afrakes Posted December 5, 2012 Report Share Posted December 5, 2012 Keep in mind, its very possible tha I'm wrong, but what it looks like to me is a new marketing scheme that means the same thing as max rating... Just a smarter way to put it since people are learning not to buy an amp based on the max rating... What amp did u see those ratings on?

wellington Posted December 5, 2012 Report Share Posted December 5, 2012 The difference is that cheap brands use anything other than RMS wattage and should be avoided. Also, dynamic - changing, static - stays the same. So it's just another word for "not constant". It's a little different than "maximum". 2010 HHR LT - DNX 6160 - sony xec-700 - sony xm-4040 for door mids - XM-6020 for tweets in a-pillar - saz1500d v1 - VVME RD-12 1.75 f^3 32hz guru and president of the "cheap asses trying to beat up the block with bargain bin woofers" club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CleanSierra Posted December 5, 2012 Report Share Posted December 5, 2012 Wellington, I didn't know DD and Rockford Fosgate were cheap brands using the word dynamic. I might as well go pawn my Fosgate amps with this logic. OP, typically from my understanding, dynamic means power for bursts. Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.
