Car radio overheating.
I have a kenwood radio an if keeps over heating I have a ford escort zx2 I moved some stuff in the dash around an there's alittle better air flow, I only have 3 speakers hooked up 2 stock and a 12" 500 watt sub no amp yet, it got so hot yesterday it actually blew a fuse, I'm new to all this and my dad helped me hook it up an all the wires are fine, I just twisted them together and taped them, should I use wire connectors instead?
. Will look into getting an amp.
