Unregistered guest | So I have an amp that overheats way too much and I want to put a cooling fan in it...I know I could just probably buy a 12 volt cooling fan for it but I don't want to try and find one and spend any money. I have some knowledge when it comes to taking things apart and putting things together and I was wondering if I can use a cooling fan from a computer or such device and somehow wire and use it in my amp, if so how would I do this?? You can email me at wantitgetit1@cox.net |

Can do this from a dist block near your amps, or, if you prefer to have it turn on with your audio... Take your remote lead, get a bosch relay, find a diagram to wire it up properly, then use the output from the relay, as the new remote turn on for your amps, and your new fan. (Bosch relays are like $1 and just about everywhere has them.) |
