Crescendo Anything bad to say?

Recommended Posts

I have been shopping for amps for over a month now. I find one I like and the more I search the more things I find to question.

I came across the crescendo symphony S1500.1

Amazing from what I can tell. And the only bad thing I can find about it is that there is no clipping light :shrug:

Was wondering if anyone here had run one, or had heard anything bad about them. I cant really find a reason not to grab one at this point.

Any input welcome.

These are fairly new supper small, no clipping light no problem many amps dont come with this if you set your gain right it will be fine. I think someone put this one on the smd amp dyno and did somewhere around 1700 watts rms. Defenitly a good brand

The S1500.1 really surprised me when I first got my hands on it. It dynoed out over 1700w at 1 ohm. I was skeptical about the result, so I ran it 4 more times and got within a few watts every single time. It is a very solid amp for sure. If you have any questions, please send me a message, I have them in stock now ready to ship as well.

Who cares about a clip light? I've never had one, never needed one, never felt like I was missing out

I am not a fan of the clip lights at all, or stock bass knobs in general for that matter. Too many of the clip light just arent accurate. Tune the amp properly with a DD1/DD1+ and dont listen to music that has been altered by an unknown source that could be clipped to shit.

Id feel comfortable running Crescendo amps. I was a little skeptical at first for my reasons.. but they seem to perform.

Im happy they don't have a clip light.. It saves me money indirectly. If it had one, id run out and buy a PAC LC-1.
