which amp does more watts? I Just Got both these amps and im deciding which one to keep. I Have 6 American Bass 10's. They're Dual 4 ohm. I Can Wire All 6 of them Down to 1.67 ohms. so im my opinion the ma would be better. but what i really wanna know is which one does more power?

MA audio rated for 3600wrms @ 1ohm

AP30001d rated for 3000wrms @ 2ohm

I have used many of the Ma Audio HK line. Not bad amps, but huge current hogs. You would be surprised at their output.

The AP amp will probably put out more power and be more efficient.... given the choice I'd likely use it...

I have had the 802sx and the 4000d, they did power but like previously posted, they are huge current hogs. The Audiopipe would probably be easier on the electrical. I dont know about that 3600rms claim though.....

The Ma Audio amps will give a huge amount of power, but at a cost of current. The AP amps are dirty power but require much less current. Part of the trade offs. Its all up to you man. Just do some research and stay away from people who just post to say that brand X is crap but have never used it.

I have like 5 redtop optima's. but i dont have a h/o alty. would it be okay to run 5 optimas on the Ma audio amp since its such a current hog? wouldnt that kill my alty? or should i just stick with the 3000d and about 2-3 optimas?

There are competitors who refuse to use high output alts, and run upwards of 10k daily. You will have to charge your batteries on a regular basis, as the current draw will be quite a bit. Your alt should be fine, just keep an eye on your voltage. You need to get a voltage meter and hook it up back at the amps, for an accurate voltage reading, not one of those cheap meters you plug into the cigarette lighter.....

so will 5 optimas be more than enough to run this ma audio amp? and will it do more power than the ap3000d?

Your just going to have to hook it up and see what your voltage drop is. I have always ran bigger batts with a bunch of amp hours, I have no clue what the amp hour rating for those batteries are.....

Yes and then some. I have used Ma Audio for a good solid 10 plus years.

What kindof vehicle do you have.

I Will Be buying an SUV soon like a tahoe, suburban, expedition....etc

well to be honest i have 2 redtops, 1 yellowtop, and 2 huge 100ah deepcycle drycell batteries = total of 5 batteries.
