sactownstang Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 20 years installing stereos and I had a first saturday. While practicing bass race(showin my homey what it's about) about 18 seconds into it I hear one speaker go off so i push it more to get to 139.9 with 8 seconds left I see smoke. Hell I end at 139.7 open my hatch and the amp is on fire! It was burning over 15 seconds before we got it out. I don't know what coulda happened, only thing I could think was voltage got to low?? Shouldn't it just shut off? Anyone else ever had a fire? I seen smoke before but never flames.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
