hispls Posted October 31, 2016 Report Share Posted October 31, 2016 Their 7K is on sale right now for super cheap, what's the word on these? Anybody using them? Any real testing done yet? Google reveals almost nothing about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REMT15 Posted October 31, 2016 Report Share Posted October 31, 2016 I wouldn't buy it until I seen it on the dyno. The 2200 doesn't do close to rated power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Phillips Posted November 1, 2016 Report Share Posted November 1, 2016 I wouldn't buy it until I seen it on the dyno. The 2200 doesn't do close to rated power. That's really good advice. The least you can do is wait until cyber monday. It's not like SoundQubed just won't have a sale. - 2009 Toyota Matrix Base - - iPad 64GB - - miniDSP 2x4 HD - - PPI Art a200.2 - - SoundQubed SQ-2200.2 x 2 - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles Phillips Posted November 1, 2016 Report Share Posted November 1, 2016 I looked around and someone mentioned that they rate their amps at clipping instead of before distortion or even at 1% distortion. Just a rumor though, and I sent a message to SQ to update the page and they've generally been great about that kind of thing. - 2009 Toyota Matrix Base - - iPad 64GB - - miniDSP 2x4 HD - - PPI Art a200.2 - - SoundQubed SQ-2200.2 x 2 - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Phillips Posted November 2, 2016 Report Share Posted November 2, 2016 I got an email back that says the following: The numbers are at 1% THD. It is a 7500W amp at 14.4v at 1% and 8k+ at 10%. We saw it at 15% on 16v do 11k. So there you have it, it makes at least 7500W at 14.4v, so probably 7000 or so on 13.8v. - 2009 Toyota Matrix Base - - iPad 64GB - - miniDSP 2x4 HD - - PPI Art a200.2 - - SoundQubed SQ-2200.2 x 2 - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hispls Posted November 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2016 I looked around and someone mentioned that they rate their amps at clipping instead of before distortion or even at 1% distortion. Just a rumor though, and I sent a message to SQ to update the page and they've generally been great about that kind of thing. The 3500 is a beast though. I wouldn't buy it until I seen it on the dyno. The 2200 doesn't do close to rated power. Still though, even if it's only a 6500 for 1000$. That's MSRP or less than of many other companies' 5K amps.... really even if it's only a beefy 5K that's not a bad price. I'm more interested in reliability than output, Brazil gives me far more watt:dollar ratio if clamp numbers are my only goal (though I haven't ruled out Brazil). Besides it's not like Qubed is a company that over-rates by double or anything so if it's short of rated it likely won't be by too big a margin. Anybody ever had to deal with their customer service or warranty? I'm half tempted to take a gamble on a couple but don't want to be stuck with something like RD 3250V2, Diablo, The Fix, or those notoriously flammable CT 7Ks.

Was it the Q1-2200.2 or the earlier version? - 2009 Toyota Matrix Base - - iPad 64GB - - miniDSP 2x4 HD - - PPI Art a200.2 - - SoundQubed SQ-2200.2 x 2 - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahmed Johnson Posted December 3, 2016 Report Share Posted December 3, 2016 I never dealt with their warranty or anything but I did own the 2200's and they were great. I had some hdc3's and they were good too. After I purchased all that I never had a problem so I didn't have to deal with them again so I wouldn't know how their customer service was Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
