[QUOTE="randomguy0o1, post: 8502030, member: 669377"] My amp (900w RMS) is being powered by a 750w computer power supply. When I turn it up, it acts just like I have it hooked up to a battery. Nothing shuts off, it doesn't sound quite, and there isn't any distortion. Is it bad on the amp to turn it up to the correct voltage (square root of rms*ohms)? Specs: AMP- Hifonics Brutus 1516.1D @ 2 ohms (900w rms/1500w max) SUB- Sundown Audio SA-15 D4 BOX- 4.1 ft^3 @ 32hz [/QUOTE]
