[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 1506256, member: 555320"] It depends on your particular vehicle. Some cars charge at 14.4V, some at 13.8V...some even lower than that. That power is also assuming your car will not have any significant voltage drop [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif[/IMG] But yes, in an unregulated design such as that, the amplifier will output more power with a higher voltage input. Which means more power with the car running, and less power when the car's off. But even then..the difference between 400w and 600w is only 1.7db...which is not a big difference to the ear in all reality. [/QUOTE]
