Just wondering, whats the biggest amp made?
I know Zapco, and Audiobahn make a 4000 watt rms amp, but I've never saw anything bigger than that.

I've seen a 6500 watt amp, and I believe one rated for nine or ten thousand watts, but I really don't recall who made them.. I saw articles in passing and just sort of nodded and said "hmm" but figured the current needed to run those amps was so ridiculous that it made them novelties more than useful products you'd see someone actually buy for a system, street or competition.

Yea. Zapco's 4kw (that will get up to 5kw) should be enough for ANY sub... I think I'm gonna buy one just because...

Lol yeah, and the price tag would be rediculas.
I know the Zapco you're basically paying $1 per watt. 4000 watts... $4000 amp.:-)
The Audiobahn on the other hand isn't so expencive.

Well, if you feel like spending some money, the Zapco is a good choice.
The Audiobahn 4K is only like $1500... but still another choice.
And last but not least, you could power each with a Rockford T30001BD...:-)

I wonder what the actual output from that Audiobahn amp would be?

I don't recall the models, but I remember seeing a few Soundstream amps online that were massive. Seems like I recall one of them priced at $17,000. LOL.

Lol thats a lot.
I'm guessing the audiobahn is overrated, but I'd guess it should push 3000 watts at least?

I found one of those Soundstream amps at Woofersetc.com. It's the XXX-5000D. They have it priced at $11,500.00. LMAO.

Can anyone confirm whether or not Power Acoustik owns Soundstream now? I've seen this posted many times here and elsewhere.

I owned the Zapco C2K9.0, and all I can say is.... well, I'm still speechless. I sold it to some rich dude for about twice what I bought it for though...

I seen someone plug in a saw to the speaker output on a ZAPCO and then started sawing up a old speaker box. It was just amazing! The DMM on the speaker output was putting off like 110 volts AC!~ They had that amp turned up for real...

the Orion 2500d says 2500w RMS @ 1ohm throughout the manual and on the case it has a huge 5000w emblem...but no where in the included manual does it mention 5000w anything (RMS or Max)

US Amps came out with 6000 RMS amps. High Current
basically 2 3000 stacked internally. This thing was insane.
