[QUOTE="Spkrman, post: 1092176, member: 548682"] exactly... 645 watts isn't far behind the bx1605's 750 wired to 1 ohm.... and its ahead of hte bx1500's 550... lol [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] So if you don't know the actual power output.... you would think the alpine KICKS ***!!! just as loud as the bx1605 (to the ear)!!!! But no... the 1605 just sucks [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] don't think its uncommon for an amp to not come NEAR rated power when run under "rec'd" specs... it *never* happens. To get 75% of rated power under rec'd specs would make one hell of an amp. The only amp I've tested to do more than rated power at (or below) rec'd specs was my kicker dx700's.... they put out 818 watts each @ 2.4 ohms, at 12.5 volts! Birthsheet said 750 at 14.4 @ 2 ohms. The worst amp so far has been the autotek mm4000.... wired to "2 ohm" it did a wopping 1600 watts, thats 2400 watts less than rated! [/QUOTE]
