Ditto with the 2 ohm speaker load. Change those specs to 12V, 8 ohm and the numbers drop VERY fast. I suppose what was my point (I probably didn't state it clearly enough). Optimum vs. real situation power outputs. I agree that MB Quart has an excellent rep, I've never used their gear so can't comment first-hand.

Agreed 100%.
Looks like we both agree on another thing as well. Alpine is amazing!
