[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 1943112, member: 555320"] What do you mean by "with the amp at 3/4"? You mean you have the gain 3/4 of the way up? That amplifier is rated to produce 1600w. If it is capable of that, or even relatively close, then there's no point in switching amplifiers. Remember, to increase a mere 3db you need to [I]double[/I] your power. Increasing the power to the Kicker's by a total of 500w (for example) will just barely net an audible difference in output. [/QUOTE]
