short Hand":d67bd]its a A/B thats why ffs. is yours a D ? + my trunk itself heats from any where to 50 Celcius (not ferenheit), it even explains in the manual here that its not good to operate it at that level. rolleyes:[/quote]
Mine is A/B aswell. If yours is A/B, are you sure its a monoblock and not a 2-channel that you bridged to 1-channel?[/quote]

did i say it was a mono block ? / blah sorry. its a 2 channel/1 amo. my mistake. its currently running bridged blah" at 1. Its dedicated for the subs. If i said mono block back somewhere in the thread (my mistake). amp - XM 2200 GTX.[/quote:d67bd]
Well I dont have experience with that amp so I cant really comment on it. Are you 100% sure you are wired to 4 ohm? That can make them overheat quickly. I'm sure you have it right though. Other than that, try building a
little rack with fans to get the air over the heat sinks.

^ thats my rack. Works well. The fans are pulling air not pushing BTW, more efficient that way in my experience.[/quote:d67bd]


i currently am, (building one) it never over heats as long as the AC is on. etc. Its probably the best high wattage budget amp I have ever gotten to use. This is a testament on Sony's behalf. price and all etc. Iv'e got the rack built, just the fans i ordred from Custom Fx don't come in until Saturday, blah, it was a bitch to build since i had to mount if on the back seat (cavaliers trunk bracket = to small to hold this thing, its a tad to large)
