Here's the setup, a pair of Sundown Audio SAZ-1500d's strapped at 1 ohm.

In the box used in the test (a single Funkin Audio MF12, dual 2), rise went from 1 ohm to 2 ohms during play. Here are the results:

Notes:

* Highest power on 16.0v rest was 4663 watts on 14.3v

* Highest power on 16.5v rest was 5136 watts on 14.3v

* Highest power on 17.9v rest was 5677 watts on 15.5v

* 84% efficient on 15.0v and 180 amps of draw per amp

There was a 10% increase in power starting 0.5v higher with an ending voltage being the same. There was another 10% increase when starting at 1.4v higher and ending 1.2v higher. This would tell me that a lowest voltage over 16.5v likely wouldn't be much of a gain from below that.

No matter how ya look at it, tapping the 5700 mark on 15v isn't too shabby from a pair of 1500 watt amps.

i juss love it, cant wait to get my 4. gonna be nasty

Can these results be divided by 2 to get the single amp rating at these voltages? I know in theory they can...but things rarely work out like that.

Do you have single 1500d at various voltage/impediance numbers?

Dividing by two works fine. We have not tested them un-strapped at high voltage specifically.

any idea if this test will or have been replicated on the 3000d?

Yes, the 3000D high voltage test is also sticky up top.

cool thanks must have missed it

so does this mean it gives out over 4500 watts at 2ohm at 14.3 volts

no 1 ohm strapped which if not strapped would be 1/2 ohm load on each 1500.

Is it safe to say that at 1 ohm reactive @ 15.0v each amp will do 2200 watts? That is sick.

lurkin'. drooling.
