175.4 Thermal Protect Troubleshooting


Recommended Posts

It is not uncommon for amps especially one of this size to run hot 120+ in some cases. Sometimes the protection section that monitors heat of the board car have a false reading and cause the amp to protect. OR it may have an issue. I had a batch of DAT 1k's that need a small fan added to the board to blow across the control board. In either case I would have it looked at.

not many cars can get me to pluggin my ears but this one.......damn. I mean the first minute is ok but that thing just really starts digging deeper and deeper in your earhole till you cant stand it no more. Seems like it does it with relative ease....16 12's on 8 amps.........gotta love it. :)

I'll find out in the morning if its a warranty thing or not. If it is, i'm sending it to DC. If not, i'll be sending it to Ray to try and figure it out(because he's closer).

Im at DC now, Im trying to find your invoice so I can start your RA form. I cant find it? Did you buy it new from us or did you purchase a used amp from someone?

Yup, First one Ive seen thermal like this, I have seen protect issues from high voltage though. Im still searching for his invoice. As long as it wasent bought as a used amp from someone it and is less than a year old falls under the warranty program and we will get it shipped to db-r after we play with it here and can confirm the same results. :drinks:
