[email protected] Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 i thought reducers bottlenecked the current when its reduced to 4 gauge well, but you forget to take in account that in the manual it isn't CEA compliant, in any part of its construction, good budget build amp, but if its not at least CEA-2006 Compliant it dosent have to make its listed RMS power, but id say 1700rms with a low efficiency rating would be appropriate, but probably closer to 2K it pushed a btl nicely on youtube, but im not sure if, or how much the gain was cranked, but still its a Decend amp for its price its like 4Cents per Max Power Watt & 7Cents per RMS Watt i once read somewhere to be a legit Amp you "Need" to pay around 75Cents per RMS watt which like 1000RMS is 750 bucks but im not sure how Legit that is, just in the near future make sure its CEA compliant, because they get paid to essecintally make sure companies make good uniform products, and the CEA seal tells us there power ratings and products are worth investing time money and effort, and are reliable enough to trust. 2001 Bravada Alpine Cda-9886 MTX TX6001 Comps Dual FI BL 18's Fully Loaded Dual Hifonics Bxi 2608D 12Cubes Ported @ 33hz 2/0 Run Welding Wire Stock Batt And Garbage Stock Alt (New Alt in Nov) 148.3 TL Sealed Up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flint_810 Posted June 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 if i trimm the 1/0awg wire down so it can fit in the terminals would that defeat the purpose of having 1/0awg wire due to my amp only accepts 4awg wire?

CaptainzPlanetz Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 Trimming the wire down/using reducers are better that using 4 guage, since even though you cut the strand count where the connection is, the distance in which the wire is smaller than the rest of the run, is much smaller so the amp still gets improved flow. Why do you think SoundDigital/Stetsom can get away with using 2 Postitive and 2 Ground Imputs on there 10-16K amps.....because the runs leading up to the amps are usually like a foot from the battery bank, some have made extra imputs, but dont see much improvement past 3 runs to both the +/-. ¿ǝɯɐƃ ǝɥʇ Trolls never learn............ All BS aside, If I see one more comment in here that is NOT about the pre-sale, I will start the vacations. And that includes the trolls feeding the trolls.

BanginOnABudget Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 i was gonna buy one to run my 2 8" kicker comps (coolface.jpg) im taking out my passenger seat, battery is disconnected, going to unwire and take out the three amps, take out the 70+ lb box, then the platform so i can crimp 1 wire. Almost as bad as those fegs that put those horns in their grills and roll down the street distorting the block.... 1990 Jeep Cherokee 2 Dr. Big-3 in 0g on Stock Alt. Pioneer 6.5" and 5.25"s temp. until i can afford the new crescendos. Pioneer 6000ub Reciever NO amps at the moment. SA-15 on 1kw coming soon. MSG Me for a free enclosure design!! Flared port kits coming soon!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronPope Posted August 1, 2014 Report Share Posted August 1, 2014 I think with brands like PA and Audiopipe and the like... the only difference is reliability and clean power. Top rated amps put out cleaner power and clip less than a PA would.. probally last longer. but if a PA BAMF is wired clean and is fed good clean power and the gains are set to clean levels... you will get plenty power out of them and bang. You just cant drive them to the hilt like you can a Sundown or a DC amp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
