Kicker tests at 14.4 So what that sheet says...is lieing because your car will never read out at 14.4 volts.....sorry!

What it's regular rating is though you will probably get.

i put zero faith in any manufacturer's birthsheets

yeah god forbid that one would actually make that right? lol my ohio generator alt had an external regulator and could easily adjust up to 17 volts.

Okay guys arn't you hillarous, your standard start car alternator will never put out 14 volts. They are all rated at 12...You buy and aftermarket Alternator then there ya go...but 3/4's of the people who are even in car audio don't buy one Happy?

Yeah, I've never seen or heard of any alternator that can produce 14.4 volts ... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

Then you're not looking very hard. Most factory charging systems these days are charging at 14.4.

the birthsheets are actual as they are read when the amp is burnt in at the manufacture, so what number it reads, at that voltage, will do
