Hey Bing,
I noticed by the way you have your fans set up (assuming you wired the fans up normally and not reversed), you have 2 fans in push and 4 fans in pull. Wouldn't it be more efficient to do 3 push and 3 pull (not that you think heat would be a big issue anyways since u have never had overheating problems with DLS amps?

you pretty much hit it on the head, the fans arent really for the amp lol...they are for the vinyl decal ont he bottom of the plexi, and four fans blowing in covers the widths of the vinyl...
but again, there is no exact science inthis...we arent f1 engineers afterall testing aero in a windtunnel

as lojng as the amp and the sticker doenst overheat, its all good

where do you get your fans anyways, I need a few. Is it local? What do you do, just tap them into an amp's 12V+?

Thanks for the offer. Maybe we can work something out, if not no worries. I can get a few at a time on ebay also. So they all have a Black/ground wire, a 12v+/wire, and a third wire/relay that is hooked up to the amp's remote? Sounds easy enough. If I get 12V fans with wire harnesses on them, I can simply snip the harness off and use the 3 wires correct? Thanks for the help guys.
