keitare Posted June 28, 2009 Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 a little math and you will find that amp is overrated by 400 watts. 40a fuses x 5 = 200 x 14.4 = 2880 And what 3200 rms do you know that wants dual 4 gauge inputs Quote Subs are like titties, They need to come in pairs because ones and threes are just wrong, and larger amounts will always draw a crowd, we all have our favorite sizes, but the bigger ones are more fun to watch move.

Duvanator Posted June 28, 2009 Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 a little math and you will find that amp is overrated by 400 watts. 40a fuses x 5 = 200 x 14.4 = 2880And what 3200 rms do you know that wants dual 4 gauge inputs this is a very basic way to get really approximate numbers, but you also have to factor in efficiency. no amp will be close to 100% efficient. so to take a guess with the amp being 70% efficient, it will only be putting out round 2000 watts rms x2 on the md3 Quote head unit - Panasonic MXE CQ-C7403U amp - Cerwin-Vega EXL 1200D subs - (x2) Cerwin Vega V-MAX 15.4 box - 5.8 ^3 at 32hz spkrs- Phoenix Gold Rsd Comps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
