[QUOTE="n2audio, post: 6781717, member: 540940"] As usual with Soundstorm and brands like them the amp appears to be extremely over-rated. The only rms rating provided in the manual is 1800w at 4 ohms, although some retail sites list 2500w at 2 ohms. The amp is supposed to be used with a 175A external fuse. Logically, that leads one to believe the amp is not capable of much more than 1800w rms. The manual states 1 ohm stability so it's a pretty safe assumption the most power would come at 1 ohm. The 2500+ rating is pure BS, and the ridiculous max ratings are even worse. [/QUOTE]
