jbondox Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 I seen this before, phoenix gold, american bass, etc... This is the same amp that the Asians are making and selling to everyone. What i find funny is the post by AQ that they have been working on it for a year... I wonder if they were just talking email... It is sad that the industry came to this, imagine if ford, chevy, kia, toyota, infinity all tried to market the same car, just a different name/badge it would come down to who is the cheapest selling it. When I get a break later this week I will look at who is making the amp... bet I can find it cheaper And I do not mind screwing over the warehouse box shufflers that they call themselves a manufacturer... If I only had more time in the day... SMD SuperSeller VerifiedJbondoXJames Shields Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raytard Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 car companies did do it too, remember the whole dsm thing? eagle talon/mitsu eclipse/plymouth laser? ford taurus and mercury sable? chevy blazer and gmc jimmy? each company does something a little different, whether its pricing, aesthetics, or slightly different parts, and thats why a dozen different companies can start off with the same board and end with different results/reliability/prices Build: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...hl=avalon+build monster/rockford/kicker/stinger cables, pioneer source, jbl highs/amps, kinetik/shuriken batts, iraggi alt, dei security, dc subs(atleast for now) Team DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricR Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 Originally Posted by Audioque Pricing is hoped to be under 2k. We still have a lot of testing before I make a decision on whether or not to bring out the amp. All of our amps are proven for quality and reliability and I am not about to bring this amp out before I am sure of the quality and reliability. While the board on this amp may look similiar to others I can assure you this amp is not the same as those on the market today. We have been working with our buildhouse on this amp for some time now and they are quite excited about it. It is the strongest amp they have ever made, and they make some big ones, but they share the same thoughts I have and that is to take the time to do it right. I have given them an open checkbook and the time to test. If it does what we think it will do I will bring it out; if it doesn't I will not, it's simple as that. i was thinking leave the 12 sitting in the box in the hole and duck tape from the bottom of the sub to the bottom of the baffle so the sub doesnt free air. would that work?

Boon Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 its not zenon 3S driver board, vertical MOSFETs with those stupid spring-clips and made in South Korea, if it's not a Zenon it's a very convincing clone of one. That thing SCREAMS Zenon to me. 10.x volts fo' life! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricR Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 you very well could be right but I don't see why DJ would lie about something that Seems so obvious. i was thinking leave the 12 sitting in the box in the hole and duck tape from the bottom of the sub to the bottom of the baffle so the sub doesnt free air. would that work?
