Post Explanation of my Amp Power Specs Sheet?

http://community.webshots.com/photo/...48521874opvhnx

That is the link to my amps spec sheet. I'm trying to figure out whether it's telling me that it's throwing out 75 wattsx4 @4ohms. Is it that or are they trying to tell me that that's what it gives at 2 ohms? I've been under the impression that it's been throwing 75 watts. And if it's really giving 286 watts bridged then my 8" is getting that much power and handling it like a champ. Help me out?

Link doesn't work... you need the one for external people to view it, not you...

from what I can see, it's 75 x 4 at 4 ohms and 286 x 2 at 4 ohms. That's what they are claiming

Those power numbers are for when the engine is running. You'll notice at the bottom that it says that the measurements were taken at 14.4V. The numbers will be lower if the engine isn't running.

I noticed that . Well the last time I played the system with the engine off my 3 year battery exchange warranty went into effect so.....I still can't figure it out. I want to post it on www.sounddomain.com but that site is a POS. Grrrr. Keep the opinions coming please.
