Rylan Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 So i have a trouble code light on my amp. Orion HCCA 2500.1. And its saying I'm basically giving it too much voltage. I have a 300 amp fuse which I intend to switch to a 250 to handle this issue. So my question here is.. "can over powering the amp cause distortion? Even at low gain? And after my fuse swap can I expect a cleaner output for a higher gain setting?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c.director Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 I don't know about that specific amp, but changing your fuse size will do nothing to the voltage the amp is getting.

Bigsix Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 Fuse has nothing to do with amp seeing to much voltage.. Fuse pops when amp draws to many amps. *** Damn it!

RickyFriery97 Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 I have no experience with those amps, check your input voltage with a DMM And see what it is. Like said before a smaller fuse will not lower your voltage 2014 Chevy Silverado Crewcab 1994 Chevy Full Size blazer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rylan Posted March 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 Good to go. The reason I thought that was because my manual says any fuse larger then 250 amps will void warranty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rylan Posted March 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 And my voltage stays around 14.9. So normal. And my amp is rated for up to 16v. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
