[QUOTE="CarlB, post: 593244, member: 556128"] So I got my Arc Audio 4050XXK in yesterday. A quick look at the birth sheet, which is rated a 2ohms, gives 33% more power than its rated for. My question is, how much power can I expect at 4 ohms? Since the power isn't doubled from 4-2 ohms, Im not sure if its going to be 33% more as well, or if it will be more/less than that percent gain. Specs: 55x4@4ohms 90x4@2ohms 180x2@4ohm bridge From birthsheet: Channel/Power 1/120 2/119 3/121 4/119 @2ohms. Oh, and btw, my 1500XXK is rated almost right on its speced 500wx2 (498/499 actually), so not as overrated as I would have expected. [/QUOTE]
