I'm looking for some experiences, reviews, and/or opinions from those whom use small amplifiers. Post your brand, model, and opinions. Thanks!

yup, another VS thread, and yup this is getting old, I am sorry. Seems the more research I do, the more questions I have. So I want more power than I originally thought. crunch ground pounder 3000 pro, ap3000d, AQX-3500.1?

Anyone familiar with these amps? I have 3 of them and I am trying to figure out what the switch on the bottom actually does. It has an "H" and "L" which I thought would be high/low pass filter, but it doesn't seem to make an audible difference. Also, Is the Remote and ACC relay on these amps known to go bad?

well today was the first time i've ever heard about stetson amps. i looked at there site and i will say that have a lot of amps with a lot of power. i was looking at the digital amps. are there rms ratings good? accurate or over rated? under rated? has anyone heard one?

I have a 15" Rockford Fosgate T1 1200 watt sub. Could kicker ZX750 with the below specifications power it well? Also is there an amp that is around the same price range? -RMS Power: 375RMS @ 4OHMS 750RMS @ 2OHMS -Input: High/low input -Ouput: RCA output for additional amp -Remote bass level control Height: in(mm) 2 1/8 (54mm) Width: in(mm) 9 5/8 (244mm) Frequency Response,

been waiting a while to get some 1/0 from knu just to get black 1/0 OFC. its been over a month and i can not wait any longer. so what i was going to do is either go all CCA 1/0 or do i go with the power as OFC running from alt to rear of car and use the CCA as the grounds. or just go with another brand? is OFC that much better than CCA? thanks for your assistance. will be running dc power 270xp alt.

Hello everyone. Had questions about how to tune my amplifier. I dont want to start slammin the BL and have it go out on me. Let me say first I have done my Big 3. Running 1gauge to rear battery. 4 gauge to amps. I have a good idea on how to set my amp gains. I read the HOW-TO here on the forum. What I need is how to tune this knobs on my JL AUDIO amp that I havent a clue what they are. First would be my infrasonic frequency(hz) knob. It goes from 15 to 60HZ. Also there is a on and off switch for that. Second, there is a Parametric EQ setting marked "Q". This setting can be tuned from 0.5-4.3. I belive its the bandwidth control. Anybody know for sure? What should I set my…

I was looking around today and found this amp at a local store. My friend has been looking for an amp that could run good power at two ohms mono or a 2 channel that could run 1 ohm stereo and I was wondering if this amp had any guts to it or if anyone could find some specs on it. I figured this might be a good old school amp. If you need some other pictures I can post them too. Thanks Kader

spent all day today working on my truck and with in the next week i expect to have an amp again for my sub. so let me tell you what my intended lay out is, what my electrical will be, and then you tell me if you think i will need a power cell in with the amps and what size capacitor i should use. 2 batteries under the hood (both AGM). one diehard platinum marine group 31 [1150CCA, 205RC, 100AH] and one diehard gold group 49 [975CCA, 190RC, 95ah] battery. I will have CCA 0ga connecting these batteries to each other, the alternator, frame, block, and 8ga for body. alternator will be a mechman 320A with 0ga ground and power directly connected. I will have either an ec…

Does anyone know the stats behind this ancient Sony XM-235 amplifier? I got it for free in a garage sale package deal with some other stuff. I found some manuals on-line but you have to buy them all. They all have pictures of the manuals front cover with a lot of stats but i can never make out the numbers or words because the resolution is so bad. Thanks for your help.

