    4 X 1446 = 750/800 WATTS

    Those transistors are 70 watt devices they are a great transistor but those 4 transistors together are good for 350-375 Watts output.

    Theres issues with some of the computer switching supplied nowdays with a little to alot of hash and trash noise in some cases but theres a filter you can build and add for$10.00 that will get rid of any receive static hash. I hated switching supplies until I bought my little 40 amp MegaWatt...
