24 Volt Amplifiers?

Nope, not really a market for them. Most applications that call for an amp installed in a 24v DC system would just use a standard 12v DC amp and a step down transformer.

I have seen prototype 24v DC amps but they never went to market.

who produced the prototypes?

and wouldnt there be significant loss in amperage using a step down.

im trying to avoid tapping the middle of 2 12 volt batts, as i dont want uneven current draw and equalizers seem to be only rated at like 150 amps or so, every thing is low amperage it seems....

is there step down or process you would recommend for this?

good call but their amp ratings are missing a "0" to be of use to me :P

i figured the z2 hv could do it but im guessing not because it doesnt say so on the DD website...

maybe i can get dave to make me some 24v stable amps... :diablo:

Z2HV is good to about 20v (18v + charging) but that's it.

If you put 28v to it (because they're unregulated) they will make too much voltage on the rails and probably blow all the rail caps.

Buy 1000 amps and I'm sure we can make you some ;)

not many cars can get me to pluggin my ears but this one.......damn. I mean the first minute is ok but that thing just really starts digging deeper and deeper in your earhole till you cant stand it no more. Seems like it does it with relative ease....16 12's on 8 amps.........gotta love it. :)
