US AMPS

Now I am not going to point fingers at us amps quality because it is probably me doing something wrong. Anywho, I have a us amps xt1600.4 runnning focal polykevlar 5.25" components. I have the focals in stock door locations with the tweeters mounted on the pillars. The xt1600.4 has a .5 farad cap on it. I have not yet fine tuned the gains because i have not had the chance but they are roughly set. I expected this combo to blow me away, but it is not any better than the old boston component set I had running off the HU. My question is: Could the gains need to be changed, I mean, can that cause distortion? also, I have some sub par rca's from scosche. Could that be it? Last…

Ok guys, I have been using U.S.Amps all my life and nothing else has impressed me as much as them. However, whenever I stick up for U.S.Amps by claiming they are better than the new Rockford, JBL, etc. People laugh and start claiming how U.S.Amps are never seen in any world finals of SPL or SQ, or rarley seen. I dont have any info on what U.S.Amps have accomplished throughout the years as far as Sound championships or anything goes, and I cant seem to find anything on the net, so could the people that have the info post here with links or info in order to arm me and other followers of U.S.Amps? Thanks~!

well someone finally broke into my truck and walked off with my us amp 2000... it was in an impound lot. the best part was i didnt have a cd player in my truck, so after my pops picked it up and i was in school all week, i came home to my amp missing, i filed a report with the police dept. and they plan to help me out, so hopefully i'll be able to get some money out of this and buy another one.. or maybe one of them new us amps.. oh well.

Get me stats for the Vl 200 please since asking over the phone and waiting for an answer will get you old, and possibly dead, long before an answer. Trying to sell the gd thing. Thanks ahead.

can you strap a ax1500de and how would you do it

Is this a standard part on the AX line or is it optional? Is mounted inside or outside of the amp frame?

Are the us amp 2000 series amps still being made? since the move, i've heard bad things about their new products..

THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN RESOLVED and yes i am authorized lol i think mr. ///M5 said it best : http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/i...ndpost&p=149447 - Flakko

hi, I've been looking to buy a new amp for a while, and every model made by US amps seems to be top quality, but I was wondering what the prices were? and where do you buy them? I'm looking to buy a class D mono amp that does around 1000 x1 @ 1 ohm... thanks

hey i just wanted to see if anyone wanted to try out an AXTU300C i have another one im going to use to biamp my front stage, but while i am waiting for the speakers to come in and finish fiberglassing, i said to myself, "why not let the nice people on SSA try it out?" since this is a very esspensive piece of equipment, i will allow 5 people and to my discretion to be able to try this out. The sender pays shipping to the next location. the stats of this amp are as follows: 100x2@4, 160x2@2, 320x2@4 anything else youll find on the stats and pix page. if someone can bench it, that would be really cool. so yea people sign up!!! 1. DBfan187 2. ngsm13 3. ///M5 4. mrray13 …

All i can say is WOW... just wow. im a believer Jim, ima believer. the music got louder, more detailed, and most importantly it doesnt clip! i have to listen to all my music again tubes forever. i cant believe im only getting around 100w from this amp... but one thing is wierd...sometimes when i change tracks, the amp doesnt kick on... gotta wait a few seconds, and it comes on. i dont know whats up with that.

hehe this site needs more exposure... after slaving by his computer for hours maybe days, Ravo has released a working database www.12vdb.com www.12voltdb.com add equipment you own or feel that you have a deep connection to, write reviews, etc etc!! 12vdb is now open!! thanks to all who have helped (especially Ravo and Megahurtz)

I recently installed a 1600.2 in a PUG 206 1.6 .Τhe amp was running 8 8" Celestion truvox 8Ω mids. (4 per channel) so the nominal impedance per channel was 2Ω .The amp is a true beast despite the small size.It rocked the mids like hell,but when i turned it off it popped with a quite annoying noise...I checked the wiring,reset the source unit (Alpine CDA 9835) replaced the RCAs, the power/ground cable the speaker cable and retested.Νο improvement .Still the amp kept popping when i turned it off.I raised the impedance to 4Ω/channel and the popping disappeared!Retested again at 2Ω and it came back At one last attempt i swapped the amp with another 1600.2 and it did the sam…

hey yall im looking at purchasing a US AMP and want to kno which one do yall recommend: this USA 400 http://cgi.ebay.com/US-Amps-USA-400-2-chan...1QQcmdZViewItem or this DE1000 http://www.speedsound.com/product.asp?specific=jnirnmdng am mostly interested in an AX1000DE if any knows where to get one but for now which do you recommend.

there was a mention of input sensativity issues on TP about the IS's, someone said anything more than 4 volts could cause problems? is this true?

Just out of pure curiosity, why did the old amps have all the funky colors? Any real reason, or just because?

US Amps Merlin M2130 US Amps auction Never seen one like this, just curious if anyone knows anything about it.

Hi guys I just thought I would ask here to save Flakko from too many more of my Pms : XT-1600.2 / IS 2200: Are these pretty much the same (internal wise)? I keep being told by various people that the XT are brilliant but will not hold up like the other USamps will, do they mean that in a 'you can't play them in to lower loads than recommended as well', or is it a 'they are going to die on me before the other would under normal useage'? MD22: Hows comes they stopped this? Was there somethign wrong with the design? Is it worth spending the extra on the MD22 over the above XT if they're going to be under normal useage? Oh and something in for the above models in general: …

Okay, i just picked up a couple oldschool USA-400's (the 24" long ones) and im wondering what the real power ratings of these things are. ive been getting alot of mixed answers, and google isnt cutting it. of course ive come up with the 1200x1 at 2 ohms, as per manual. But ive been reading that these amps put out WAY MORE than this. unregulated power = 10 percent gain in each volt about. and other various gains. ive seen 1600-1800w at 2 ohms... 2kw+ .. amp stable to 1/2 ohm. etc.. but i dont even know what's what anymore. what is the real deal on these amps? ie: whats the benched performance of these things? i may run a pair of subs at a half ohm... or stick with t…
