But it's 600W RMS. My Audiobahn A8000T has 2X30A fuses, and is 800W RMS. Which amp is most likely going to get the cleanest RMS output? I couldn't believe this when I saw it, so I just had to ask! |

Silver Member Username: TheelfkeeperStockbridge, GA USA Post Number: 402 Registered: Feb-05 | Not sure if this is totally right but each 30 amp fuse can allow 360 watts of power to pass before blowing. So your audiobahn amp can only produce 720 watts, the sony 1080 watts. (Amps X Volts = Watts) Thoes brands over rate their amp outputs. Also to get thoes wattages, you will prob have to give it 14.4 volts and a 1 or 2 ohm load, but they usually won't. |

Silver Member Username: TdbdadrummerPost Number: 284 Registered: Aug-05 | Matt, that's a good question lol. Brandon, Isaac told me he tested the Audiobahn amp himself and it delivered 750W RMS accurately. The Audiobahn amp does go down to 2 ohms as well. I just couldn't see a Sony amp, outdoing an Audiobahn amp. It just isn't possible lol! |

Silver Member Username: TdbdadrummerPost Number: 293 Registered: Aug-05 | I believe it was Glass that said though, that he likes the new CEA system, but it it doesn't require a company to actually test them or something to that effect... I don't see Sony ever realizing their stuff sucks, when too many people buy into it. What people here at Ecoustics.com message boards do, is good as far as educating a small amount of the public, but we can't save everyone...  |

They always sell more expensive the same goods that other online stores sells for way cheaper . I've seen decks they sell for $500 when other stores sell it for $330 . How do u think they are able to provide all that customer service thing ,stand-by operators/experts & free installation guides - all that = higher overheads so they MUST charge more than everybody else . On a blue moon they do have some incredible deals like that recently sold out RAA1000 MB Quart amp & some of their sub/amp/box combos aren't too bad ...... |
