I am a little unclear as to what exact Lanzar amps were built by Zed Audio. I understand they were the OptiDrive ones but there are several different Optis. Anyone have any info and/or pics?

Thanks!

The chrome colored opti line:

1000.1D

500.2

200.2

100.2

I think there's a few more and a 4 channel. The newer optis have a more flat topped heatsink and the Zed ones say "designed and manufactured in the USA" the new ones say "designed in the USA"

All the older ones have great pre-amp features and a nice clean Zed board. I have some pics of my old 500.2's here:

Thanks very much for your response. Reason I asked is because I found one locally for sale at a good price and of course I wouldn't be interested if it "wasn't" a Zed made amp. By the way.....I was looking at your pics and man do you have a bunch of goodies. I also noticed those USX amps. I have one myself and indeed they sound LOUD and clear....but not good on the power consumption.

Actually the Korean made Opti line is pretty good by all accounts. Almost worth going that way if you want to have somewhat matching amps and get big class D power. I've heard the 1000.1D Zed made isn't terribly stable at its lowest impedence without mods.
