Engineers have recognized the importance of radiant surface area, but the constraints of the heat from the components to the heatsink. The heatsink, in turn, must dissipate this the automotive environment have forced heatsink designs to remain compact. In order to heat or become too hot for the internal components to operate properly. The heat can be improve radiating efficiency, designers have simply added more fins. With limited space, transferred from the heatsink by three different processes

The Art Series' uniquely shaped heatsink is designed for high-efficiency cooling but neath to be sure you aren't drilling into wires, brake or fuel lines, etc. Terminate the wire improper mounting may compromise its ability to cool. When mounting the amplifier in a with a ring connector and attach it to the bare metal using a # 8 sheet metal screw and washer (not supplied). We suggest crimping and soldering this connection. Insulate the confined space (i.e. under), care must be taken to ensure t
