lol, neither of you can put out over 3000watts RMS though. to get that kind of power, you would need a much bigger a/b amp and definite power upgrade.

I was right there the moment he fired up the Neon and "I" couldn't believe the difference.
to "ME" I wouldn't own a Class "d' amp without trying it first

^^ hmm - I bet I can. I'll clamp my sundown 3500D next time and see what power she puts out.

forgot you switched your amps. and you plan on running that without power upgrades?
my point is you cant have that power off a stock electrical setup.
with an efficient class d you can.

i havent tryed the D class amp either to be honest,i've been told to stay in the a/b class since i'll be running some fairly decent speakers....

I was agreeing with vubulu. My comment had nothind to do with fuses.

As for fuses, they can allow current through then what they are rated for for x amount of time. So a 25 amp fuze that doesn't blow doesn't mean the amp is never drawing more then the fuse rating.

Alternator wise, if it can't supply enough that is where the battery comes in, I am sure avidedtr can have much more then jusy 300 watts.

That is like saying don't use multicore processors because they can't compute as well.

D class is all benefits.

its not me btw that said not to go for a D class.... my audio guy said that i waisted my money on speakers like the ones i got if i went with a D class amp. those are his words. not mine.

Do you think that the OP will notice a difference between a new class A/B and class D?

I've ran both and I like the sound of the D. Plus it doesn't get near as warm.

When it comes to SQ, avidedtr knows his stuff. After all, he is the current IASCA World Champion. Also keep in mind that SQ guys are freakish on detail (not a bad thing).

Good luck OP, I'll bet you're more confused now than when you started this thread! just out of curiosity, are you going to be listening to your system primarily when you're driving? if so, then you're going to have a really tough time hearing differences in decent quality amps. Here are a couple of interesting reads. Draw your own conclusions after thoroughly reading them.
