Is it alright to power a sub that has 380W RMS power and 1300W peek power with an amp that has 240W RMS power and 2400W peek power? |

Yes. Don't even bother looking at peak figures. They mean jack (who cares what power it can take for 1ms at 1khz cycle before it blows up). |

It is ok, just note that this does put extra strain on your alternator as it will be working alot more (they usually push a maximum of 70 - 100 amps). I went through 2 alternators and 2 batteries, i was running a 400RMS mono block and 200RMS 4channel amp. It all depends on how much you run it really. i was running mine all the time. You can get upgraded alternators (not 100% about sr20) but the are way too expensive. EDIT: wow sorry for posting on such an old thread, why was this on page 1 |
