[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8308379, member: 650438"] hell 80 dollars brand new for a 130 rms x 4 channel amp thats a bargain right there! dude.. Its pyle.. You see how many of these get bench tested and amp dyno'd? they are lucky to even do 1/8 of their rated rms power cleanly. He cannot use the DMM method if he does not know how much power the amp can specifically put out cleanly. He will easily drive it into levels of clipping and distortion. DMM method is no where near a sure fire method especially with questionable equipment with unreliable performance. he'll shoot for a modest rms number and try to get the proper voltage and all of the sudden find himself in the 95% gain setting with bass boost on to reach that number and he'll start banging away.
