MASTER T KILLA Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 So I'm looking to get a BC 5500 possibly for two Orion HCCAs but a local dealer near me (not a crescendo dealer) has two used crescendo amps a BC 5500 which has been sent back for vibration damage 3 different times he has another one that's not listed on the crescendo site I don't think because it's older it's gone back once for the same issue. My question is are they prone to this issue? I've never seen one in person other then in his display case to determine how often this occurs but I really want this amp.

hdorre Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 The general consensus is that they're solid amps. Like any product, you're going to have someone who has issues.. His DEFINITELY seem excessive. Do you know by any change whether or not his amps are mounted to the enclosure? If they are, many amps will have problems.

MASTER T KILLA Posted March 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 I was thinking the previous owner had it mounted to a box or upside down or something when he said why he was only selling it for $750 it's probably been damaged beyond repair so I'm going to just buy one new. 2003 Mercury Grand Marquis LS (CVB 25th Chapter) Alpine Head Unit stock 6x9's Powerbass ASA 1500.1Dx FC 1200 krank-it up battery HC 800 Kinetik battery Orion HCCA 12.4 in slot ported box wired down to 2 ohms Audiopipe 1/0 gauge wire Rockford fosgate ring terminals Subscribe to the Youtube page http://www.youtube.com/user/TManMusicPage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karkov Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 They are solid amps but yea, I concur with others thoughts.
