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

    Flakko answered all questions and of course made me a SMOKIN deal on some Merlin amps....... I haven't owned US since 97' and I was happy then so expect i'll be happy now. I I would though like to ask for any reviews of the MD22 & MD2 amps or the others as well. Anyone actually looked at the ouput with a scope to determine, with adequite power supply to amp, where they start to clip at? Any info wold be nice I only found one thig on google . I don't frequent here as much as ECA and SD but I will now have to come here alot more often!.

    Hi I am very happy with all my Chrome US Amps USA series. However I am changing my system, and now need a better Midbass amp. I am looking at the Us Amps Merlin MD23 but I do not see anything other then specs written about it anywhere! Has anyone used it, and can give me your thoughts? I need a amp that does 300 Watts @ 4 ohm X2 and has a high pass crossover that can cross at 60-65Hz. The MD23 fits that perfectly. Thanks.

    I need to get in touch with him involving an amp of mine that he has and he hasn't been on ca.com in a couple weeks. I don't think Jeremy is scamming or anything, (he's Flakko after all ). Just need to get in contact and I haven't heard from him in 3 weeks.

  14. 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…

  20. My friend has the us amp Merlin md3d... He got it not too long ago perhaps last month for 400.... now i want to get it.... he said to give me my AQ. and 150... Should i go for??? This is also the friend that i sold my lv4 too.. I am going to get it back... I want to go back to my high school and win the competition they have.. ha ha... okay the comp. is not real legit. they do it by ear ... and stand like ten feet from the vehicle... and there mostly are trucks.. so it will be just a bit harder for me... Not sayin this is true... and i think they will be biased considering the some of the people that go...they think kicker or lanzar are the best thing out there...…

  24. My cousin has a MD2D that he got earlier this year on his 4 12s and was wondering if he added another MD2D or MD3D could he strap it with his pre-existing MD2D? If so does he need some thing that I heard about a few years ago called MLT or does he just need another set of RCA jacks or something or is it even possible to begin with?
