Usually, you can find the amp's actual power output on its birth certificate.

Couple of quick points. Alpine cheats a little bit on the rating card that comes with V12 amps, they rate @ 1000hz only. Second if you buy this amp from an online dealer other then Crutchfield there is no factory warranty, even if the seller says there is.

There is no such thing as free installation!

Also im looking at buying a set of SPR-17LS's are you happy withe the SQ that the alpine spekers provide

absolutely not, i had a full set of type-r speakers in my last car, id rather use the type-s i think they have a stronger midbass where the r's sounded too thin. look at JL's VR line of speakers before you buy the type-r's...they are in the same price range and sound 10 times better imo

Here is another question .... if the RMS of the speakers are 75Watt and the RMS of the amp is 50Watt Will that cause me to max out the amp to power the speakers only 75% ?

The differance between 50 and 75 watts RMS in this case will be minimal, maybe 1 db of volume.

Pretty much the opposite. If you did run the 50 watt RMS amp at 75 watts it wiill do it but with a very high distortion number. The tweeter would be the first to go.
