hey So ive been in the market for a new amp and ive recently saw this 6000watt power acoustik amp for fairly cheap Just wondering if its any good?

http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_39761_Power-Acoustik-D1-6000D.html

I also saw a few 5500watt power acoustic amps that have been manufacturer refurbed but then it scares me because its like why have so many of these power acoustik amps been refurbed??

Either way im in need of an amp for 4 audiobahn 15's the problem is 2 of the 4 15's are discontinued subs that are rated 650rms 1300watt max while the other 2 are new and are only 500rms 1000max.

Would i need to have a two channel amp so i could run the 2 kinds of subs?

I was thinking pair up the old 15's wire them down to 2ohm and run to one channel

Then pair up the new 15's and wire them up to the other channel

Or would it be safe to wire all subs down to 1ohm and have all 4 on 1 channel?

Thanks everyone. im sorry im such a noob and ask dumb questions all the time i would just really like to be loud!!!!!

If my 4 mismatched 15's are a dumb idea its fine i will sell them and possible buy the power acoustic mofo 15's http://www.poweracoustik.com/pa2011/subs-MOFO-152X.html

Thanks again!!

Just stay away from power acoustics in general, that amp will Put nowhere near 6000 watts of power out, their products are majority over rated and do nowhere near rated, also you do not want to mismatch a bunch of subs

That amp is so overrated it's not even funny, just saying, and I would get a mono block, it'll distribute power equally throughout all the subwoofers.

dont get power acoustik do you really think you can get 6000 watts for 270 dollars? lol as for subs some sundown sa 15s would be nice with a sundown 3500 or a aq 3500

Yeah, Power Acoustik is on the same level as Pyle, Pyramid, entry lv Planet Audio, and maybe even as bad as Boss.

Stay a way from either of them, you're better off with a maxxsonics(Hifonics, MB Quart, Autotek, Crunch) product if you want a good price, though the entry level may not do rated, they do better than the above brands.

id never buy anything from power acoustik or any of their sister companies.it says that 6000w watts is its max power(which it would never make unless a bolt of lightning hit it)and rms is 3500w at 1ohm which i probably an inflated number

Posted

And don't mismatch subwoofers, even in the same brand, it's gonna sound weird, just stick with the 2 most powerful ones, and buy a high quality amp for them, never go cheap on the amp because the amp is base of everything when it comes to sound quality, and $269 will probably get you a nice amp for the 2 650 rms 15's, though obviously won't be 6000 watts lol, but to even run 6000 watts or even 3500 watts, you would need to upgrade your car's electrical system.

My friend has a crunch amp on his rockford t1 and it sounds shitty :( so i really didnt want to go this route.

As for subs all 4 are audiobahn just 2 of them are rated with a 150rms more than the the other 2.

If i had the money trust me id get sundown but its wayyyy to expensive for me at the moment :(

Im looking to spend 200- 350 on an amp and ive got 250 into my subs. but i didnt know if i should stick with the 4 15's or step up and get 2 power acoustik mofo 15's because the rms of the mofo's are more thank the tottal of all 4 subs i have now. just less cone area.
