[QUOTE="1aespinoza, post: 8827384, member: 654802"] You are correct on suspecting these claims. As proven by Ohm's Law, it takes power to make power. If the amp was 100% efficient, you would multiply that 60a fuse by 13.8v (car running) and you would get 828w RMS. But since no amp is 100% efficient, a rule of thumb is to multiply Amps by 10v. So that amp is ~600w RMS. This is for Class D amplifiers, Class A & A/B have even lower efficiencies. As for the price difference, several factors play a role. Mainly is country of manufacture and quality of the components. [/QUOTE]
