[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 1531649, member: 555320"] Yes, I know. And it'd dissappointing that they are misrepresenting the amplifier like they are. Sorry about the link Stroker Boy..... Here, this one should work: [URL="http://www.carsound.com/UBB/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=18;t=010998;p=1"]http://www.carsound.com/UBB/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=18;t=010998;p=1[/URL] Pay close attention to the posts by werewolf. On page two Werewolf does a [I]very[/I] good job of explaining why this amplifier isn't really a "true" 15kw "RMS" amplifier. Even has the math to back him up [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] And yes, the developer posts in the above thread aswell, and werewolf does a good job of poking holes where holes need poked. It's more like 15kw "burst" power because, as werewolf showed, the amplifier can only support 15kw of output for [I]less than[/I] 16 seconds (using [I]favorable[/I] assumptions). After that, like "regular" amplifiers, this amplifier is limited on power output by what it's drawing in....or less than 4kw. And I believe the current draw is 350A, not 150A. Plus it's pulling very high constant current due to the need to constantly recharge that high internal capacitance. 350A of near constant current consumption is totally different than 350A of peak current consumption [/QUOTE]
