[QUOTE="Rob Timmerman, post: 132938, member: 172"] Re: Crest Pro-Lite Questions - Two 3.0 bridged or one 7.5 for a pair of Danley TH118 If you are running your amplifier on a 20A 120V circuit, you won't get more than 2400W continuous out of the amplifier, ever. Any amplifier with a maximum output greater than that on that size circuit MUST employ some form of current limiting, or the upstream circuit breaker will trip. The design tradeoffs in this limiting are, of course, up to the individual amplifier designer It was not uncommon to run the bigger Macrotechs on 30A circuits, and the same really needs to be done with the lightweight amplifiers for a fair comparison. This is borne out in the current draw ratings for the Crest amplifiers under discussion here. I'm assuming you've used similar power distribution for your comparisons? [/QUOTE]
