[QUOTE="csu87, post: 6517155, member: 608868"] maybe you cant read but the numbers are for both amps strapped. i never said 1 will do that kind of power but 2 definately will. second, maybe you dont know much about electricity, so i will help you out. volts across a wire x amps across a wire will equal watts across a wire. i did it the way sundown tested his amps, just he used an rms meter and i had to use a clamp and voltage meter to come up with the watts output. i dont see him clamping the power cables, i see him clamping the speaker wires, but i guess he doesnt know how to do it either, right? now if i wanted to see how much power was going into the amps, i would clamp the power wire and that would give me how many watts go into the amp, however, amps arent 100% efficient so how would that help me? lets say they do draw around 200 amps each like you said. 200amps x 12.5 volts = 2500watts per amp so that would be a total of 5000 for both by your logic which i know is unreasonable. amps gone sub still here [/QUOTE]
