06RTCharger Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 Anyone have any personal experience with this brand? Im looking at the Z-400.2LX. The LX seems to be there "SQ" line up. But also the ZX-500.2 looks like it would work perfect for me, lil more power than the LX. Either one i would be running bridged. At 8ohm, one amp per sub. That is if they are able to do 8ohm bridged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
06RTCharger Posted February 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 Not lookin good. Some reviews sayin some certain series got issues and burn up and all kinds of BS. But then some series work perfect and sound amazing. Some amps being made in china, some in korea. Whys this caraudio shit gotta be so complicating lol. I find something that looks real good then research more and start seeing bad reviews. anyone here used these amps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMonolith2001 Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 I have a Zapco ZX500.2 and it is by far my favorite amp. It's what finally got me to give up using old school gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im planning on using the Z400.2LX, but i was strongly considering the ZX500.2 because of the extra output. Id be using them bridged with subs wired to 8ohm. What are u powering with ur 500.2?

I was wondering if the ratings are rms or peak, im assuming rms because they are a well established brand but you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The atrendusa site is the one i'd use, its their authorized usa online dealer. i guess thats where some of those bad reviews were coming from lol, buying knockoffs or poor installs.

oldsoundguy Posted March 12, 2017 Report Share Posted March 12, 2017 I am interested in the Zapco 150.6 lx amp. Damn expensive but I like the fact it doesn't have crossovers and such that could fail. I do all my crossovers on my HU. I am going to continue to research it. 80prs Arc Audio Xdi 1200.6 (using active crossovers) Freaking awesome amplifier Incriminator IA 10.1 Focal PS 130v 5.25 (doors) 4" Faital pro Neo (kick panels) 3" Faital pro Neo and focal tweets( dash) DC Audio level 3 12" custom box designed by joex built by me AGM front, XS 750SE batteries rear DC 180 alt 99 Toyota Tacoma extra cab http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/179476-my-small-build-turned-into-the-ongoing-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you find any bad stuff about those LX series, let me know. The two things I don't like is one there is no bass knob if you were going to bridge 5-6 for a sub, and the freaking price. Otherwise I really want an amplifier without all the crossover crap on them. I don't need it because I use my head unit for that. 80prs Arc Audio Xdi 1200.6 (using active crossovers) Freaking awesome amplifier Incriminator IA 10.1 Focal PS 130v 5.25 (doors) 4" Faital pro Neo (kick panels) 3" Faital pro Neo and focal tweets( dash) DC Audio level 3 12" custom box designed by joex built by me AGM front, XS 750SE batteries rear DC 180 alt 99 Toyota Tacoma extra cab http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/179476-my-small-build-turned-into-the-ongoing-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
