Hey all,
Got a 12" ALpine X Type
Feeding it 1800wrms (2x Responce 1000w mono linked @ 2ohm) it gets a bit hot the sub, i have a infra red temp guage after crankin it for just under a hr i put the meter on the heatsink for the voice coils n it read at 81.3deg.
How much heat can this gurl take b4 she blows or limits it life..
For sum reason when the sub get hot the slave amp goes into protect n has to be reset to work again, weird, crap amps tho for hte price.
Got a couple fans 80mm with sensors that i could chuck on there to cool it down.
But just wanted to know if it sweet to sit at around that temp, it says coils will handle 220deg but thats pretty hot.
Whats ur thoughts peeps
Cheers
