August 6, 201015 yr Only time it matters is when it's at 10% and by then the woofer is cooked! So yeah it does kinda matter. lol
August 6, 201015 yr That's not going to happen, uber crappy flea market amps don;t have THD that high.
August 6, 201015 yr Yeah I believe it does more than rated, but saying 2854 does not fly with me.POWER : 1970 WattsAMP VOLTAGE (measured) : 49.25 VAMP CURRENT (calculated) : 40 AACTUAL IMPEDANCE (calculated) : 1.23 ohmsSUPPLY VOLTAGE : 12.85 Vbump the voltage up a little an this beast could 800 over the rated 1500 I'm sure.... improbable but not impossible...Sundown rates their amplifiers at 12.8 volts, not 14.4 volts like Rockford.Fosgate gives a THD rating with their ratings Sundown does not. This game can go on forever.Both are nice amps. Period. . dotActually Sundown does give a THD rating with there amp ratings.From the Sundown Website -<LI>Tested Voltage & THD : 14.4V & Less than 1% THD
August 6, 201015 yr Author I never said it does 2854...just sayin what the bc says....there are so many variables to this no reason to argue...sundown,fosgate who cares both are good amps...and imma say sundown is the better one but don't sit and act like I'm running some sony xplodes haha...

Those numbers are useless to the average user, and in no way are relevant or related to rated power. Ignore them. Forget you ever read them. They're useless, pointless, irrelevant, meaningless. And stop comparing them to "rated power".....they are not comparable!
September 7, 201015 yr Post 12 in this thread has been a blessing thought I would never read that THANKS!
