[QUOTE="derek33, post: 766711, member: 557064"] get a helmet and fasten your seatbelt. as i found out about a month ago, there is much more about car audio then you could ever imagine. to start off with some basic info. Amps can run at different ohms. ohms are like a resistence, so the less ohms, the more watts you get out of your amps. but some amps are only stable down to a certain amount of ohms. you will notice them on amp charts. ie: 1000 watts at 1 ohm, 700 watts at 2 ohm, etc. also, amps depend on your cars electrical system. with a given amp you may get 1000 watts at 12.6 volts, and you may get 1200 watts at 14.4 volts. different cars run at different volts. If your cars electrical system is low, you can fix that with a new alt, new battery, and replacing 3 of your engines wiring with 1/0 gauge wiring. you can learn how to do that here: [URL="http://forum.sounddomain.com/forum/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=5;t=007801"]http://forum.sounddomain.com/forum/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=5;t=007801[/URL] [/QUOTE]
