Silver Member Username: GangstafertJacksonville, Florida USA Post Number: 314 Registered: May-06 | I am running An autotek MM1400. With 2 arsenals wired at one ohm and i have the gain set under halfway if i go anymore my amp will go into protect at full volume. I dont think my amps gain matches my HU preout voltage where it is now but that is the only place it will work. Can anyone help me?? |

Silver Member Username: GangstafertJacksonville, Florida USA Post Number: 315 Registered: May-06 | The amp does get hot, but if the charging sytstem couldnt handle it then why would the amp cut off? |

Another question is what's your HU preout voltage |
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Google is your Friend, FL Post Number: 6099 Registered: Aug-05 | you must be severely clippin the amp for it to go into protect mode. the gain doesn't determine how much power the amp puts out. it is used to match the input Voltage from the HU. with too sensitive of a gain setting and a higher votage going into it, the amp will clip. also if the amp doesnt "have the current to make the current" then it will send a clipped signal with what current it has to counter for the weak power input. |

Silver Member Username: GangstafertJacksonville, Florida USA Post Number: 316 Registered: May-06 | Its a dual 7500 and its 3volts and on my amp i dont have it set no where near where 3 is but thats the only way it wont go into protect. I have already talked to andrew a while back and i just got my arsenal back from chad because my previous one( I am running two but one messed up) Got destroyed, How i dont know, but chad at AA said he had never seen anything like it before im guessing it was a faulty driver but i dont know. I have a yellow top up front but no big3 or alternator. My subs are working where everything is set now i just dont understand why it dosnt work where it should be?? |

New member Username: ElmagicoPost Number: 6 Registered: Sep-06 | whats wrong with youre amp is PWM MOSFET Power Supply that amp should not be getting hot i reccomend you ad some type of cooling device .or check to see if youre fans are clogged or not working |
Silver Member Username: GangstafertJacksonville, Florida USA Post Number: 318 Registered: May-06 | The amp dosnt have fans. And some amps its ok to get a little hot but mine has gotten pretty d@mn hot before. |
Bronze Member Username: ElmagicoPost Number: 35 Registered: Sep-06 | are you sure it has no fans man that sucks ok well try this open youre amp and check the resistors that go straight to the chassis you may have a couple burned.open and send me a pic i cant find this amp no were online vargasfam824@comcast.net |
