[QUOTE="olds97_lss, post: 7517575, member: 621499"] I was under the impression that RMS wattage was what an amp could sustain and peak wattage was what your kind of explaining. Seems that typical RMS ratings are half of peak. With that in mind, an amp rated at 100W RMS should not put out a constant of 65, to me, that's failure. [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] Thanks for the explanation. I turned up my gains a bit, so what used to be 30 on the HU is 25. Seems to do better this way (ran it hard for about 45 minutes during my commute), but still heats up a lot. Didn't shut down though. [/QUOTE]
