[QUOTE="gimling, post: 8385719, member: 665148"] What do you mean stop repeating it?? you do not use max draw playing music your not playing constant tone, 65 amp draw is way higher than what you would draw playing loud music. its a ballpark figure to be more accurate. take the amplifiers RMS wattage Total multiply it by the efficiency rating on the amp then add that to the RMS wattage, divide it by the true output Voltage of your alternator to get MAX current draw if the Amp was plaiying constant tone, music is on average 1/3 of that so you can take that MAX and divide it by 3 and you have your average current draw on your alternator. I am trying to give an accurate description on how it affects his electrical system not just shooting out a sure yah that should be OK. If you have information that states otherwise i would love to hear it but tellin me not to repeat something when you have no basis is nonsense. [/QUOTE]
