02z71 Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 this probably sounds like a noob question but can a bad voltage drop damage an amp? ive heard different reports from several people and its hard to know who to believe. if so, how bad can it harm the amp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RooTxBeeR Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 Yes it can, because it not only creates a clipped signal to the Sub, but since the voltage is dropping it stresses out the amp creating unessecary heat.

getlocivic Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 when you voltage drop it makes EVERYTHING in the car suffer... the cars computer fuel pump etc etc.. cars are made to run on 12v source..so i consider anything below 12.5ish to be BAD voltage drop.. i have personally seen a car BURN up from improper electrical.. dropping to 10v and he loved it..till his computer gave way and shorted out and started burning the car from under the seats lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
