For Immediate Release D'Amore Engineering Introduces High Performance Car Audio Amplifiers! Gilbert, AZ - January 6th, 2016 D'Amore Engineering proudly announces the introduction of high performance car audio amplifiers! These amplifiers have been designed to provide the most faithful reproduction of the audio signal possible. The very first model to be introduced is the A1500.2, a two channel stereo amplifier rated at 325 Watts RMS per channel into 4 Ohms and 900 Watts RMS per channel into 1 Ohm. To schedule an appointment to audition the amplifier in person please contact us at (480) 612-4741. We will be providing in-vehicle demonstrations at the Orleans Hotel during CES, 2016. The A1500.2 is a True Dual Mono Design providing better stereo separation and imaging as compared to traditional stereo amplifiers - the chassis being the only thing common between channels. In an effort to provide the very best signal to noise ratio and lowest distortion possible, 109 dB (A-weighted) and <.002% THD+N (when operated in Class A) respectively, the amplifier utilizes a Mirror Image Design with positive and negative output signals of each channel generated using identically mirrored circuitry. Each of the two channels is also a mirror image of the other. In addition, the A1500.2 offers Selectable Mode Design with both Class AB and True Class A modes of operation available. The execution of Class A topology is unlike anything that has been done in a mobile application to date, offering a realism and truth to the source never before available from a mobile power amplifier. From a design standpoint, the A1500.2 utilizes separate PCBs for the voltage amplification stage and current amplification stage to maximize the signal to noise ratio so that it's dead silent. It has been designed from the ground up around the highest quality components available at any cost, including; Nichicon Fine Gold™ capacitors, Nichicon Muse™ audio capacitors, (14) On-Semiconductor complementary bipolar junction transistors per channel, and non-inductive resistors, all assembled on 4-layer heavy copper PCBs! Its dual mono channels can be wired as a single channel with double the output voltage for applications where high power is required. Finally, it includes a pair of gorgeous LED output meters to indicate actual amplifier power for each channel. Pricing not yet determined at the time of this press release.

just realized why these look so familiar

The line begins AFTER I get my pair.

I'm guessing 4500$. If I win this powerball this week then I will buy you all one.

Would love to have mine setup that way. But, visibility is bad enough as is LOL. Is it CES time yet? Im ready..... your penis pump has some burns on it. Better slow down man!

put them in the Mustang to power those HX2 18's One for the QSDs up front. One for the HX2s sir. Giddy-up.

Dude does some sick paint on the d boxes. I'm with Wicks. I bet it was the ces time restraint

What's wrong with the paint job? I think Kirill was referring to the orange peel in the black paint. Kinda looks like rattle can finish, definitely needs to be cut and buffed. Tony is a big fan of anodized aluminum so that's what I was expecting. Don't get me wrong, still a beautiful amp if its painted but I'm guessing that was due to time constraints on getting to CES. I'm thinking that he'll switch to an anodized cover in the near future.

What's wrong with the paint job? Orange peel finish.

So. Incredibly. Gay.

CES is on, where are the amp photos?

I'm thinking 3k to 4k

Im in the uk right now chicken, maybe they have a special for 2 people?

you know you can sell a testicle over seas for like $25k... ill be back in a couple weeks, i expect my amp will be built and ready by then?

well technically people need to know.. that will determine if you need to sell a kidney or not

5 Stars for this guy! Great seller, i see why he is on the Super Seller list! Bought this amp for a killer price, payment and shipping went smoothly, recieved the amp in the original box, with an unused bass knob in perfect condition. I was just expecting an Skar amp in a brown shipping box, wasnt expecting a bass knob either. Amp works flawlessly. Easy to get a hold of, and even messaged me to check up and make sure everything was working correctly! Great seller, hope to do business with him again!

Well I have 2 diamondboxx's might as well get a couple of these lol

Specifications look great and the parts too, layout is great. Will the paint finish be better on production units? Maybe i should start saving...

Think i just cheated on my wife. This thing is beautiful

The Morel Virtus line it of components are around $900...no idea about these I would be interested to know the price as well. All the ones I have found say call dealer for pricing...sooo it probably means I shouldn't afford it.

Off to change my pants........ When will pricing details be released?

Sick

Would love to have mine setup that way. But, visibility is bad enough as is LOL. Is it CES time yet? Im ready..... looks like its going to be a wild party

Guys, the reason we never finished the HLC is because of cost. By the time we got it all done, we would have to sell it for almost $200 just to break even. The fact an HLC is usually geared towards someone who is already taking a short cut (tapping into a factory speaker for a signal) leads me to believe that nobody is going to pay a premium for this unit. It is one of the cleanest HLC's ever made for SURE though. It might be released someday still though! Once we figure out how to get costs more reasonable. Remember, manufacturing something by the 100's is 100x more expensive than manufacturing things by the 10,000's. That hurts us too.
