How About a Side by Side by Side by Side by Side Comparison?

how is the SQ on massive/audiopipe ?

thanks

I'm not a sound q fella... but... their 950.5 amp sounds much cleaner than my kicker zx700.5

the amps do a little more than rated power and seem to be pretty clean sounding.

Here are a couple of pics of the AP30001D. I noticed a little extra glue inside and, obviously, it has more exposed wiring than the Massive.

The amp makes a LOT of power but consumes so much current that it isn't even practical for a lot of guys. If it doesn't make 3k RMS, I would be very surprised.

did a little testing today...

Massive P950.5 5 channel amp rated to do 500w at 2 ohm on the sub channel.

Power Consumed: 13.22 volts-37amps=489.14watts

Power Produced: 38.7 volts-11.8amps=456.66watts

38.7/11.8=3.28ohm

so it's almost doing full rated power at 3.28 ohm! and at 36 hz

that's roughly 93% efficient at 3 ohm... not too shabby

testing was done with a single d2 ohm 10 in a 1.2cubic foot sealed box..

too bad the truck is only doing 127db with a single 10 and 450ish watts.... bummer... I'm doing pre-testing before I do the actual build. the 950.5 will be running my mids and my subs for daily duty---bigher amps for spl use

did a little testing today... tried to get to a lower ohm load....

Massive P950.5 5 channel amp rated to do 550w at 2 ohm on the sub channel (I entered the wrong rms value in the previous post). rewired the sub to be parallel (1 ohm nominal_resting) The gas tank is out of the truck so this is just off my one extra Batt... Voltage was low to start(12.2) with and dropped even lower... dropped down to 30hz for testing to get the ohms down (impedence rise)...

Power Consumed: 11.7volts-49.6amps=580.8watts

Power Produced: 33.8 volts-15.6amps=527.28watts

33.8/15.6=2.17ohm

that's still roughly 90.8% efficient @ 2.17 ohm...!

so it's almost doing full rated power at 2.17ohm, 11.7volts and at 30 hz

also did a db reading at the same time... basically 130db at 30 hz with just 500watts and a single 12

not Loud at all...
