davinci701 Posted August 25, 2011 Report Posted August 25, 2011 if a 5000watt amp has one 250amp fuse what is it really pushing?

CHEVY4X4BLAZER Posted August 25, 2011 Report Posted August 25, 2011 My kicker zx1000.1 is externally fused with a 250a fuse so what am I pushing?
zx10intn Posted August 25, 2011 Report Posted August 25, 2011 If you are talking about an in-line, external fuse than that has no bearing on an amps ability, you are fusing the wire that way, not the amp. If you mean fuses actually built into the amp, that's where my explanation comes from 1969 Chevy Chevelle 20/22" staggered Bonspeed Huntingtons wrapped in Nitto INVO's Mechman 250amp cs144 alt w/AVBM Kinetik 1800 main battery/Kinetik 2400 in the trunk Pioneer AVH-3200dvd Headunit (2) sets of Hybrid Audio Technologies Imagine components up front (2) DD 3512's d4 coils Sundown sax100.4 component amp Sundown saz-3000d subwoofer amp 5ft^3 box tuned to 34hz MY BUILD

CHEVY4X4BLAZER Posted August 25, 2011 Report Posted August 25, 2011 What exactly does the brick wall mean?
BJD3 Posted August 26, 2011 Report Posted August 26, 2011 What exactly does the brick wall mean? Amplifiers aren't 100% efficient. And while this is a good way of finding potential output, it doesn't necessarily mean the amplifier is actually outputting that power. Anti Peel and Seal...lol You may be offended by the above. Don't take it personally, I'm just abrasive. 2002 Buick Park Avenue DC Level 4 M2 12 D2 Car Audio Bargain 1600.1 Eclipse CD3200 ~2 cubes @ 34 hz. Stinger Roadkill Expert
