How to keep my Audio system cool?
This is not a problem I got, it's more outta curiosity but Maybe I'll learn something or someone will find this useful. I'm running a Kenwood 1800 watts class D amp with 2 Kicker L3 Subs and Kicker DX series 400 watts for voice. Now that's 2 amps I'm running in the back of my civic so It must get kinda warm back there. I mainly use the car to go to work n back n even so I still don't crank the system cause i just loose my hearing so maybe that's why they haven't overheated even tho my Bass amp got a fan but still I wanna be on tha safe side. Im not always gonna the luxury of pulling down the seat to get more air flow back there so I was wondering is there's like runout duck or vents for the trunk that can be used?? but hey I'll take what ever Tips available

Vents shouldn't be necessary. Amps these days have heat sinks built in to minimize heat build up. I have two amps in my car and during the summer it gets up to 110 degrees in Fresno and I've never had a single problem.
never had any problems out here in az with the amps in the trunk. even when its 115 outside
put the a/c on
