[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8399652, member: 614752"] Not sure if RF amps use regulated power supply. Do they have different power ratings at 12 or 14V? If so they are not. AFAIK the Zed Minotaur is probably the largest regulated power supply mono amp, and his Leviathan may be the largest overall output. Zapco's premier line uses regulated power supply and I think they have a 400X2 which is a big arse two channel. Things like the JL slash amps simply limit the current at lower impedance so that it'll make "the same" power at 1.5-4 ohms. It's likely cheaper to do than to build the amp robust enough to double power when you half impedance. They're good sounding amps though and appear to deliver as advertised. [/QUOTE]
