Anyone know anything or had first-hand experience with these amps? I'm looking into buying one based on rep, but haven't had a listen to them. Any info is welcome. Thanks all.

I am looking at a arc xxk4050 amp that is a couple months old he wants 300. for it. Is that a good price? the sheet says 118-120 watts a channel. I have heard a lot of good things about arcs but never heard more than a couple minutes in a demo room

amplifiers like the ZR240? Mine has one for bass, but i'd like to find some others that I might possibly have a use for. Can you run the ZR240 without anything plugged into that port? Thanks in advance, Ed

ok, since fords are a bit**, and the ground and power wire are connected behind the engine, and i would never be able to get them off and back on without taking alot of stuff off, maybe even the engine, can i just cut the original wires, close to where it is connected and just add my new wire to it. Because most people say that if you do the same with an amp it wont make a diffrence, so would it work. nv about clip.

Got my Orion 1200D from HCCAfan yesterday, thought I would give Class D a whirl while the RF undergoes surgury :ph34r: for a couple mods. Hooked it up this morning and just got back from tweaking. WOW! I drove that thing pretty hard at 2 ohms to see what she had and one thing she didn't have was heat. Warm to the touch but not hot, my Audison was warmer from pushing the mids. I got it to push a GB RLp at 1 ohm, but it pushed my PG 12Ti pretty hard. I dropped in Kickstart my Heart from the Crue and it damn near stopped my heart . I am a hardcore oldschool guy that thinks the world of vintage RF, PG, and PPI, the stuff from when JL was still an idea . I give prop…

Ok, I have decided the XXX, huge amp, heavy optima yellow top 31 series, and massive box is too much for what I need it for. I am selling everything except the Rainbows and my HU to Jamie's cousin. Here is what the next system will be: 2 RL-i 8's sealed in a movable box Rainbows on a 150x2 amp (that seems to be the most power they can take) A matching amp for the rl-i's (around 700 watts) Audiocontrol EQT's and 4XS I would also like to be able to stay in the running for USACi 0-600 sq class. I can get the JBL's for about 550-600 if my eBay powerseller pricematch goes through on SD. I can get the Kickers for around 750-800 I think. I already have a PA VX3002, and anoth…

I just picked one up for $150 to run a pair of 10" IDQ D4's and a pair of CDT Cl-5x coaxes in my friends car. Just wondering if it was worth the 150 or not. 4 ohm stereo @ 75 WRMS x 4 2 ohm stereo @ 150 WRMS x 4 4 ohm bridged @ 300 WRMS x 2 all rated at 13.5 vdc

Has anyone used or have experience with Mark Antony amps. I have 25opcm, I think not sure. I just want to know if I should go with a different amp(do not know specs of amp). I will be running different subs for daily and comps but they both should handle 1000 watts.

Base your choice on experience and sheer quality of the product. Thanks for any opinions as well.

havent been here for a while, just been caught up in school and what not. Need some questions answered. I want to put a yellowtop in the back about a foot or two away from the amp. KX1200.1. How would you go about doing that, I'm thinking a battery isolator to keep from draining either battery when it's turned off. What gauge would I run to the second aux battery? Where would I run it from? The isolator? The alternator? I want it to charge along with my starter battery so it doesnt stay drained if I listen to it for long enough. Do I ground the second battery to the floor or back to the original battery? I really need some help so tell me everything you know about …

I have been researching the Diamond amps. Should I go with the new D6 line or the discontinued D7's?

Im looking to get one battery once i pick up my new car, i was reading some threads about the YT sucking after 1 year or so, i will be running a Hercules(2000x1) What would you guys recommend?

I keep hearing over and over to spend the money on speakers and processing. I am debating on buying a zapco ref. 360.4 and a 1100.1. This will set me back like 1400 bucks for new stuff from an authorized dealer. I am highly considering scratching the zapco amps and going with Crossfire. Either a vr404 or 2 - vr402's for the active front stage and a vr1000d for subs. I know Crossfire has a stellar reputation for SPL amps and that. Anyone have some good SQ competition with any of their class AB amps? The processing will not be an issue as I will be using an Audiocontrol MVC, 6XS, and 2 - EQT's. Thanks for any and all opinions or comments.

Well today i installed everything the concept amp and the SX 15. well about an hour ago. i turned on the car and no sound then changed cd. and nottin then i hear a BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM and look on the side of the amp and it shows cliping. and its going hard to where my lights dim crazy. the sub is a 2ohm sub i wired down to 1ohm for 1200 watts. what could be the problem the RCA's worked this mornign when i had my 500 watt amp. THANKS ALOT.

Anyone know?

Running a small eclipse 35x2 amp to power my components, what guage speaker wire do you recomend? thanks

i got my friend's stock HU from his civic cuz he got a new one and i want to install it into my 88crx but the back of his HU doesnt have wires hanging like most aftermarket ones, it has a slot just to plug the stock car harness into, so now what

this forum is alot better to get answers from. so i was wondering where sould i put the amp? on teh sub box? or on the carpet under my back seat in the van? does it matter? and should i look to get a CAP?. i have a 130AMp alternator and a Die hard Gold battery, and the amp is a 1200 concept. with 2 gauge wiring and the fuse i dont know what size? either to choose thanks alot i will post pics when i get it all which should be wensday next week.

well first i have a 1200 watts concept amp. i have a 2 gauge wiring to run but i am afried that it is too large for the entrence of the amp? would 4 gauge be enough? or just try my best to get the 2 gauge in?

ok, I am helping Brian look for an amplifer, he has on order 2 RL-p 12 D2's from the group buy, and now he is in need of an amp, so we need a final load of 2 ohms mono with about 600 to 1200 watts to push the subs, he is not trying to win any tropies just have damn good sound.. he is putting this all into a 2k4 Explorer in the cargo compartment which sits below the floor of the rear cargo area, after some quick measurements and no moddifications he has about 16" wide max, 1' deep, 5" thick to work with for the amplifer to sit down in.. so I thought that a few options would be: - the MTX 801D, good amp, great price, low on features, solid performer when pure power is the …

I just noticed that Treo is selling amps these days, looks they picked them up damn near a year ago too. Has anyone used or seen these at all, it looks like a nice amp and I'm sure it peforms equally as well. Does anyone know if they're using someone elses boards in them? I bet they only cost 2 arms and half a leg.
