Ohms And Watts


Recommended Posts

2000 watts is 2000 watts

doesnt matter wut ohm load if its 2000 watts its 2000watts

lower ohm load will have a little more of a dirty signal but more power, higher ohm load will give u a cleaner signal but less power (on the same amp of course)

did I read it wrong, or is that backwards?...I always thought the lower the ohm load, the more power but more heat, so less clean signal.

well ohms and watts work hand in hand kinda sorta, like my amp, its 1000w@1ohm and is stable at that ohm load, but tipicaly the lower in ohms the more power u will get but sometimes can give u a distorted signal and fry somethin, but anywho the lower ohms the less resistance the amp has on pushin its raited power thats why like my amp for example is i think 600wrms @4ohm, 800wrms @2ohm and 1000wrms @1ohm, the lower the ohms the less resistance on the amp witch means more power but its not safe to drop a 2ohm stable amp down to 1ohm just to get more power cause it might seem like its pushin more witch it is but its distorted and starts throwin the 12v signal into it witch gives off the clipped signal or so i read, thats why its best to get a amp that will push what u need at the ohms u have, now rms means (Root Mean Square) witch means usally a sub thats 500wrms is somewhat 1000w max but by max is the highest clean signal it can have without blowing, like u can give a 100w speaker 500w but it cant distort or bottom out or ur screwed, thats why its best to keep ur ohms on ur sub and an amp that can push sufficiant power at the ohm load ur lookin at, the higher ohm load is good and makes ur amp run cleaner n cooler but may strain a bit on sorts, i hope this has helped u and if not then i unno i tryed my best lol, good luck with learning, smd has some of the best teachers around

here's a link to my system 99 toyota tacoma , 2 mtx 8000 1504's in a sealed downfire , 1000w memphis amp

here's a link to my other system my 90 geo prizm test car

heres a thread i got of new songs u can dl that are legal = Some Good Bangage/you Can Dl These Free And Legit
