Umm...please, tell me the cheapest, reliable non-car audio way to get 3 channels totaling 600-800 watts in my room, I'll tell you if it's money saving or not //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Good luck with that one man that would have to be a big power regulator for the amps. I test my equipment with a computer power supply and if they are to big for that I have three mini gell batteries that work well.

I don't think people read anything related to car audio on here. 05ers and back seem to be the only ones who have a clue what car audio is. They like being spoon fed for some reason. They also seem to use box calculators as a way to make money from the noobs.

How about two pc power supplies from like 20 years ago I took out of old computers that were being thrown away...? Pretty expensive, but still... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

I use three Pyramid Power supplies and three $70 Wal-Mart deep cycles.

I test SAZ-3000Ds on my test bench this way with no problem at all.

For a lesser load you won't need as many supplies and/or the batteries.

These are the ones I use:

I've had one of them for about 7 years.