Yea i haven't made a post in a while. but came across this today. Well let me say this I went to the audio shop to grab a couple ft of 1//0 and they want 5.60$ per foot. I know its cheaper online, but weldingsupply.com has thier black 1/0 on sale for 2.15 or 1.99 if you buy over 50ft. cant beat the price https://weldingsupply.com/cgi-bin/einstein.pl?Next::1:UNDEF:OR:terms::PA#A2

So I've been pondering the idea for a while, but now I've started to putting it in real sense. I would like to take all my audio/video source into one media source. Now, I'm aware of people placing "Carputer"s into their vehicle, I guess in a sense, this is what I would like to do, but not 100%. I would still like to keep a 7" DVD unit as the headunit and the brains of my vehicle. Currently, I have the Pioneer 4300DVD, but I also have my eye on the Clarion NX702. Either system supports many ways to go about extending its media source. So currently, I've been using my ipod for the most of my music, and music videos. Then I would use the the cd/dvd slot for watching movies…

Here is the situation, I am looking into buying some 100wrms component speakers. I found this amp (Alpine MRH-F255) in my friends trunk and he said I could have it. After searching the internet i found out that it is running 35X4rms along with a subwoofer channel. Does anyone know how I would go about bridging this amp into a 2 channel (if its even possible). This amp is running a wire harness for its speaker outputs and so I have absolutely no idea on how I would bridge it... And if I cant bridge it, would 35 watts sound better than just the head unit to power the speakers (most likely Alpine spr-17s or sps-600c)? My second question is if i do deside to use the amp, I kn…

dc power offers a 270xp ALT and mechman a 320a ALT for my car im trying to power 8k plus rms watts two fosgate t2500 and one fosgate t1000,4 and two xs power d3100 and yellow top under the hood which of those two is best for me ?

So who is running what.........how do you like it compared to past head units? I am currently running a Panasonic Q 903...... and it is by far the best HU I have ever had. I had 4 Kenwoods prior to this one incuding a 715X....and this panasonic just blows it outta the water! :ph34r:

is ssa going to be making amps? the thought just crossed my mind as i was floating around caco.....

Hello SSA I am wanting to know what are the subwoofer settings on the head units supposed to be set at? I am trying to get the most possible but I'm assuming if they are turned up all the way up I'll be clipping? no really sure where to set them at. Anyone please help lol also sorry if this has been posted before, I couldn't find a thread on it.

The RXD2400 is here http://www.audiosavings.com/products/product-details.aspx?item_guid=9a264828-aec4-49a5-a358-7b5083208110 claims to be factory refurbished. And the BB2400.1 is here http://cgi.ebay.com/PLANET-AUDIO-BB2400-1-3000W-MONO-D-Car-Amplifier-Amp_W0QQitemZ350261934154QQcmdZViewItemQQptZCar_Amplifiers?hash=item518d3cf84a and claims to be new. Anyone have any input on this brand in general or these specific amps. I am looking to push a high powerd single 12 in a daily driver/ mild comp setup. TIA.

Anyone had any experience with these amps? Im looking for sq amps but it must be able to fit under the seat of my 07 frontier. This amp seems to fit the bill pretty well as far as size and with the class g/h design should be pretty clean sounding. It will be bridged to a pair of HAT CLARUS 6.5 components. Passive for now.

Will these really replace a battery?

I've been seriously considering this deck lately. For what its got its really one hell of a deal. Anyone have any info on the new pioneer decks? http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Pro...ers/DEH-P800PRS

hey guys, i was just curious of why stetsom amps are so pricy?? $560 for a 1500 watt amp??? like i said, just curious here guys. please do not bash

which amp would be best for my 2 15 inch mtx 9500's. they are d4 coils so im gonna wire them at 1 ohm

I tried searching on two sites and couldnt find it, but what does running at full tilt mean? Like blaring the volume all the way almost (3/4ths give or take) or turning the phase all the way to 180 or whatever? I dont know why I thought so, but I've always thought it was turning hte phase up...

Hey guys, i'm looking for 1/0 gauge wire for a big 3 upgrade. I was researching some wire and it seems that 1/0 is pretty damn expensive. I stumbled across this brand knukonceptz which was the cheapest, and i had to post something to get feedback, because i noticed in their description that their wires are made up of 90% aluminum and 10% copper. Now for an amplfier i wouldn't care, but i'm pretty sure for a big three upgrade i'm looking for least resistance, and that wire is basically all aluminum. I'm not trying to bash the company, but would you guys recommend this wire for a big three upgrade, or should i go off looking for something that has pure copper threading in i…
