[QUOTE="audiolife, post: 45352, member: 541383"] you are kidding right? alpine has a far cleaner output and its 60x4 ...like it matters anyway cause thats an exagerated number all deck manufactures do this funny thing is if you rate them rms it would be closer to 25 watts rms...alpine had the in dash cd changer in 97 eclipse has one now ...dont even think i like alpine you pay attention too much to stickers and not enough to what is really going on. only 1 brand of deck gets replaced more than jensen where i work at and that is audiovox ...now jensen has its place but not in my system maybe yours which is cool but by all means dont come here preaching to me about this being awesome or that being awesome and how i wasted my money ect ect cause reguardless what you say i will be sittin back laughin my a$$ off that someone believes everything a manufacture puts on a box or sticker cause weather u realize it or not there is really no regulation to what they put on it ........ and here is another word of advice if it has a multi peice harness it has it for the reason that they get REPLACED ALOT and they already EXPECT it!!!!!!!!! OHMS LAW TO POWER POWER =VOLTAGE X CURRENT YOUR CAR IS BETWEEN 12V AND 14.2 SO WE ALREADY KNOW 1 NUMBER TO PUT INTO THIS EQUATION WHAT IS THE FUSE SIZE OF THIS DECK? 10 AMPS 20 AMPS? FOR ARGUEMENTS SAKE LETS JUST TAKE THE 20 -(I HAVE INSTALLED 2000 + DECKS IN MY LIFE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LARGER THAN 15 AMPS) BUT WE WILL TAKE THE 20 NOW THAT WE HAVE OR NUMBERS CAUSE IF IT DRAWS MORE THAN 20 AMPS THE LITTLE FUSE WILL BLOW 14VOLTS X 20AMPS=280 WATTS WOW 280 WATTS WAIT A MINUTE THAT IS PEAK POWER MY BAD NOW NOTHING MADE IS 100% EFFICIENT THIS IS AT BEST A VERY CRAPPY A/B OUTPUT AMP SINCE ITS VERY SMALL AND SHARES THE SAME SPACE WITH A CD PLAYER SO I WILL GIVE IT A GRACIOUS 70% EFFICIENCY RATING JUST FOR A LAUGH .7 X 280 WATTS PEAK= 196 WATTS PEAK SO JUST BEFOR IT BLOWS ITS VERY LARGE FUSE AND A VERY FORGIVING EFFICIENCY RATING YOUR 240 WATT CD PLAYER IS ALREADY DOWN TO 196 WATTS PEAK..WELL WAIT A MINUTE DOESNT THE CD PLAYER MOTOR AND FACE AND LIGHTS NEED POWER TOO?
