ty_houston Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 (edited) I have a regular z2, they make a z2lv(low voltage) and a z2hv(high voltage). They deff do more than rated power so long as they enuff juice. For 12 volt applications I would recommend the z2lv or the z1a. The z2lv makes around 8000 watts on 14.4 volts. The regular z2 and the z2hv need 17 plus volts to make that kind of power. I run my z2 @ 1.7 ohms and it makes a hair under 5000 watts on a 12volt system(mine charges @15.4 volts with mla mod)...strong..strong amps.

ty_houston Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 I like there subs but for some reason all I ever see is people having to get there DD amps repaired all the time..... Flame away. The main reason that they break is from vibration from being mounted on the speaker box. The first gen z1 was notorious for that. The boards where breaking from vibration. The z2 and the z1a are a bit stiffer but I still would not mount one against the sub enclosure box. Not much info on the new line of dd amps(z2lv, z2hv). I would assume that Digital Designs improved upon the progress that they made with the z1a and the z2...just my 2 cents!

creyc Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 Not to mention you see TONS of DD amps in the street competition scenes where guys push them to their limits (and often beyond) I'm not sure if there's any other company I can think of which is more popular in the competition scene..
