u gotta be a dealer to be on team stetsom?

Nope! Cause I surely am not a dealer:laugh:

Hello Jacob.
Both SD12kD and SD16kD have 250V on the power supply, and a H-bridge output...

250v it is then //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

I was thinking the 16k was 300v ? Or is that a model in development ?

I know that, Jacob , so what you're saying is that amplification technology has reached its peak. now and in the future. there would nerver be a 10,000 watt sundown amp, because u was scared of new technology , I guess that's what Kicker,fosgate, and jbl was thinking when they went with unconventional thinking. There is nothing 100 % but there's always room for improvement, the fosgate t15kw is a prime example, still 15,000 watts on cars electrical. I know we're off the original topic, but this is interesting.

We're not talking about just making more powerful amps...anyone can do that, you just build something bigger. The RF15kw isn't defying the laws of electricity, trust me. What we're talking about it the impossibility of an amp being more than 100% efficient and creating gobs of power without needing to draw as much amperage. There's no way to get around drawing a certain amount of current for a certain application. The only way would be higher voltage, but we're stuck with 12-18V for now.

Hello Jacob,

It is 250V, only the voltage drop on power supply is smaller than the 12kD (because of the bigger power supply).

The solution to putting out more power would be increasing the voltage to the amp(out of the current amps on the market). This is not hard to do but most amps would blow up if you give them more than 18 volts. You would need an alternator that put out more than 18 volts, a way to keep all the other electrical systems in the car below 14.4 but above 12 volts, a special battery bank hooked up to the alternator that would take whatever voltage over 18 volts. Next you'd have to have an amplifier that could handle more than 18 volts. Sound easy? Go design the amp to do that and have it produced. Until then, no one should get on here and say "oh it's just technology, we can make it better!". I'm sorry but car amplifiers are not high on the "electronic shit that needs improved list" and until someone designs and builds this amp, we won't have it.
