Broke_Audio_Addict Posted April 14, 2015 Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 Quite hot isn't a very specific description. Can you keep your hand on it? That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

Broke_Audio_Addict Posted April 14, 2015 Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 I'd like to see some pics of how and where it's mounted. Also info on the rest of the system may be benefical.

SIDE SHOW Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 did you only just install it for the first time? or has it been installed for a while and only just started getting hot? what are you running from the amp? subs or speaker and what impedance are they?
