thnx.....

the rf amps are like ovens. my 800 isnt that hot because i have the bass turned all the way down. the 400 heats up so bad that it cuts out sometimes for a couple of seconds and its only my mid/highs.... if i dont buy the jl's ill probably wanna buy a 600.4 punch just so it doesnt get so hot.

whats the RIPS system? the way it distributes the heat? sorry lost me there. im thinking the jl's would run cooler. but i cant say for sure. i have no experience with them.

i dont necessarily need more power for my cabin but it would be nice. i know the 500 would work better with my subs. just cant decided if its worth it.

i know for a fact my 400.4 isnt really giving good power to my cabin because its 50x4 at 4ohm and my mid/high are all 4 ohms. so if i went with the 300.4 from jl ill get the 75w.

if i have more wattage does that mean it'll run cooler when the volume is the same?
