[QUOTE="TeenWolf, post: 1003302, member: 561987"] Yeah...probably worded that wrong. Was talking about speakers when it should have been amps. RMS applies to both though. RMS of amps refers to the root mean square of an AC wave that an amp can output. RMS of speakers refers to the root mean square of an AC wave that a speaker can handle. As for the alt thing...I'll take your word for it b/c I know nothing about them [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] I just assumed that the amp would draw more voltage from the battery to achieve dynamic peaks. Didn't think an amp could produce more wattage with less voltage (The old saying: Cant get something from nothing). Always thought the headlight dimming was a result of the amp drawing more voltage for dynamic peaks and other car electrical stuff is suffering b/c the battery and/or alternator can't keep up.
