What is the output voltage of an amplifier?
Power = Voltage^2/Load Resistance
For example an amplifier that is rated to deliver 50 watts RMS into an 8 ohm load would be 50=Voltage^2/8 or 400=Voltage^2. Solving the equation, we find that 50 watts into an 8 ohm load means our amplifier is delivering 20 volts at full power.
What is the max voltage that a car amplifier?
The limiting factor is that the amp can only work with the voltage provided by the battery and alternator – about 13.5 to 14.0V in most cases. This voltage limit means that the most voltage we can apply to a 4-ohm speaker is about 13 volts from the highest peak to the lowest dip.
Does a car amplifier put out AC or DC voltage?
Amplifiers themselves do use DC power, but AC is used for the signal from the amp to the speaker.
Are car amps 12v DC or AC?
For starters, your car amplifier is meant to receive its voltage from a 12 volt DC source which is your car battery. Common households use approximately 120 volts AC. So you can see that we two problems. The first is that we need 12v and not 120v, if this was the only problem it wouldn't too hard to solve.
