n8ball2013 Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 Ok guys i know you remember the topic about the hk4000d turnon current draw. Well I knew that someone was full of shit so I took it upon myself to email tech support and see what they had to say about it. here is the reply: The turn on lead will use less than 1 amp! The amp draw for the amplifier is up to 240 - 260 amps so we recommend using a 300 amp inline fuse at the battery. -----Original Message----- From: [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, October 07, 2008 8:21 PM To: Eyad Aboabdo; Dan Tech Support Subject: Ask a Question SourceURL = http://www.maaudio.com/category.jhtm?cid=8 first name = last name = email = Zip = 12550 Country = united states Product = MA audio hk4000d Question = Just wondering about the current draw from this amplifier. specifically the current needed to turn it on by way of the remote lead. I had heard from a source it required 40 amps of current to just turn on. This seems extremely high to me and did not seem right. thank you for your time Man doesnt that sound better. I guess if you had forty of them it might take 40 amps.

n8ball2013 Posted October 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 yeah I know this will get locked i just wanted the proof to be out there that the guy had no clue. Alot of misinformation gets thrown out there and it sucks to think that someone who is just getting into our hobby could be steered wrong by someone that they think knows what the hell they are talking about. its bad mojo on all of us. And you know the most popular kind of amp "modding" is very simple. usually removing the protection circuit or something very similar. not replacing power supplies or caps or fets etc etc etc. THERE IS NO BUILD LOG! 1998 Chevy Silverado ext cab Alpine CDA-9887 4 Team Fi 15s 2 Ampere Audio TFE 8.0 2 Ampere Audio 150.4 3 Digital Designs CS6.5 component sets Dual Mechman 370XP Elite alternators inbound! 8 XS Power d3400 6 XS power d680 Second Skin Stinger Tsunami Wiring Sky High A Real Voltmeter not a piece of shit stinger.
