Most Underrated subs? (power)

[NDMstang65 10+ year member]

Fluke meters no lie...take that however you want.

It was true rms power, weather you'd like to admit it or not.

so your point is..your more intelligent then that of fluke's engineers who design the rms meters?

That was a fluke occurance. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

you could put it that way

Way to take what I say and spin it.

For thoes who missed the point of that write up... Volts RMS * Amps RMS does not always mean Watts RMS.

Fluke is awsome. We use Fluke for all of our test eqiptement at work. Fluke isnt the one doing the calculations. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

i bet theres a lot of people out there with a blown fuse in their meter and they dont know.....

Trying to measure too much current?

Happened to me one time. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Making a thread such as the one on SSA is out of ignorance as to how the Fluke true RMS meters work and how it applies to the scenario that i showed you.

We use the rms meters for a reason, and thats what your thread is about.

Ohms law, it does not get any simpler then that.

A heavy sigh is all I can give you at this point.

If you are sure, correct me in the thread.

Cut and dry, very simple reasoning.

Is it me or does .707 come up alot in car audio.

For AC currents that are graphically represented by a sine wave, the RMS current will always be 0.707 times the peak current. With that said, we can calculate current by multiplying peak measurements by 0.707 if the current is a perfect sine wave.

There is also a .707 related to box alignments or crossovers or something.

I was wondering if the two are related.

I'm argueing a ripe apple is red, not green and you are argueing how tall the tree is. That article stated nothing about calculating power from RMS voltage and Current.

this was suppose to be on music, not burp, and like i said, i got those numbers from people who have played with those subs and have put that much power to those subs, the type r for example, i wouldn't doubt if half a dozen people on this forum have put 1500 to it before daily, and alot of people have said they've put alot more then 2500 into a hd3..., etc...

this is suppose to be what is the general concensus about a sub that has been seen to be able to take well more power then its rated at and it should be safe if the power was clean and not distorteed/clipped from people who have used them...

its not meant to guarantee that anyone can pop a 1500 rms amp into a r in any box in any way with full bass boost and loudness on full blast and it will be ok...

and i was just curious as to what other subs are similar in a sense that they can take more then rated power if one knew what they were doing...
