ive been looking at new amps in the 3.5-7k range and found the lanzar 6000d, was just wondering if it uses a single set of power inputs, from my research a single run can only handle about ~300 amps, and this is not enough to make 6k. i dont think at least.

i see amps like the DC 5k with 2 sets of inputs then a bigger amp with less power input capability.

what gives?

Its a cheaper amp that relies more on current than amperage to attempt to make the actual output. DC, AB, AQ etc are designed a bit differently, and use dual input for that high of wattage.

How much are you looking to spend?

those opti amps are no joke though ive heard a pair on a pair of DC lvl 6s and they got DOWN holy hell it was the most violent system i have ever heard

Btw that was the first person. Ever banned by me while dropping a deuce. Feel privileged

They are good for their price, but they don't compare to many of the better quality amps out there.

ahh i see, that makes sense, i have no idea how amps work, was just curious.

and around 1000 would be the most i'd want to spend. the DC 5k is what ive been looking at mainly. but just found these lanzars.

even thinking about just getting another cheap hifonics and 1/2 ohm a pair, and spend the rest on more electrical... not sure though, dont wanna buy a new amp in a month after i melt one down.

current == amperage.

You're probably thinking "voltage" which actually affects any amp.. well, most.

Any time you have have a power wire next to your frame put some rubber hosing (or cut up an innertube) around it. The wire is bound to wiggle (due to driving or flex) and the casing will eventually wear through.

Thanks for the correction, but you knew what I meant.
