Yeah buddy! This thing is still pounding.

Only issue with this amp is it generates some serious heat, but I got creative to overcome that. I bought a little brushless 12v blower type fan to draw some air through it and took a hole saw to the metal plate on the bottom of the amp and used some screws to attach it. Made mounting the amp a little cumbersome but I was easily able to overcome that as well by cutting out a hole in the mdf mounting plate to accommodate the fan attached to the back of the amp. Got 12v +/- power from the ground and remote lugs on the amp, so the fan only ran when the amp was on.

In the process of pulling the amp out and getting everything ready for install the little positive wire on the fan got yanked out and I decided to go with a new, slightly bigger fan to draw even more air though it. After a couple hours on the road this past Sunday to go see a friend I felt it and amp was cool to the touch.
