    Any new news on the tube amps, or x/overs. Oh man, I am so glad to see some quality equipment again, instead of nothing but bling.

    Just found this guy's channel on youtube. Just thought it would be interesting to look at. As there isn't many ZED builds here on the forum.

    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 there were still a few duces left to sell of the old product but I am looking for a pair of 4 channel amps or a 6 channel and a mono block. Any chance the new product will be out before Christmas? Are there production models yet?

    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!!!!!

    The US Acoustics 2300f was built by them right? I can still pick up a brand new one and was wondering if Zed built those models aswell. Also how much were them brand new? If I do decide to pick it up i want to know a starting point for negotiations.

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 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

    This may seem like a really dumb question but can these amps be mounted sideways without heat buildup issues? With the Draconia sold out, as well as other brands of amps slowly fading out of my mind, I am leaning on a 2x Minilith, Gladius BB, Duece BB combination that would just about take all the space on the back wall of my regular cab Silverado, forcing me to take the middle jump seat out and put my 10" Fi Q there. Or build some amp rack where they would be semi stacked (not one on top of the other, but close) or maybe some slanted shelf on to one side and sub box on the other. Either way they would be mounted sideways.

    Still trying to get over the fact that MEGALITH won't ever see production..... limping by with JBL/Crown 6K for consolation. Anyway, was talking with Stephen recently about a repair and he mentioned that he was working on an 8 channel pre-amp/processor/factory integration unit, similar to Bit 1, JL Cleansweep, RF symetry, etc. Sounded super sweet, still on , but hopefully it comes to fruition sometime in the future. I have been kicking around the idea of getting JBL MS8, but this gives me a good excuse to wait on pulling the trigger on that one.

    I am curious to know which of these two amps you all would consider to be better made? Here's my dilema.....I currently have a USA2100 in my car, and working fine. My speakers can handle 150 watts rms (Diamond audio's) I just sourced a USX2150 (no lightbar) also made by Zed Audio. IT works....sorta. one channels out, and the output of the other one is weak...definetly heading south. Is the USX2150 that much better of an amp to warrant getting it repaired, or should I just stick with the 2100, and then spend my money on locating a good 2300 for my subs? Or get the 2150 repaired, and then start looking for a 600f or 800f? How much would repair run on a 2150 anyways while we…

    Wow, this is great, a forum for some of the best amps ever made! I have a pair of ESX amps I purchased when they were being sold online a few years ago. I was amazed when I got them. They are beautiful amps. The heat sinks are so damn hefty, I swear I could use them to pound in nails. Well, I have always heard that the ESX amps were under-rated. Is this true? If so, by how much on average? (I have the 75x2) I'm using one of them bridged on an old-school Lanzar American 10" sub in a sealed box. This pro car stereo installer built it for me. It was his personal sub, but he couldn't use it anymore, because Lanzar had started building crap and he wasn'…
