Tim Lam Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 i dont know too much about orion amps. but i've seen they're subs and they're pretty beast. like the Orion HCCA122! monsters of a sub. but can't let that be the only indicator of it being a good sub. because a company can make a good product doesnt mean all of them are good. (i.e. Hifonics=decent amps, but their subs are shit) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WillistonAudioLabs Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 (edited) It never ceases to amaze me how the ratings on these old school amps are misstated. It is true Orion rated it at 250w/ch at 4 ohms and 1000w/ bridged at 4 ohms, however this amp has basically the same amp internals as the GS500, which was tested by Car Audio & Electronics back in 1991 and it did "only" around 800w bridged at 4 ohms (continuous power). I have a trio of Orion's: XTR-2250, 2100 HCCA and Concept 97.3 I'm planning on bench testing for continuous power here in the near future. I've been told by some Orion experts to not expect over 800w from any of them, no matter what they are rated. Sounds like an interesting shootout? Stay tuned...
