ZED Audio

Hey guys.....how do you think (((2)Mini's Strapped to W7 or (1)Deuce))) would play out...being that the W7 is single 3 ohm sub? Wich way is going to sound better....and be most efficient....I already have the mini's and was thinking about changing those for the deuce.....OR may be some sub recommendations for the 2 MINIs....I wanted to run one moster...sub....thanks

I know that double power will give something like 3db gain in volume...is that about right? could be way off...I read it before long time ago.. I want to have plenty of power not necessarily use it but I beleive in headroom for when I need it ..like horespower..

I was all set to buy a couple of Zeds and then had a change of plans...well ....after lots of money and not even using half of the amps I did buy, I am on the verge of getting the Zeds after all.....if I do it will be a Zed Duece and a monolith or Gladius... I currently have a ARC 4150xxk & ARC 1500xxk and quite frankly like them but I am still haunted by not getting the Duece... I must first sell a Son of Frankampenstien which is a limited edition 4 channel PG amp and a rare amp(500 made) . I am getting this one a trade as nobody had cash for my new PG ZPA 0.5 monster 2 channel.. I am wanting to know what you had before you got the ZEd amps and what your impression …

Who said they are big? The fit right under the seat. One of the amp is bridged currently powering a single ID8, wired in 8 ohm. It's pretty loud but goes into protection rather quickly if bass boost is used. I am going to add another ID8 to run them 4ohm mono to get the best out of it. Here's the rest of my install. http://picasaweb.google.com/awaysooner/MyForesterAudio

Found this link, and I am trying to find out if this is the guy that used to work for Mr Mantz. http://stores.ebay.com/Audio-Clinic

I'm interested in the Zed Audio Gladius amp but I can't tell where the fuse is from the pictures. Does it come with a fuse? Thanks.

I found a copy ay Fred Meyers today. Here you go, enjoy.

Would love to have one, cant wait a year like Mr. Mantz said

well im stoked cause im bout to purchase a Gladius and Minilith. furthermore, yall did a great job, once again. i know im gonna love em so thx for producing such a great product at such a great price

I ordered 1 burr brown, 1 without....hope I made right choice...cant wait to see them in person.

Does Zed still make Nakimichi amps? I saw they just came out with some new amps, and wondering if Zed made them.

Found these old made in usa Rodek amps 235i and 280i. Are they Zed made? Thank you in advance.

I need to know if the gladius is strong enough for your needs or not... I am planning on running one to a pair of PG Elite components . I dont want to be short on power but I also cant afford to spend $400 an amp..... I am trying to decide between the Gladius and maybe another PG amp...Xenon maybe unless I can get a good older PG... I would really like to buy one of these new Zed amps..or 2...

I have trouble opening some of the files on Zed's website. It's mainly the TECH files where Zed explains Components, Amp Classes, Cables, etc... I can open the first few files up to "Components", then I'm not able to click and view the PDF or word file. Anyone know what I can do?

I just recieved my copy of the june issue and by god they reviewed the Gladius. Reviewer stated it is in the top 5 amps for sound quality he has ever tested. Congrats Stephen! Heck and this is the first time I have ever visited this forum too, but it looks like it is time to install my Gladius and two Miniliths and start my second SQ vehicle! Actually Anyone wanna trade a mint Minilith hand signed by Stephen for a Duece plus cash?

Man guys I finally finished my install.....got everything tuned up and its simply amazing.......people are swearin up and down I have hidden amps......my system sounds amazing .......everyone need these in there life.....CHECK these pics out.....my camera broke.....so I used my i930....camera phone....not the best picks but I think I get my point accross.......

Are the USX series of amp built by ZED? If so, Any thoughts on them. I've seen some around and thought I might buy one some time for the heck of it.

Is it possible to hook up the minilith using only the sub out RCA's. I tried this once real quick, but did not get any signal. Should I try just splitting the left and right out puts on the RCA to get 4 inputs to the amp. HELP!

As was stated in another thread, Zed is running low on his 12V line of amps. Can we expect another run for his current line (Deuce, Minilith, etc..) in the near future. I'm a great fan of what Steve does and would wait a few months or so. Do we know if the company os going another direction, or will the car audio amps still be part of Zed Audio. I'm not trying to start and rumors or stir up anything, I would just like to know if I need to wait patiently or find another amp to run my 12V needs. Long live ZED!!!!!

How underrated are they usually? just curious because I have a zed audio made US acoustics USA series II (IIRC) 4050 that does 50 watts per channel, Im assuming at 12 volts. So has anyone every benched this amp or a similar one to see what it actually does at normal operating conditions? Im thinking that maybe i should just keep it to run active with and sell my other amps (need the cash). Im guessing maybe around 75 per channel... Thanks guys

I'm getting ready to run this on a set of midbasses, it used to push the hell out of some Orion XTR's. I love it, just wanting some info. Any you may have... Thanks.

http://ampguts.realmofexcursion.com/Cadence_A7000+/ I picked up a couple of these. Are these true Zed amplifiers?......there is several stories about there being some sort of middle man that produced to many and cadence did not want them or something....just looking for some facts the ones I have do not have the plexi bottom but do have the a7000+ stickers on them.

I have this amp and it says 600 watts @ 4 ohms.I know it has more power than this I just dont know how much. If anyone knows the specs on this amp it would be helpful. What ohms is it stable to? What should I fuse this amp at since it has no fuse on it? Does it have an unregulated power supply? Class ? It is an oldschool amp but I would like to run it, just need some info. It was made by ZED audio . I have searched the internet but found limited info. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm in the market for a new amp to go in the house, and I got to thinking... Anyone know if Steve ever had his hand in making any home audio amplifiers? I know he does A LOT of contracting and designing for other companies and I figured he must have made some over the years. I'll probably give him a shout during the week and ask him personally, but thought someone on here might know as well. I'd love to have a Zed amp in the house.

i am new to zed audio's products and was wondering how they rated, specifically the deuce and minilith. are the ratings pretty much spot on, or are the underated? if they are underated by how much? i am going to be doing a new install over the course of the next few months and i'm trying to narrow down the equip. to be used. i am hoping to reach 1000-1200 for the sub stage and 100-150 for the comps. am i looking in the right direction or should i move on to something different? rob
