Bond is a real good guy, he also fixed a soundigital 8k for me, he only lives like 45 minutes away from me, from what I've seen, most stetsom blow from operator error,even my set-up, I can't blame the amp or the company if mine blows because they don't advise half ohm nominal...I know they get damaged a lot during shipping from brazil, both of mine where, if I had hooked them up without Bond correcting what was damaged in shipping, I'd be in the same boat as a lot of people that have these amps blow on start up. Another thing about the technology in stetsom, you have to let the caps charge, especially in the big amps with all those caps and high rail voltage. I have a remote switch that I can turn the amps on/off with. When I first turn on the radio, I leave the amps off for about 3 minutes to let the caps charge, hope this helps.
If you were aware how capacitors work . . . . Shit, nevermind.
This was told to me by Steve Hasenbein, he was the first person in North America to run Stetsom amps, he use to be the east coast stetsom rep, he runs a pair of stetsom 14k2e's as well, the 2ohm version, he has ran his with no issues for over 2 years, wired at .7 nominal with a 3 times rise, and clamps over 13k each...I'm not a tech guy and have no idea how the caps work inside the amp, just following the instructions of a guy that's ran the amp for years with no issues

DB-r doesn't work for stetsom lol, they are the only 'Authorized' repair company.
Lmao TY i agree, that fan is so freaking loud the first 1-2mins, then quiets down lol.
DB-R use to repair stetsom, and your right about the fan being loud, but i can deal with it, there is another guy in New york that repairs them as well, his name is Gustavo his shop is called mega repair, I have his number somewhere, I'll post it when I find it.

I know this thread is old, and I'm not even sure what problem you had with your stetsom, but I run a pair of 14k2e's at .5ohm daily and have no issues with them, Demetric Bond, the repair guy in Carolina, looked over my amps before I installed them, had to straighthen out a few mosfet feet that where damaged in shipping,but other than that the amps are solid. Jefferson was very helpful with the install of my amps to make sure I didn't blow them. They make a ton of power and sound better than the pair of aq20k's that they replaced. My experience with the amps and Jefferson have been fantastic. By no means am I making lite of your situation, just sharing my experience with stetsom and Jefferson as a whole.

Most keep to smaller, amazing sounding installs.
I understand, just never really posted on here, and got tired of all the b/s on the other forums

This build has been done for a bit, Was designed and build by Scott Bowman and Nick Pro of team nemesis in Wilmington N.C. I just switched amps from a pair of aq20k's to a pair of stetsom 14k2e's, I haven't had a chance to test with stetsom amps, but to the ear, it is deff louder, enjoy!
old set up

sketch up of 4th order 2:1 ratio 12 cubes sealed 24 ported
test fit for batteries
Loading wall
test fit for old bass amps

These are my old subs: american bass hd's, not really 4th order friendly
changed subs to nightshade v2's because the hd's didn't like 20,000 watts
new subs: thanks Jacob Fuller!
clamp numbers from the aq20's when I ran the hd subs:
Pro and Scott got 11k from one amp rising to .9 from half ohm
first run on the tl
Mike singer alts
Thanks to Vance Wilkie for installing my alts and bracket!
