what exactly do you want to know? I'd just clamp music with the bass soft clipped to see what you're actually getting

unless you're doing comps or spl clamping sine waves isnt really helpful

Okay sounds good to me. I clamped a mtx81000 w 30hz scoped to soft clipping and wasn't impressed

it's very underwhelming, even with a taramps hd3000 i dont get huge numbers but you can't really expect it from high rise and music not burped

Yeah I clamped 850 on a very soft clip rising to 2.5ohms.

When wired to rated, rise kills your power.

Can't wire below rated with Brazilians, so they will never make their rated power //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

You can but you'd better map your impedance across your frequency range

.7 is the lowest I'm going on my 20k. The Z's should have plenty of rise
