PEAK output, my 401S states 1200W on the case. I think it is mis-leading but it is a true peak output. My 401S put out like, 450 watts with a peak of 1200W. I think way more companies than Pyle or Pyramid do this, as a matter or fact the ones that don't seem to be the exception to the rule!

Rating in peak power shows that in one way Rockford is not better than Pyramid. Rockford "900 Watts"= 300Wrms Pyramid "1000 Watts"= 375Wrms
