need info on DD z1

[jeffrm]

I recently bought a DD z1 and id like to know more about it. I know they are rated at 3k @ 12.6 & 5k @ 14.4, but id like to know more. If anyone has had one let me know how you liked it or didn't like it.

Well that's not making me feel too good, now.

I've had several with no issues. VERY underrated, strong, but do tend to get warm pretty quick regardless of what it's wired at. When I was using one daily in my Ranger it actually got hotter at 2 ohm than it did at .5 which was odd to me. The last one I sold went to a local guy who clamped just shy of 3200 @ 1.7 and 10.x volts.

I plan on wiring at 1ohm, and id like to get a plexi back made with fans, just to be sure. Im hoping it'll do good pushing 4 OA 15s.

I was doing 154's with 4 OA 15's in a wall on a Z1 at .5 in my Ranger

If I can break a 50, and still be daily, ill be fine.
