ZED Audio Group Buy at SSA! Due to the interest, and to celebrate the release of the new line, we will be running a group buy on the new amplifier models from ZED. The all new KRONOS, a 250 watts x 2 channel, and the LEVIATHAN, a 150 watts x 6 channel will be the two models available. They are expected to be ready in the next month I believe. Final pictures shall only be available once production begins. * How the group buy will work is because these are serious amplifiers, we only want serious people. Meaning to avoid the big talkers, and keep this to the people that are actually going to buy the amplifiers, we are going to require a deposit of $75 a head of time. Once we decide there is enough to get the group buy put in or deposits stop, we will require the remaining amount based upon the percentages below. This will not be indefinite, so don't expect this to be waiting for you in 2 months. >>>>To place your deposit, paypal $75 to

[email protected] with the same information. * Keep in mind the MSRP for the new amplifiers are KRONOS $429 & LEVIATHAN $599. * How many amplifiers sold during the group buy will determine the total price will be based on this structure, meaning the more people get in on the group buy the better the pricing will be. ~ 2 group buy amplifiers allows 2% off the MSRP ~ 3 group buy amplifiers allows 3% off the MSRP ~ 4 group buy amplifiers allows 4% off the MSRP ~ 5 group buy amplifiers allows 5% off the MSRP ~ 6 group buy amplifiers allows 7.5% off the MSRP ~ >10 group buy amplifiers allows 10% off the MSRP >>> We will end the Group Buy when 24 amplifiers are claimed in the Group Buy or three (3) weeks after the first production units are shipped, which ever comes first. That way those who are in on the Group Buy don't wait that long. Edit: Leviathan information listed on ZEDaudiocorp.com: This will truly be a multi tasker as the options available will be really versatile. Full range, High Pass, Low Pass, Band Pass and sub modes are offered with the ability to have all channels as sub, 4 channels or just two. So the amplifier will do 150w x 2 flat, high pass or low pass (mono or stereo) on channels 1+2. Channels 3 +4 will do the same with the addition of the Band Pass function. Channels 5+6 will do full range or Low Pass (mono or stereo) with a variable subsonic crossover. You are able to: * Run all channels in flat mode * Run Ch's 1+2 High Pass or Flat and 3+4+5+6 in Low Pass * Run Chs 1+2 High Pass or Flat, Chs 3+4 High Pass, Band Pass or Flat and Chs 5+6 Low Pass * Run all channels Low Pass * Channels 5+6 can have 2 or 4 RCA inputs * Channels 5+6 can have their Low pass crossover deleted when used with head units having built low pass crossovers. * Run all channels flat * Run all channels low pass * Pairs of channels are bridgeable for 600w 4 ohm operation for a total of 1,800w - many guys prefer to run their woofers from separate channels as it makes impedance mixing/matching easier. Example you have THREE 4 ohm woofers. What do you do? Run them in parallel at 1.3 ohm = tough load for most amplifiers (Ever compared the sound of a nominal 1 ohm sub to that of a 4 or even 8 ohm sub - the 1 ohm sounds really bad! Solution with this or the two channel amplifier. Run two woofers in parallel on one channel and the third on the second channel when using the 250w/ch amplifier OR simply do the same with the 6 channel amplifier with a bunch of channels to spare OR run each woofer on a pair of bridged channels with 600w to each woofer. ------------------------ Kronos information listed on Zedaudiocorp.com: This amplifier shall be able to multi task. It will do the duties of a traditional 2 channel amp with High Pass, Low Pass and Band Pass functions. It will have loop through outputs for daisy chaining multiple amplifiers. In addition it will do what traditional mono block sub amps do and a variable 24dB/octave subsonic crossover and low frequency equalizer are added to the signal path. The loop through sockets become the 3rd and 4th inputs for constant subwoofer fading The amplifier shall be small and light and very efficient. A radically new power supply design is being employed in all our new amplifiers. KRONOS has a new circuit which constantly monitors and measures the impedance of the speaker. If the voltage x current product exceeds the safe limits of the amplifier, then instructions are sent to the power supply to modify its characteristics so that the amplifier remians in a stable opertaing condition.
