Is it normal for my amp to get a little hot?

I hav a kenwood amp that puts out 900 watts rms and 1900 watts peak power.Does not get hot but tu?

• I have a kenwood amp that puts out 900 watts rms at 2 ohms and 1900 max rating. On certain songs like put on by young jeezy the amp will cut off and cut back on continously during the song. I have 4 guage power and ground wire also a 2 farad capacitor. Have it wired at 2 ohms to two kicker cvrs that handle 420 watts rms each at 2 ohms. The amp never gets too hot but can get warm . It has a built in fan though. What could fix this problem ?

• Answer:

  it is most likely going into protect because your trying to take to much power from it your subs might be lower than 2 ohms and it could only be stable to 2 ohms try turing the gain down slightly if will be quiter but it wont cut in and out if thats the only song its doing it on then you should probably only have to move it down a little if its doing it on other songs you might have to turn your gain down quite a bit from what ive heard that could possibly damage your speakers so i would get it fixed pronto but im no expert on wether it is damaging your speakers or now
