[QUOTE="VWBobby, post: 7128464, member: 624844"] They probably use a lot of capacitors to make a huge bank and then run transistors that are rated 4-5 times the RMS rating of the amp. Linear Power and a lot of older amp manufactures did this in the early 90's cheater amps. The RMS is safe, but the amp is capable of so much more in bursts. I know someone who gave away a 70's Sansui system complete with speakers.
