[QUOTE="n2audio, post: 215534, member: 540940"] Actually it's not quite that simple. A 30 amp fuse will pass 40A for several seconds, and generally will pass 60A for a second or so before it blows. And by no means is it a rule to keep your amp's current draw less than that of your alternator. Many stock electrical systems are capable of powering audio systems approaching 2000 watts rms. Test tones may be a problem, but typical music will rarely if ever require 100% current capabilities of your amps. [/QUOTE]
