#12866, "RE: Box connect terminals melted......" In response to In response to 3
If you're in a hot climate area, (Or you have the amp mounted somewhere in your hatch/trunk area) You might also look into a 3rd party amp cooler. I'm in Florida with a 1000W Sony. Because of the serious lack of airflow into the back, I just made my own. You can use any PC fan but 120mm Antecs work great, and don't produce too much noise. I've also heard of routing A/C into the back to keep amps cool. I guess it just depends on how much work you want to put into the project.
