who lies and who truths, specs?

By regulating the voltage rails, the output power remains the same, no matter what the load. Personally, I dislike the idea, to me it shows an unwillingness to produce an amplifer that is capable of high current, and a "shortcutting" company. PG didn't USED to be this way, I was a fan years ago, but now? I'm not really so sure. Haem, correct me if I am wrong but at the start of this thread you praise the JL. Is it not regulated as well? Is there something I am missing?

I don't recall "praising" it, at all... I recommended it (SOME of their amps - the A series, specifically) as a decent amplifier, with honest specifications. The amps they produce with a single power output rating, at whatever load, still fall under the category of "not a fan"... The company still "installs" shortcuts, making it not the best amplifier, IMO.It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

Cool, just looking for clarification. The way I read the first post I guess I assumed you were talking about the slash series.

a 1600w mono amp is a high powered amp. high powered is just thta, alot of power. i wouldn't recommend hifonics for good quality. decent dollar per watt ratio, but low on the quality.

Whatever you do, DO NOT let the white smoke leak out of the wires.....
