Amp imput

Recommended Posts

Well sold my synergy 35.1 so i can go more power for my freshie dc level 6 18. Really wanting to look into the synergy 7.1 to match my 4.150x... has anyone had good or bad luck with these, the 7.1 or something similar in power and price? 7500x1 at 1 ohm for $1599. Ive wathed the dyno runs and watched youtube vids of the amp but not talked to anyone firsthand.

No idea, not used or seen that amp but will say that Youtube videos will show you nothing of value and regrettably the SMD dyno is equally useless and can't measure anything.  It is just a way of collecting money from noobs.  So beware of anything you thought you know from those sources.

True. It doesnt show reliability. Real world use. Ect... i already have issues with the bass knob mine had. Amp worked great. As soon as the knob was attempted amp went into protect on the first click. Unhooked it and amp was fine again. Even contacted them and my response from them was "in our opinion the knobs are garbage". What?! Why send them with the product then. Yes they may put out the power, and i loved my 35.1 so im not trying to product bash. But nobody wants issues.

It also doesn't indicate anything about power output.  Neither videos or the pos dyno.  Absolutely as useless as the DD-1 paperweight.

About the only way to get input on an Amplifier is to buy one, test, and tune. You can go to shows and talk to real owners, but for the most part, it's all install specific depending on power on tap, driver, and enclosure build. And most important, vehicle in question. 

Good luck my friend.

Yea thats gonna be the plan after i recover from putting a new roof on my house. I wasnt dissappointed by the 35.1 got decent numbers from one sub and the enclosure i had. Never clamped the amp but did decent numbers after the new electrical. (146.4 @ 35hz 147.9 @ 35 hz drivers window down). New enclosure will get started this weekend and ill try to get some pics posted of the build as i go.

Clamping is pointless so don't bother.  New enclosure time is always sweet.

New memphis mojo components. My buddys a memphis dealer. I bought the first set. Last time i looked they werent even on memphis 's site yet. The pics of the dc do it absolutely no justice. Its almost comical as big as the thing is.

I'd demo those components before installing them.  Sure the high end will be loud, but there is going to be a monstrous suck hole in the frequency response.

The passenger door is in and playing but no glasswork is done yet. Theyre loud but not overbearing loud. Im not blown away by them by any means. But i got a good deal so cant complain. I definatly might end up changing them out down the road.

Thanks. Actually came across someone local (well three hrs away) here in ohio to build a box for this monster. Josh Wahlie is gonna take it on. Time is a major factor in subcontracting.. between my 18 month old and my work schedule things are crazy on my end. Always wanted to try a kerfed port box so i suppose its time.
