do car speakers need to be in an airtight box?

You have to take it to a stereo store an have a fan installed inside the casing of the amp itself to keep from damaging the board. You can probally get by with installing an exterior fan on the amp so that it is coolin it off. You need to find out why you are over heating are you overdriving or what!

How do I connect my aftermarket radio in my 93 villager with premium sound package?


Make sure your speakers match the impedance of the output. keep in mind that if you wire speakers in parallel that you will reduce the total impedance for that circuit. Example (2) 4 ohm speakers wired in parallel will give you a total of 2 ohms for that circuit and if you hook up that circuit to an amp that is set for 4 ohms you will be drawing twice as much current and generating twice as much heat.

Also, make sure that the amp is in an area that continuously receives fresh air. Amps installed in a trunk or under a seat will not be able to dissipate the heat as fast and cause a thermal run away of your amp.

10-meter radio and CB radio?



Well, its been a while since I have installed one so going on memory here. Is it a stereo sub or is it mono. If it's mono there should be a switch on the amp that needs to be set to sub. Make sure that is correct and also check the impedance of the amp and sub. They should match. If not some amps have a switch for this, or they may do it automatically(look in owners guide).

After reading your edit. I think you have blown your sub. Possibly a short in it or an enternal crossover if it has one. So, you may have to replace your sub.
