    Just got this for free from a friend. 100% mint condition plus 2 mtx 8" subs with a midrange and tweeter in each box. you know one of those funny looking combo boxes. anyways i really only have plans for the amp. realistically how much power would one of these put out at ~14v? on the bottom it says

    Thunder 240 N-Channel VFET Amplifier

    20 Watts RMS/CH into 4 Ohms @ .05% THD 20-20,000Hz
    40 Watts RMS/CH into 2 Ohms @ .1% THD 20-20,000Hz
    80 Watts RMS/CH into 4 Ohms @ .1% THD 20-20,000Hz
    200 Watts Dynamic Power (IHF-202) Bridged into 4 Ohms(14.4VDC)

    Note: RMS Power Ratings @ 12.5 VDC Input

    and it has a 20 amp fuse. i plan to use it on a kicker s12c 4 Ohm in a front loading horn designed by azn. i know these are good amps but i dont know much about this specific one. i'm sure i'll also eventually use the 8" mtx subs for fun.

    Ok fine haha. Whatever it takes for it to be the best. Do you think I should just use that t line design you made for starters?

    Yes its the exact same. So then I can expect over 200rms@4 ohms?
