so what a sony amp with the required CEA rateing?

 

[Alpineinstaller 10+ year member]

no, just the fact that it is the biggest amp i've seen made by Sony, I'm not flaming the brand or anything.

I may not have a beginner setup, but why all the talk about Xplot and these beginner setups like Xplod and lightning audio? Everyone has to start somewhere. Everyone doesn't have 5 thousand dollars to blow on a system when their 16. Hell If I had 2 Jensen 6x9's in my car off the head unit, I could careless how ya'll felt about it, long as I liked it.

At least they look a bit more mature compared to the garish red crap of the past.

not everyone invests 5g's into their stereo alone.

when i was 16, i spent about $800 for my entire car stereo (wires, sub amp, subs, deck, speakers, etc). theirs just many better options than the lightning audio/sony route.

No such thing exists.

The CEA 2006 ratings standards are simply that. They are a standardized method of rating amplifier output capabilities.

Compliance with said standards is a completely voluntary decision on the part of various manufacturers.

If the Sony amp Alpine posted about is CEA 2006 compliant then if it is fed on a 14.4vdc input then it will output 900w @ a 2 Ohm load.

Agreed.

Ill have to agree, they are certainly better looking than previous years.
