How do you calculate power needs for an amp?

Is it as simple as, a 3000 watt amp needs a 3000 watt battery?

Thanks

Its a relevant question. If I bury this question in a different thread, what good does that do? Alot of people just read the thread topics to see if it relates to them.

This will answer almost every one of your redundant questions.

That is what everyone else does. It is called a follow up question. Not tying to bash you but informing you as several others have.
