TZspeakersZac Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 Hey all, new to the forums here. I'm looking at some new amps for spring. Does anyone have personal experience with the Crescendo BC5500? It's guts look solid, seems to be a Korean board so I'm inclined to trust it. I suppose I'm asking if someone has clamped this, or something else in the BC series. If it is the BC 5500, what does it clamp at .5 ohm? (nominal wiring, don't really care what it rises to just need a general idea) Also, please do not try to sell me on some other amps. I am well aware of all of my options, thanks. Nah man, it's cuz of the bass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TZspeakersZac Posted December 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 Wow! So effectively does rated at 12.17! What do you run yours at, and how do they handle burps (if you burp them)? Edit: Impedance and voltage Nah man, it's cuz of the bass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChevyBoy95 Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 Have seen them in person, used 2 2ks in my truck. Great amps, will play daily at .5 with good electrical, and burp lower on good electrical, but there is a big risk jump from 1 to .5, and .5 to lower.

tacomaguy1 Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 Run mine at .35 daily Strong amps, not a single problem. Have had them down to 10v a few times lol Team Flex Issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TZspeakersZac Posted December 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 Alright, so you've run them too. Will they take 16v do you know? I assume so, but I've seen crazy amps (AQ20k, DC 10.0k) not like to see much over 14.4. I wouldn't be asking about these if I wasn't going to run them on solid electrical . Good to know that they'll burp lower, I plan to wire each to a .35 ohm nominal load (should rise to .85 unless something pops off). Nah man, it's cuz of the bass.
