30-35 amp draw? Must be a small amplifier. ( sorry but I didnt view the video, simply because 56k says it all )

I might try using a digital guage just for accuracy.. how many amps should you be running?

What kind of amp is it? Each amp draws a different amount of current based on its power rating and class/efficiency. I have tested my two amp system and combined at max draw I saw 90 amps. I could have gone further but I didnt want to clip the signal thereby potentially damaging the subs and speakers.

The amp I have, the max current draw is 140 amps, but I doubt it will ever see that much. Once I get all the test tones and such that I need, maybe Ill figure out what mine is drawing.

is a small amp its a jbl gtq200 4 channel :redface: not that great heres a pichttp://guytoys.net/jbl/jdl3.jpg

Wow...thats a pretty old school amp...lol :biggrin:

 

But the fuse in tha amp is rated for 30 amps so what you are seeing is probably the most draw you are going to see from that amp....unless something goes wrong.
