RAM5493 Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 Im sure true audiophiles will pay for a service like this but I know it is super time consuming for you and the average joe wouldn't pay what your valuable time is worth. maybe if you do it enough you will get it down to a science and find good prices on the parts you need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEvil Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 Not really cost effective on anything but your own personal amps. Quote MickyMcD - "Capable of making some serious trouser flapping volumes at where's-my-testicles frequencies, the Servo-Drives used to be fairly jaw dropping..." 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. Hammerdown... 1% no links to outside websites, business related FB/YT pages allowed.

siucsaluki11 Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 got any links on where you learned how to do what you're doing? Ive wanted to tinker with amps for a while. My buddy has an old RF1000.1 that made 1k at 2 ohms, something was wrong with it, not sure what exactly, but i wanted to tear it apart and play with it. Also, i had a cheap kenwood die on me recently, since its dead, and past warranty, I'm not afraid of fucking with it, but id like to know what I'm doing....at least a little bit.

HarrisonGrayLetchworth Posted July 14, 2012 Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 I think the market would be for broken amps. Not looking to fancy up a good one. I mean if you can get fried amps for cheap, fix them up and then add a special touch you could have a good selling point.

Zapanater Posted July 14, 2012 Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 I'd take an interest. I run amps built in 1999. They're fully functioning, but I guarantee custom touches to them with modern components would be an improvement. They run VERY hot, so the stuff is gonna wear out eventually otherwise.

Your 100HC gets hot? You can run those at .25 ohms on the right electrical doing burps for 4-6kW! It gets hot daily? Sounds like it could be the power supply or cooling.

MrSkippyJ Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 Might have people that are hesitant to run modded amps and compete. Could be restrictions against it though I don't know really Quote F150: Stock 2019 Harley Road Glide: Amp: TM400Xad - 4 channel 400 watt Processor: DSR1 Fairing (Front) 6.5s -MMats PA601cx Lid (Rear) 6x9s - TMS69 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlebuck1919 Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 i can get a little old kenwood amp from a guy i work with (powers on but no output) i think would be nice for a little starter system for a friend of mine or for my gf or something depending on prices i might be interested in getting it and having u fix it up assuming u can make it work Quote Feedback Thread: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/152368-littlebuck1919s-feedback/#entry2177586 i think you'd stick your dick in a blender if it told you it was 40 wtih two kids your age. lol 6/18/82 - 4/17/12 R.I.P. to my sister Shana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are quite stable at .25 ohms, but they do get hot. It's just a very good heatsink. It isn't ridiculously hot, and it has never gone into thermal protection. I mean, if I play at "low" volume it barely heats up. If I crank it, it starts puttin out some BTUs haha. Quote 2015 Subaru Outback. That is all, I refuse to touch it.
