Has anyone benched one yet to see how much power they put out? I am wanting to know how much continuous power they have been tested to put out at a 1 ohm load, what was the voltage it needed to achieve that power, what THD, etc. I just want to hear from some people that have actually tested them

i dont think there is anyone on here that is a dealer for usamps.

None of you have tested these amps yet to see what kind of power they put out? I would figure with some of you being dealers would want to know what type of product you are working with if it is under or over rated, etc.

my bad I thought someone told me they sold US AMPS and Autotek on here

most stores do not have the equipment to properly and accurately bench test amps (THD, wattage, efficiency)
and i dont think they'd stock every single amp from every single manufacturer for the express purpose of benching them.
at least the shop i work at doesnt.
look here i dont think it lists the true output power, but its the best i can do for ya. maybe try to contact US Amps.

^Wrong... If I'm a RE dealer... shouldn't that tell you something... Yup US Amps too... But as jonnyb pointed out:

And since I carry so many different car audio brands along with tons of other items, I couldn't stock every piece of equipment without having a shop the size of a super mall.

Or the bank account of Bill Gates!

you can test real world power output with a true rms clamp meter and a true rms volt meter and be pretty damn accurate.

^That's true. :happy055:
