  1. 1. Running on 4 Optidrive 1232D Dual 2 ohm

      16

I think that the APs will sound as loud as the 6000D, but you would be more pleased owning with the OPTI.

Opti 6000d is the same as the soundstream xxx10000, but with a regulated power supply. The Soundstream will do more power than the opti at higher voltages.

I was a little skeptical getting the new opti 4 channel, and it's done me real well. I couldn't be happier with it.

One pro would be space - the Opti will use up less space, and one less wire run than the AP amps.

i haven't tried any of those two but if both of them are close, might as well go with the cheaper one!

I thought the Lanzar would have been an Asian made piece, but have my doughts now. If it is a Soundstream knockoff................the Q is Why would you want a Fith generation audiobahn Asian made amp(audiopipe).

Well, for starters, did you know Audiobahn has an Opti 4000d / xxx6500d clone? Same board, same goodies.

Second, the Audiopipe amp in question does put out some good power, and very reasonably priced.

They are both made overseas btw, the Lanzar and the AP.

3500/5.1 = 686.27

686.27/5.1 = 134.56

I SERIOUSLY question his testing methodology.

134.56vrms across the sub = 190v rail to rail for a start

Also 134.56vrms would imply it does more like 12kw @ 1 ohm. I call fail on those test scores. Massive fail.

Opti 6000d is the same as the soundstream xxx10000, but with a regulated power supply. The Soundstream will do more power than the opti at higher voltages.

Erm, if you grab board pics... wanna point out where the regulation is? Cos I don't see it... anywhere... regulating ~1000A doesn't just happen without an enormous pile of componentry to do it for you.
