HI, im new to the forums here. I recently purchased a PG MPS 2500 amp. after doing a little research on it I found out it has an unregulated power supply and is stable up to .25 ohm. WHat i was curious was what the power out put was for the follow impendences
1 ohm bridged
.5 ohm bridged
.25 ohm bridged
1ohm stereo
any help would be great!! got this amp and never hooked it up as im afriad because i dont know the specs that it will push
I have a 4 gauge power wire kit, a yellow top optima, and a 140 amp high output alt.
THanks again for your help!!!!

Might want to think about replacing the capacitors before you go loading it down. Just a suggestion.

and i personally would use atleast a 2 gauge kit. i also never heard of wiring them down to .25 ohm. You better be careful with that, and if thats what you are really trying to do, better make that a 1/0 kit. I would think that would tkae alot of juice. Here is a link to the old pg webfaq. check out some of our stickies sir

i didnt really plan on running it at .25 ohm. thats just what i read somewhere. I got the amp for 30 bucks so im assuming its a great steal.

I don't have it sitting here with me, and I don't have one. So I don't know what size you need or voltage. I would suggest getting in touch with EricD here on the phorum if you have never done something like this before.

The caps I discuss in the below link are the same for any PG amp of this age.
