Sniper Posted November 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 Boon, if you know anything about class D, when the amp is a certified CEA Class D, and this one is, it means its efficiency is above 90%, so take your text and shove it, bashing equipment is not the help I want. 1997 Pontiac Grand Am SE Broke stock Head Unit Stock speakers suck -if I get a job, it gets 2 SA 8s in a 2.5cube box (roughly 2 cube with the port and woofers in)- -oh, and a new HU and some speakers that dont suck. and possibly a new muffler and tint job (previous owners tint is smudging in the back, if you know how to get tint off a window without damaging the heating stuff, let me know!!!)- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonnylowkon Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 maybe that 200$ for the crap amp should've been spent on real 0g wire you wouldnt not believe the crap that passe as 0g these days. I had monster, tsunami, and "installation bay" 0g all next to eachother, the installation bay barely passes as 4g, and the tsunami was a good deal smaller than the monster. No wonder the monster costs 5$ a foot.... Do stuff right and dont cheap out, or dont spend the cash and keep it small. Whatever you do, just do it right. Dont push a 2500rms speaker with an amp i cant see doing 1200 watts all day ps, my 1200watt amp is fused at 160amps...might have cost a hundred and some more than yours, but atleast it can do what it's rated for, reliably, and cleanly, running cool. So it right the first time, you dont wanna be replacing stuff down the line. lmao JBL is crap IMO 250 amp mechman alt Sundown 100.4D Sundown 1500v2 now goin to the cruze Sundown ZV3 12d2 Sundown sa6.5cs X2 Kenwood X597 Trying something new 2011 Chevy Cruze X8 1500v2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it right the first time, you dont wanna be replacing stuff down the line. I guess you didnt know im 15 then, I dont have money to buy something like a T4K, and now that I look at it, this thing has a rating of 160, 4x30 equaling 120, with an internal "hot" fuse of 40, meaning its 160 total, a thermal fuse works like a circuit breaker in your house, it can turn off and on, if the overload is too much, it is bypassed and it blows the 30s, basically saying, since my electronics system is going to be 14.4, this equals 2710w with the efficiency of this amp being 85, if you dont believe me, research the chips used in the amp, in other words, its stable at 2200W @ 1ohm, so please all you haters, suck it. 1997 Pontiac Grand Am SE Broke stock Head Unit Stock speakers suck -if I get a job, it gets 2 SA 8s in a 2.5cube box (roughly 2 cube with the port and woofers in)- -oh, and a new HU and some speakers that dont suck. and possibly a new muffler and tint job (previous owners tint is smudging in the back, if you know how to get tint off a window without damaging the heating stuff, let me know!!!)- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sniper Posted November 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 Also, my stinger 0/1 is real wire... is yours real wire? and another thing, the wire I use on my room setup is Excalibur, some badass wire from the 80s and early 90s. (which is 8awg, more than enough for my 600W and 400W amps, which after reading into what they're fuse ratings is, the kenwood 600 is 720W, and the SoundStorm is 381W, both are being used for my higher range speakers, the mids and tweets, meaning I'll have 1001W for my highs ^^ 1997 Pontiac Grand Am SE Broke stock Head Unit Stock speakers suck -if I get a job, it gets 2 SA 8s in a 2.5cube box (roughly 2 cube with the port and woofers in)- -oh, and a new HU and some speakers that dont suck. and possibly a new muffler and tint job (previous owners tint is smudging in the back, if you know how to get tint off a window without damaging the heating stuff, let me know!!!)- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raytard Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 johnny, i used to agree with you "Junky But Loud" and whatnot, but these amps do what they say and do it well, for a reasonable price, i cant complain. That junky part is pretty evident when the rca's pull out lmao. Everyone and their grandmas has alpine or rockford, and I didnt know about sundown when i bought all that stuff. Not to mention its so darn tempting when something new comes out and the ups truck delivers a pallate of it to the shop, to try it out Build: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...hl=avalon+build monster/rockford/kicker/stinger cables, pioneer source, jbl highs/amps, kinetik/shuriken batts, iraggi alt, dei security, dc subs(atleast for now) Team DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sniper Posted November 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 now for more updates! I just got off the phone with wes while I was having fun messing with the kiddies (no homo) and we worked out an agreement, he has some extra resin, and has agreed that if I help him strip his car tommarow for his 09 build (he has 8 JL 12w1v2s on a single PA3000DB, holy fucking shit its loud, 150.7@38, not to mention its a wall, dunno what its tuned to) that he'll build me boxes for inside the wall for my Pyles and Tang band speakers, and he'll help me get the new tang band 4s in the dash. Meaning im probably gonna be pretty busy tommarow! 1997 Pontiac Grand Am SE Broke stock Head Unit Stock speakers suck -if I get a job, it gets 2 SA 8s in a 2.5cube box (roughly 2 cube with the port and woofers in)- -oh, and a new HU and some speakers that dont suck. and possibly a new muffler and tint job (previous owners tint is smudging in the back, if you know how to get tint off a window without damaging the heating stuff, let me know!!!)- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
