I count PEP as being what the cheating CB shop wants to show you on their cheating meter.Working Cowboy wrote:RIIIIIIGHT I COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND NOW........????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

What do they mean what do they pertain to
RMS is the solid business that your SWP General Lee is doing.
PEP is always higher, so a CB shop will want to brag on that higher number.
RMS is the solid business that can be very low, and that's why your SWP General Lee can stomp on someone that claims a higher PEP. Because RA raises the RMS / audio value, as I understand it.
RMS root means square is the math that's involved, Falkon or RA can explain it, I would have to break out the books again, and you would need a couple of stiff drinks to get any pleasure out of that explanation.

Oh another good one is:
You know how some of the really cheap audio amplifiers in pawn shops and such, claim that they are 300 watts or so, but if you look at an Alpine, Rockford Fosgate, or other high quality amp, you notice that their 300 watt amps are twice as heavy, twice the size, and twice as loud?
The high quality stuff tends to be rated in RMS, and the cheap stuff is often rated PEP, peak, or max.
The high quality stuff will also have a peak or PEP rating, but it will be much higher than the PEP rating of the cheap stuff. The high quality stuff is willing to show you the numbers of the "business" being done.
Furthermore, I understand that RA's SuperWackPack raises the average RMS "business" to a significantly higher level. (aka: the mud-duck stompin' magic)
