[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 7374238, member: 576029"] We don't know how much power you will actually draw until you install and setup the system. Power ratings are meaningless unless you play test tones at full tilt while driving. Music is dynamic and power output is usually a fraction of what your system is capable of. All depends in impedance load, source signal strength, gain setting, supply voltage, and volume knob. Your alt will only supply what is needed by the car and system. Get the largest one you can fit and afford. [/QUOTE]
