RooTxBeeR Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 People need to realize, SQ isn't defined by the class of the amplifier. It has to do a lot with the THD in what is being reproduced. Any Class D Amp with a .01% THD will sound better than any Class A/B with .1% THD, as the same for the opposite. Also to someone who posted that Car build of the "infinity G35" why is it that the only pic in there with a car logo on it, says nissan....

Omega5002 Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 You can't really rely on Thd cause every company measures it differently, and the DD-1 makes sure you don't have 1% thd anyways. 2003 Kia Sorento Team Subsonic LowsTeam Bassin' on a Budget2016 Rebuild Under Construction Best score: 150.2 at 40hz (3k, 2 Custom HDC3 15's) Usaci style(door open, in the kick) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassface Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 thd, frequency response, dampening factor, SnR, are all factors in sq amps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omega5002 Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 also id like to point out that the MB Quart Onyx amp sucks balls sure some expensive class Ds will have great sound but cheap ones will still be cheap The MB Quart amps are crap in general, after using the DD-1 on my FX1.600, came to realize that there's no way it produces even close to 600 watts of clean power, oh well, gonna save up and get better amps. 2003 Kia Sorento Team Subsonic LowsTeam Bassin' on a Budget2016 Rebuild Under Construction Best score: 150.2 at 40hz (3k, 2 Custom HDC3 15's) Usaci style(door open, in the kick) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IH8PunkRok Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 Where did throwing MB Quart under the bus have to do with Class D and SQ? because i know the trend of things eventually this thread will come to a conclusion that class D amps really arent that bad for SQ BUT an underlying point of this is that these amps usually cost a pretty penny i can see some people reading this thread that will make the conclusion that all class Ds are just as good if not better than ab amps. which will start a trend of people buying cheap class d amps and calling it SQ kind of similar to how 4th and 6th orders blew up within the last few years -Matt2005 Dodge Magnum RTJVC KD-AVX1 2 PPI S580.2 Obsidian Audio ST1 Horn Tweeters PRV 8MB450s Audio Legion 3500.1D 2 RE MT 18s 360 ah LiFePO4 BatterySHCA 2/0 155.2 @ 29 hzKicker CVR 15's buildDD 3512e buildMini T-Line Build(6) 8s BuildNightshade 15s Wall BuildMagnum AB XFL 12s BuildNewest Magnum Build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSkippyJ Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 but cheap A/B amps sound like shit too. D amps are not alone in that regard.
