[QUOTE="jake760, post: 6329639, member: 574250"] I went to a car audio shop the other day. I was arguing with the guy about fuses and output. He said that an amp can only put out 100 watts for every 10 amps of current it draws. I told him my Hifonics bxi1206d should be doing a clean 900 watts @ 1 ohm, and it has an 80 amp fuse. He was telling me the fuse would pop as soon as the amp put out over 800 watts. He also told me 1 ohm is not enough resistance and my amp would soon fry running at that impedance. I know that's total BS, but I was curious about the fuse question. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
