Right...

RMS power

What happens when the coil goes forward..

And then the coil goes backwards...

Resistance is changing through the entire stroke, the entire time.

Along with the heat of the coil heating and cooling...

So what is this supposed to do, take out the 'peak' ?

Wait...isnt this "peak" what you get when you burp the sub?

So you even multiply by .707 when your using a nominal 1ohm resistor...even though current, and voltage and resistance never change?

You humor me....alot....

 
Wait...your just multiplying the voltage times .707????

Dude...no.

Where's the current go?

You can't not use current and get a true wattage reading...

I'm not even going to waste my time, keep doing what your doing....

I have always understood to multiply by .707, even when using true RMS meters.

voltage x current x .707 is what I have always used...

what your talking about i have no idea.

You only use that when you have a pure sine.

IE: AC voltage only as in an electrical outlet in a house that is 60Hz, only 60Hz and is not clipped/distorted/square waved at all what so ever, not out of an amplifier in a car....

Current x Voltage = close as your gonna get.

.707 = for only pure sine, and the odds of that happening in a car are slim to none.

Why would the amp not be putting out a pure sine wave?

Why would clipping mean you no longer multiply by .707?

Why would me sending 60hz through the amp be any different than measuring 60hz from my outlet... could I not set the amp to put out 120v @ 60hz and power any AC appliance the amp could handle?

Which btw... "your hero" noted the 2500d would do around 3500 watts on a good 18v system, which is just about right on par with my 3300 RMS watts from a 16v system... I doubt he was talking about max power in that situation.
