this is my second post because my first one decided to disappear on me... and sorry for stickin it in the subs section, but the answers are just soo much faster :-)

so i was flipping through my amp manual and stumbled upon something that caught my attention. my amp is rated for 1300wrms @ 12.6v. now would i be correct in assuming that when my car is giving it ~14.4v, it is putting out more than that?
