Who knows, set your gains with an O-scope and don't worry about it.

If you don't have one a safe bet would be 50% of rated power or 500w. Perhaps it will do more, but it won't be double (and therefore inaudible if different) so keep it safe.

Look the model number up on any search engine and you can find a link to tell you the specs. Just curious but why are you posting such basic questions that you can find on the net yourself?

It matters if you can find the answer yourself. Thats annoying.

If their site tells you its true specs, then why would you ask? Do you think theyre lying?

Nothing is ever right if you are looking at max ratings. Max ratings are a marketing ploy to get people to think they are getting tons of watts. In reality its a bunch of :bull:.

So no, you wont get 4k rms for $189. Its not possible. You will get max, which is what they are advertising.

The Kicker stuff will take what it says easily in their recommended box.

If you want to know the other limits of it beyond that you either need to install it many ways or to really model it correctly.

actually i take that back , because that is a class AB amp its more like at 60% efficiency and at best its really going to be around 780 watts at 14.4 V bridged at 1 ohm

in there at the store and specs they show you that at 1 ohm bridged it will do 1,080 watts but they are measuring it at 83% efficiency witch AB amps are rarely if ever that efficient
