[QUOTE="Sguirrelfeather, post: 8527316, member: 668995"] So, I've got an amp rated at 2600W into 1 Ohm. I'm currently running it at 1 Ohm, with gain set at ~75%. At that 75%, I'm getting 1400W. When I max out the gain, I'm not getting 2600W. This is set at 0db with HU set to 80% max volume, no clipping. So then if more pre-amp voltage isn't the answer, what is? My end goal is to upgrade the speakers so they can handle the amp's max wattage, but if I can't get the amp to put out, what's the point? Oh, and it's not a bad amp. It's an FSD FZ2600, which has dyno'd out well above rated. Oh yeah, yes, I have upgraded electrical. 00 battery cables, 00 cables to the amp, dedicated ground going back to battery, dual batteries, 250amp alternator, big 3, etc etc. [/QUOTE]
