Dan2427 Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 So why isn't every other company having problem with leads? Cuz most here use a Korean board of some sort on sundown, DC, IA and other companies of the like. Im not nut hugging any brand and I could see why None of the companies I listed would say not to use Korean amps since they sell them. But I never had a problem with my DC leads or crossfire leads. And the DCs coils kept going out from user error all 4 times. -15db cuz I wasn't sure what track to use, then too much power, too big of a box, and DC said the 4th time was my fault but I won't list what happened there. Anyway if there has been lead failure of other brands I haven't heard of it nearly as much? 2003 GMC Yukon Denali Alpine CDA 117 Redoing Mids/Highs 4 Runs of 1/0 Knukonceptz 2+, 2- 4 Deka 9A31's in back (Stock underhood) 250 amp Alt.

To my understanding it's not due to mechanical limits it's due to the way the frequencies are filtered. You gotta remember these Korean amps come from an assembly line. I think Korean amps are the shit for the money. Hell that doesn't stop me from wanting to run some big power amps, just makes me aware of what can happen.

Jessica Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 I'm running Koreans. And skars on top of that. I've soft clipped too. No issues even over powering my Sa's in a slightly too big box. Not sure about the filtering. Guess a 40k signal to a sub would be bad and it must be coming from the output stage cause the lpf would catch it otherwise. Is this something that is even a factor in low power rigs like mine?

SnowDrifter Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 What I want to know, is why are the tinsel leads considered the weak point here? Why not the coil? ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karkov Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 So in theory FI subs are "better" now? I was thinking of going FI Team subs in Spring but now I don't know. Too early to tell. I can tell ya one thing, I ain't selling the amps I already got. Oh and is there anyway to filter said frequencies? 2007 Chevy Tahoe (SOLD) 12 ~ FI Audio X series 10" w/BP option 2 ~ DC Audio 5.0K @0.67 3 ~ DC Audio 5.0K @1.0 2 ~ PPI 3 way sets (not installed yet) 1 ~ RF T400-4, 1 ~ RF T600-2, 1 ~ RF T600-4 4 ~ CT Sounds 5.25" Strato comps (rear fill only) 1 ~ XS Power D4800 1 ~ XS Power D3400 8 ~ XS Power XP3000 160 stock alt, Mechman 370 Elite, 185 DC Power 320+ Sq.
