Who Builds All The Amps?


mr.p

Recommended Posts

Im just wondering who manufactures what amps? i know zenon and its subsidiaries make amps for a few companies, who else is out there?

i know mmats is made here in the us, in house. Who else is?

Who does victoria international audio and video make amps for? or does anyone use them? Or are they even their own entity?

what about in the u.s. is there a major amp builder here?

Just wondering why noone seems to be able to compete with zenon. I know there has to be some u.s. based amp buildhouses that can compete on a price and quality scheme of things?

I just cant believe that you can build amps in korea, ship them to the u.s. and it be cost effective, its pretty crazy! then again we outsource EVERYTHING here so who knows. Whats your thoughts?

outsourcing is the american way now.

there isnt anybody that can come close to the qnty for the price.

and the zenon board imo isnt the greatest..

zenon is like a fad, everyone loves them becasue they can do what needed at a cheap cost for the most part.

theres some chinese companies who are decent and youd be pretty surprised at some of the real big names whos amps are outsourced to "no name" buildhouses

Why waste your time with this tool? His system sucks, that's all there really is to it. My toilet puts out more low end and flex than that thing!

I'd like to know who builds us amps boards... I have yet to find another manufacture using the same board with their latest and greatest... I sat in a RE extended cab truck that had a blow through and he said he's done a 153 off of 4 se 12's and 3000 rms this past weekend too... After listening to a 40hz test tone in it I wouldn't doubt it was a 153 either ... I'm straight spoiled
