[QUOTE="treesive, post: 8342325, member: 631309"] All regulated amps take voltage drop into account. That is what they are regulating by. Load impedance is what RIPS is monitoring to change rail voltage. On a side note if you start out with a 1.5 ohm load, RIPS will set the rails for proper voltage at 1.5 ohms. When you increase volume and start to get box rise to say 3 ohms, the amp will not switch back to 3 ohm rail voltage. Therefore it will be giving lower than rated power after box rise. This is no different than having a normal regulated amp loaded to 1 ohm dealing with box rise. The benefit of RIPS is to automatically pick the right rail voltages to get you the rated power at the right starting impedance. PG, Rockford, JBL, etc all use a similar concept. The RIPS design is a modified version of the old PPi amps. 2350DM i believe. [/QUOTE]
