corteznewbie Posted June 27, 2010 Report Posted June 27, 2010 so how do i figure out the true power of my amp at one ohm? so far i figured it does 1728 @ 4 ohms by doing the volts times amp but how do i figure out what the out put is at 1ohm? Quote Team DBs (Driven By sound)
Beanz Posted June 27, 2010 Report Posted June 27, 2010 oh kay what amp. Quote That's why they don't deliver. Yer ass better go sit along the side of the road and wait. You can't expect them to travel up some dirt road in a hick / back woods town. Thats how horror movies start I explain things very simply and use analogies in terms of Pickles, and grape drink, pool noodles and jackhammers...if you can't put 2 and 2 together there man, There simply is not much more I can do.
corteznewbie Posted June 27, 2010 Author Report Posted June 27, 2010 some brand my local shop wanted me to try a nesa 4000d i never heard of the brand. i do know now they make monitors and what not. and they are promoted threw the kicker reps Quote Team DBs (Driven By sound)
Guest Posted June 27, 2010 Report Posted June 27, 2010 let me ask you this OP, why do you keep making threads asking what power this Nesa amplifier outputs? if you keep wondering, buy the friggin thing and clamp it with an ammeter then tell us. Quote
corteznewbie Posted June 27, 2010 Author Report Posted June 27, 2010 i'm asking how companies come up with the power rating at 1 ohm know it all Quote Team DBs (Driven By sound)
Guest Posted June 27, 2010 Report Posted June 27, 2010 i'm asking how companies come up with the power rating at 1 ohm know it all a power source to power the amp, a frequency generator of some sort, an ammeter, volt meter, ohm meter, all sorts of meters. there is no mathematical way really to find what some amp does at 1 ohm if you just have the power level at 4 ohms.

Cashdollar2009 Posted June 27, 2010 Report Posted June 27, 2010 a power source to power the amp, a frequency generator of some sort, an ammeter, volt meter, ohm meter, all sorts of meters. there is no mathematical way really to find what some amp does at 1 ohm if you just have the power level at 4 ohms. Truf... Unless you buy it, get your actual ohm load to 1-ohm exactly, and clamp it yourself, you can't just plug numbers into a formula...

corteznewbie Posted June 29, 2010 Author Report Posted June 29, 2010 i have the amp all hooked up now and tried a 4 ohm load and whats a 1 ohm load dont notice the difference in sound or power Quote Team DBs (Driven By sound)
kleinteich2 Posted July 2, 2010 Report Posted July 2, 2010 (edited) 1ohm load on the amp. wire the sub(s) to a one ohm resistance level. how many subs do u have and what ohm r the coils? r they dual voice coil? r they single voice coil? from your last post it really seems like u and that amp fit together nicely.

stefanhinote Posted July 2, 2010 Report Posted July 2, 2010 an amp's efficiency level drops from 4ohms to 1ohm, so there isn't any mathematical formula you can use to find out its power rating, and then your voicecoils heat up and your impedance rises and it'll make less power. And you never mentioned at what voltage... So try again Quote
