amps getting hot help

[uhoh_45]

are you sure you wired the subs up right??

i know with my buddys old xplode i wired it down to .35 and it didnt go into protect or anything instead it just burnt my finger when i went to touch it

to start it's summer, so what ever ambient temp it is in yer car, the heatsink of the amp is already. next, the mids/highs amp is class A/B which runs warm to hot due to it's nature in circuit design.

unless your amp/amps are shutting down from thermal protect, i wouldn't worry too much

bad ground/clipping/low ohm load

go to frame or do front to back ground

in my saturn my front to back ground had less resistance than a strut tower ground

I was told that chassis ground was better them frame is not true. if I go front to back I still need another ground to the chassis of frame dont I?

dont have to. thats what the thermal circuit protects it from. so if it isnt, you're just wasting your time

Chassis/frame would be the same. You're essentially grounding to the body, run them on down to the frame.
