snafu Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 Your amp isn't going to pull 200 amps on music. Music has duty cycle. If it makes the rated 2,100 watts RMS into 1 ohm, that translates to about 91 amps with music assuming 80% amplifier efficiency. Double that for test tones.

Wish I would've known this before I went and dropped money on a new alt lol. Oh well, guess that just means I can have twice the power I have now when my 235a alt gets here Quote Build in progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
