Leviathon bridged @4ohm output

Recommended Posts

I'm thinking about using one of these babies for my next setup but im a little confused about the power ratings...

in the two reviews here:

http://www.zedaudiocorp.com/Products/leviathan.html

the reviewers say it's rated 500w @ 4ohms 2 channels bridged and tested likewise

here its says 600w:

i would like to run my 2 sundown subs at 300/per but im not sure if i should go with 1 or 2 due to power ratings.

edit: subs are the SD-1 v2's rated at 400w

I spoke directly with Stephen, and I am considering running a Leviathan in Tri-mono. It is ratted for 3 x 300 @ 4, but he says it safely does 3 x 550. ;)

Just like I said. ;)

ZED rates the amp at 3 x 300 @ 4, but it will do 500+ watts.

So after reading this thread now I am scratching my head ...

OK so I plan on wiring a DCON 12D4 so that the Leviathan sees a 8 ohm load (bridged). This means that the sub will get 300w continuous right? ... or will the Leviathan actually put out a different number?

Yes, I think we should start the topic over. :lol: I think I made a typo along the way. The manual states 300 x 3 @ 8 ohm. So if you ran the Dcon @ 8 ohm off channels 5/6 bridged, it should be doing 300 watts. Chances are, with a ZED built amp, it has the ability to do more power. ;)
