[QUOTE="SlugButter, post: 8780284, member: 678073"] To get a true 2000 watts you’d need around 160 amps. Another 80 amps for the 1000 watts. This is one reason why home audio runs on higher voltage amplifier boards. To get 2000 watts at 48 volts DC you only need around 40 amps. The largest power supply I’ve personally seen at 12 volts is 100 amps and it cost almost 300$. Mean well was the brand. I used it for a bench top power supply to test amps and subs in my garage. 1200 watts rms was about its limit before it would go into protect. [/QUOTE]
