TaylorFade Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 It's called 8.0 for a reason. Because that's where I would "certify" it with the way that I test and on the electrical that I would use it on. It's not just a made up nomenclature for marketing. This is 8,000w clean at 1 ohm resistive and at very close to rated voltage. It just happens to do more if you have enough juice to support 1,000+A of draw and keep it over 12.8v. Personally... I like to know what amps do at 12v battery voltages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slinky Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 I have mixed feelings about this. On one hand, it seems like a stout mother fucking amp and I can dig that. On the other hand, if an amp does 10k at 12v and you market it at 8k, you are lying to your customers which is just as bad as if the amp did 6k and you said it did 8k. Customers use the rated specs when determining which equipment to use. When the amp puts out an extra 2k than it is rated for, you have to take that into consideration when desiging your enclosure and choosing your subs. I would rather see them market this as a 10k amp if it does 10k at 12v.

MrSkippyJ Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 I wish I knew more about how amps worked so all of this would make sense. My T1500.1 is a 1500 watt amp that does more than 1500, everyone is OK with that. This is an 8K that does more than 8K but it's not OK. I know I am missing something but I don't know what it is, someone help me understand what I am missing.

Personally I don't see it being as much of a problem at such low power levels, but I don't think it's OK in that situation either. Amps should be rated as they are. The whole 'underrated' bandwagon is fucking annoying.

Ninja_v1.0 Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 the interwebs has destroyed us all.. everybody is a expert on all matters of car audio.. most people are commenting on these amps and will never ever buy a 8k let alone a 10k amp so why are they even making comments? who cares what amp it is.. who cares how much power it does.. if you wanna run it.. do it.. if not.. then the hell with it because chances are you were not going to buy it anyway on that note i will walk away because what the hell do i know.. im just a nobody When your at the top everyone is coming for you, friends, family, haters and even those who don't know you.. my advice..

MrSkippyJ Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 ^^ I'm with you but I just wanted to figure out what seemed to be a double standard to me.

audiofanati Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 I got my preorder in. Im aware what it puts out and will use every bit of it regardless whats its rated at. Andrew is an awesome guy and has been very generous with questions and past purchases "aa7500". And yeah it maybe be a "10k" amp but itll STILL be cheaper at regular price than other 10k's. And whoever said it puts out alittle over 10k is wrong. It was stated to expect 12.5-13k at 14.4volts...I believe you would be getting well your moneys worth so im not quite understanding some of you guys problem with that ...carry on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
