to test if they work or test power output? basically the put it on bench and power it up with a power supply out of the car lol if you wanna get technical if you do a search at carsound.com you will see how you can test an amps power output on a reactive load. alot of people like testing it with resistors but alot of times that misleading in real performance.

power output...i set my gains the other day with an oscope, i measured 43.2V...and that would come out to 1866.24watts( using V^2/R) and i seriously doubt my amp is that overrated. its a soundstream ega1400d
