Your 2,000 watt amplifier is not 2,000 watts

[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8557586, member: 614752"] This is a bit more accurate. With a modern HO alternator and additional battery it is not difficult to get 2000W out of most of the respectable brands' "2kw" offerings. Not so much. Who is buying a legit 2k amp these days and not adding batteries sor high output alternator capable of feeding it 140A when needed? What mostly dated that article was the insinuation that 140A out of an alternator is unusual, or that 2000W and/ even a big amp. The more likely reasons that most will never see rated power out of their amp(s) have to do with the dynamic nature of music and impedance of a speaker system. [/QUOTE]
