[QUOTE="subzero, post: 7405750, member: 600350"] There is alot to do here. first you need to get the actual final ohm load on the amp. should be around 1 ohm. Get your self a Digital multi meter. Measure the DC voltage from the battery with you car on and off. Car off should be your resting voltage, Car on is your alternator charge voltage and willl climb with increased RPM. Amyhow. If you have good solid 12V or more, then the amp should do at least rated. Most of the time amps that claim more than rated are banking on a higher voltage from your batts and alt. read section 14-15 [URL="http://mobile.jlaudio.com/pdfs/Slash_amps/1000_1_MAN.pdf"]http://mobile.jlaudio.com/pdfs/Slash_amps/1000_1_MAN.pdf[/URL] 1.5 ohms: 1000 watts x 1 chan. each subs is getting 333watts.RMS.@ 12volts. The guide show also how to calculate the voltage. 1000watts @ 1ohm is 31.62278 ACVOLTS, ----> also on that page.
