125.2 heat problem


Hostility

Recommended Posts

ok to start off i have a 99 s10 ext cab, with a false floor in the back, under it is a saz 2K, and a 125.2. i started with only about 1" of air space above the amps before the floor, then i found out the 125.2 was getting soo hot i could not even touch it, but would never go into thermal (protect). also that was getting that hot within a 10-15min drive. i also found that it only got hot at high volumes. so today i raised the floor up 3/4" i have about 2" of air space now above the 125.2, i also added right beside the amp blowing over it, a 120mm and a 80mm fan, on the other end of the floor i have a single 80mm blowing over my 2K, as i found it really didnt get that hot. (its about 30-40 degrees with humidity over here). now on the drive home i found that within about 15 min the amp was getting pretty hot still. i have my amps on a relay, and i have the fans hooked up to the remote wire for the 125.2. im going camping this weekend coming up and my truck will be blasting music all weekend, so i want to get this cooling issue fixed before i leave. thanks!!
