[QUOTE="brfitzp, post: 6336100, member: 614514"] well last time i didnt do any measuring and used a different amp. Is it ok for the numbers to go higher than the numbers at the tested frequency? Do those numbers mean the amp is really getting that many watts? Also i wanted to test my friends car cause he has two kicker 12" subs, fairly cheap ones and a cadence txa3004 amp, he's running them each bridged so it should be 300 watts per sub, when i hooked up the multimeter and played the tone he was getting about 550 watts per channel and even higher with normal music, and thats playing it as loud as he would ever normally play it. That definatly clipping right? It's a 600 watt amp and he was pushing 1100 out of it:confused: [/QUOTE]
