Just wondering if anyone knows if Audiobahn quotes RMS power figures for their amplifiers.

I am looking for 800watts RMS to power 2 Eclipse 15" subs. The amp I have (A8002T) now is rated for 800 watts @ 4ohms. (I have two 8 ohms subs) Alls well if they are quoting RMS figures, but I can't find anywhere in the manual or their web site that says if it is RMS or not.

Here is the amp if this helps.

Audiobahn A8002T

Thanks for any help,
Later,

Sorry guys, I finally found a statement in their FAQ's saying that they only rate RMS power figures.

FAQ's

Anyone know how realistic Audiobahns figures are?

Thanks,
Brad

I had the A4002T I think it was, it was alright but the weak pre-outs on my alpine didn't help to much but then I got a line driver and was big difference I never had a problem with mine... never really got all that hot either... and punched my Kicker Comp Vr 12" pretty decent...

Oh yeah itw as rated at 400RMS and seemed to have be on par, least with comparying to ther 400rms amps...

Take it with a grain of salt.....but a friend of mine benched tested a A12001DT (if I remember correctly.) that is supposed to put out 750x1 RMS at 2 ohms mono. His reading was closer to 560 watts RMS. BUT.....I don't know if it was A. a defective amp or B.properly tested.

Thanks guys. I was wondering how acurate they were. I guess I will see how it performs once the install is done.
