[QUOTE="mastershake575, post: 8714754, member: 665251"] 100% agreed. In the right application it's fine but blaming user error is not right when it's actually the amps fault. The efficency rating on most of the models at 2 ohms and 1 ohms is ******* ass. If you upgraded your alternator to deal with the fact that it's pulling the **** out of car then the cop-out is "uhhh your giving it too much voltage/power" If you do the reserve and just try to do a bunch of batteries (which will cause the voltage to drop) then the cop out is "uhhh your causing the voltage to drop too much" (it's like no **** this amp is pulling an extra 20-30% for the power it's truely putting out" ) Those that actually spend over 1000 dollars upgrading to good electrical are going to spend the extra couple hundred bucks to get a more efficent amp that can better utilize there power I actually think these amps are more suited for 4ohm daily setups. At 4ohms you don't have efficency or thermal issues and bang for your buck it's still a good deal (on some of the higher wattage models i've been seeing 4ohm with box rise still getting around 1400-1800 watts which is hard to beat price wise especially given low stress on both the amp and car) [/QUOTE]
