skittlesRgood Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 (edited) i mesured both. i put the clamp on the 2 positive power wires for the amp draw test. the clamp was set to AC Amps. and i connected the DMM to the + and - speaker terminals on the amp and set it to ACv. the numbers r 64 amps draw from both Amps togeather(cause they r strapped) and the amps put out 109.8 AC volts throught the speaker terminals. well if the clamp meter was on the speaker wires as well (this would not be "draw" so im a little confused) then you were seeing 7027w if you clamped the power wire then you did it wrong. the power wires are DC current.
