OrionStang Posted November 23, 2009 Report Share Posted November 23, 2009 So i'm looking at these refurbs at db-r.com, and I got this idea maybe I should get one and trade or sell my kicker 2500. I know my sub can take it, but will a refurb last very long? I just want opinions, getting close to starting my install and got to finalize some decisions.

Since its coming from DB-r, you shouldnt have much to worry about at all. They work like a champ, from what I hear . He fixes plenty of amps, and they come back working perfect. Remeber 90% of the time its never the amp, only the installers idiotic stupidity Quote 2003 CHEVY TRAILBLAZER AKA The Batmobile Pioneer 6000UB Sundown SAZ-3000D 2 Audio Q HDC3's 40' of 1/0 Gauge 2 Big Rear Batteries A 38 HZ Box KICK ASS!

Mikesmith0890 Posted November 23, 2009 Report Share Posted November 23, 2009 Db-r is jacobs authorized repair center. If you trust sundown amps and Jacob, then trust that Jacob picked a very very good place for his amp repairs Quote AlphaDamp Sound Deadening CDL Mat - The best Vibration Damper Ever!

OrionStang Posted November 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2009 Well I just realized the Sundown makes max power @ 1 ohm. I've got a dual 4 sub, can't get a 1ohm load. Thats what I get for getting too excited LOL. Quote SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E a r t h Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 then you need 1 more sub dont ya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boon Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 db-r.com refurbs would be pretty much as tough if not stronger than factory. Unless the board got real messed up when the amp died but I doubt he would even refurb them if that was the case. Quote 10.x volts fo' life!

brewer_brewer Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 don't forget that jacob also accepts amps as "credit" towards any of his new brand new amps you could get a little bit of money off of the price of a BNIB 3000D from your kicker 2500 DB-R is good as new also though.

kentb Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 (edited) just stick with your amp if will only run the sundown @ 2ohms... but if you plan to change subs later on, then go for it. i have first hand experience with a 3000d refurb from db-r and they are really good amps, my customer is still using it till this day.
