[QUOTE="pensacol, post: 3087073, member: 575946"] How well does the V x V / ohm equation compare to actual output wattage? Is it even close? I guess what I am trying to say here is I just measures my JL Audio 250/1 and it output 32.8 volts, so that would come to 32.8 x 32.8 / 2 ohms = 537.2 watts. This is with the gain about 1/4 of the way up, 12db octave, set at 42 hz, and 3db boost. Can it be possible to get this much wattage out of this amp with the setting like this or is this calculation not that accurate? [/QUOTE]
