Default Rushmore Amp /Elec. Limits

Pondering a unicorn hunt and it could require adding another amp to my sled.
Currently have a BT4180 and a NVX MVPA4, would adding another NVX jam up the Rushmore electrical system or do I have some good head room remaining before I should be concerned?

Thanks!!!

T.

I'm not sure that it is going to tax it as much as you're going to lose sound. At idle, with my 600.4 and my micro4v2 turned up, the volt meter dances...going down the road, I'm good. But even with it dancing, I don't notice a loss of volume.
We've tried digging here before with no avail...hopefully someone can offer up some good info on this subject.

Thanks Bagger!!!! I might give it a shot and worst case I will back out of it and run some stuff in parallel until I can get a feel for the speakers and what amp might be a good replacement for the current NVX, not to mention where I will have to give up space to put such amp.

Thanks again!!!

What's your setup plan? from what I've seen of your setup is sounds really damn good.
