So m5.. You would use a class d for an sq competition build? No one is building hi fi audio, home or mobile with d class amps!! Home audio guys dont even use a/b usually. They're using straight class a and tube preamps! Hahaa any way isnt this forum always pushing the fact that sound quality is mainly subjective ?? Well i own a decent class d four channel and.. I dont like the sound it puts out.. So well see! I will change nothing but the amp and give a real world opinion.

Bottom line is that i appreciated the sound of the old school amps more than new shit. Am i insane and biased?? Yes and maybe but im moving to a gh class on the highs and i am pretty excited! Sexy lookin lil amp and i got it shipped from authorized dealer for much cheaper than retail..

Edouble101, you said no probs? Did you like it?

Nothing to do with gain!! Lol same vehical, exact same setup, two different class amps.. A/ b amps seem more " " dynamic. Hard to explain... Mainly noticed on snare hits and cymbal crash.. Just sound more " crisp". Anyway didnt wanna argue. Like i said i ordered the amp. And with that being said, i will soon post an add in classifieds for a mint 1 year old jl xd 400/4 with box and manual. Again, thanks all for the input!

When i say "sq" i mean a clean sounding, quality made amp. And watts are watts... However all amps rated at 75x4 will not sound the same. These new class d amps do not sound nearly as good as a regular old a/b amp. Ive had over a dozen systems since the mid 90s and the a/b amps have way more balls!! The class d shit falls on its face at high volumes. I bought the ARC. Ill give some feedback when i install it. Thanks all.

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.

Ok .. It sounds relatively normal to me. Kinda cool actually. Ive contacted mechman also.. Thanks yall

So i guess the alt should be completely silent?

Mechman 270 installed in a 07 nissan frontier. Is it normal for these alts to whine? It sounds like alt whine that you would hear coming through someones speakers,but, its coming from the alt itself. Alt is working great otherwise.

Wtb a bc5500 or sundown 4 or 5 k or the like.

correction on my last post i currently am running a jl xd 400/4

Anyone got an Arc Audio ks 300.4 or 300.2 in good shape im interested! im running a jl xd 300/4 now and i dont care for the sound of the d class 4 channel amps on the mids and highs. i may be forced to buy one new but arc amps are never on sale!

THATS IT!! hahaaa

im the same way, smashed ! some days im like "damn"! and some days ijust wanna bang the credit card for MORE POWER! HAHAAA! its never enough

i dont drink! hahaaa def hits harder when it warm but thats cause the surounds and spiders are more pliable..and the windows down.

i have a xs d3100r that keeps growing whitish greenish crystalized corosion on the negative brass battery post. whats up? is it leaking?

anyone else notice this? its my mids highs and sub all seem louder!

thats a good point about air density..

also this is with windows up and down..

Ive noticed that my entire system gets louder when its raining outside! i know this sounds weird but i wonder if the weight of the water on the panels acts as a mild deadener? is the moisture creating a better ground perhaps? pretty odd..

also i turned my gain up a hair and apparently i was pussy footin! lol its just under halfway up and this thing is slammin now! starts to clip on trap music and decaf at like 35-36 out of 50 on the head unit volume... is it possible that thgis thing is still breaking in after almost a year?

that would be a lil more than a recone! how much is a recone and a new basket?

what coils? ohm load?

Why would i recone it?

Its a crew cab truck and yes the icon is in 2.5 cubed at 32hz. Its the kaotic single ported 12 box from the ssa store! For most people this setup is more than ample but i just wanna run a 15 really.
