Anybody know the actual rating on this amp? I know they have it listed as 60x4 + 1x125 @ 4 ohms or 125x4 + 1x200 @ 200 ohms but I find that suspiciously high for the price of the amp. |

Wow, not even any RMS specs in the manual... What I would use for comparison is the ratings vs fuse size of the HF brutus 5 ch. It's 55x4 + 200x1 @ 4; 110x4 + 300x1 @ 2 with 50Ax2 fuses. The Crunch has a 70A fuse. So maybe 40x4 + 150 and 80x4 + 250?? I hate to just guess, but with as little info as they give it's about all you can do. |

GP series is rated a peak power,so half of that is the RMS power. Besides the GP3000D-Pro it is rated RMS power. |

Already bought it. I was going to swap out for the 2 amps i have in my car before i sold it. A alpine and an infinity, but i said what the hell, i'll try this one out. I like the 4 component + 1 sub setup. I dont like uber bass just fill. I like matching things properly as well. I'll buy good speakers so if this amp sucks i'll buy a new one. But i don't want to blow my speakers in case i do. |
