Heya fellas. Been a while. Hope y'all been good.
Anyway, onto my problem. I am having some issues with the amp that is powering my sub. On hot days, like today at 39.6° lol, my amp goes into protection mode. It's a MOSFET 2500w mono block powering 2 x 1000watt subs. It's located in my boot which I figure is contributing to my problems as the car is parked outside.
My question is, what have you all done to avoid/prevent this from happening? One idea I had was to make a raised enclosure and put a couple 12v fans under it to circulate the air, but will it work if the air is already hot?
The other idea is that I mount it under my passenger front seat? Has anyone done this? How hard would it be to mount it to prevent it sliding around?
If you have any other ideas, I'd greatly appreciate hearing them. Thanks in advance
