Trâgîk Posted February 25, 2011 Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 I know alot of people are using AQ & I'm just wondering what's makes them any better? The specs are horrible & not impressive at all.. I understand for STRICTLY SPL they don't matter that much, but to see a damping factor LOWER than 150...damn That's in the Boss, Pyramid range... am I missing something?? Tons of watts are NO good unless you have control....hence Damping Factor!! Guess you get what you pay for... First that number means nothing because the companies dont give you the impedance so there is no meaningful comparison to make. It could be 100 at 1 ohm or 8 ohms who knows... But the amps have been tested, compared, and critiqued by thousands of people on all these website and boss is nowhere near thier level.

AMI CUSTOMS Posted February 25, 2011 Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 I play music thru my 3500d.1s strapped at around 6.5 ohms at 155+ db. Sounds great to me and the hundreds of people who have been demo'd by my truck. So what's your point?

AMI CUSTOMS Posted February 25, 2011 Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 Everyone knows that AQ is releasing SD 8 and SDC 2.0 line along with the HDC4 in the near future. I seen the prototype HDC4 last weekend, massive cooling vents around the coil.

Feel free to run boss is you want, to each his own. you are correct.. They don't give the FULL specs, but most cheap, internet companies are known to inflate these numbers... If that's the best he could come up with...that sucks I'm not saying these don't put out alot of power, i'm sure they do... Power acoustiks put out power & i'm sure you can load 30 x 3000w cheap amps (Boss, Pyramid, Power Acoustik) & still hit high numbers... But I guess i'm in the crowd of quality over quantity... I would prefer to spend a little more money on amplifier that puts out CLEAN power...not just noise... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
