The Laws of Nature
Supplying Enough Power
Your amplifier does NOT make power; it converts power, or current, from your boats electrical
system and converts it into high power musical energy. If the amp can't get all the power it needs it
will not produce its full output. Your Wet Sounds™ amplifier will produce full output longer than
other amplifies on the market today. Should your voltage or current drop too low the amplifier will
drop below the rated output. Make sure your boats charging system is in good working order. Any
high performance audio amplifier will increase the demand on your alternator and battery. If you
are unsure have you charging system checked system testing by a professional technician.
