someone had some time on thier hands

I did an extensive test with amplifiers from 1200 to 1600 watts on their manuals, i did tried the brz1200.1 against the ap1500.1 , both of them wired at 0.5 ohms and gains set with an O-scope, the AP1500 MURDERED the brz1200.1 by 500 watts and 0.7 dbs louder on the termlab, i wouldn´t change your amplifier for the brz1200.1 unless he gives you some extra money lol
so you tested 2 amps that dont have the same rating in the first place, and made a conclusion by wiring 2 completely different circuits at an impedance level that had nothing to do with what the amps rating was. different amps handle impedance differently, and not all amps make the same kinda power gains when wired down. So your "test" is pointless.

Yeah I do love my ap but a lot of people on here seem to hate it. I think its a better idea to stay with it too, gives me a better option at 1ohm when I upgrade. Thanks guys.
yea people do hate on them.. i think its because they are cheap and people think they dont put out rated power ( and they do..and CLEAN power too)..lots of videos to prove it.. or they had a "friend" that had one and it blew..prolly bc he was using extension cords for pwr n grnd and 20g speaker wire
your wrong. totally wrong. do not do rated power and especially not clean.
Audiopipe amps and Hifonics amps are in the same category, cheap ass amps that are overrated a little but people will buy them because they are the only option at the budget they are willing to spend.

i dunno about you guys but i dont remember going to any concert and sitting with my back to the stage.
-
wow January dudes been up there as a scammer for a LONG time.
-
why dont you hit up compustar and they will point you to a dealer near you
-
components not composites
i wouldnt waste time with components at all in the rear. coax the rear 2 sets in front if your doing some custom doors or soemthign

autopage isnt the same anymore, look into encore if you loved autopage in the past
-
being form a brick and motal store i prefer companies not support just any and everyone. no offense to you i just like it better that way
-
I like compustar that's what I was trained on but I hate that there trying to make it so only people with dealer accounts can program the bypasses
sounds like preservation of a brand image if you ask me....i wouldnt want non authorized dealers messing with my stuff then it not working right and people having a bad impression on the company.
-
compustar for me. depending on your car 399 installed should be right around where your at for a 2 way setup
-
thats a no point trade honestly. just keep what you have.
-
that was a noob comment and a half.. you can underpower somethign and still distort the fuck out of it and kill it
-
i dont have sigs turned on but output will be 3 to 4db lower most of the time in a good hatch setup transfered over to a trunk.
-
lots of work for some entry level subs in a prefab box thats a pretty bad one at that
-
isnt it a 12 spoke basket?
-
building great systems for years but obviously not great boxes
-
you need Swi-ps for pioneer
-
great unit, faster interface then past years and much more integration. you wont regret your purchase.
-
still looking great.
first time ive followed a thread in quite some time.
-
would love some in my house
-
box size around 6.5-7 cu. ft. tuned to 36 hz with 16-18 in of port area per cu ft.
i'll x2 that
-
I know most of your builds are pretty loud, is that something your looking for here, or just a goos sub blend with what your adding elsewhere? I know you probably arent looking to rattle apart a brand new car so i understand if your not looking for some ridiculous number, guess just pretty anxious for box results.
-
i missed it in the 8 pages of stuff but, what kinda volume and port area are you working with?
Is this trade a good idea? (ap1500 for brz1200

again you tested a 1500rms amp against a 1200rms amp
both of these amps are trash.
on the rf vs dd thing, it always bothered me that my RF amp that was rated at 1500 and did 1980 birthsheet had a 4gauge input..... I've done quite a bit of clamping too and your TL gain or loss is pointless because you can gain or lose a db from 2 amps doing the exact same power.
