EricR Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 nothing wrong with the ap amps. yes there not sundown amps or other high dollar amps but they do very good for what they are. go look at any thread about ap amps and ericr is in there talkin shit about something he knows nothing about cuz he NEVER ran one. yes they are not the cleanest power but they push out good power with decent voltage. not everybody has money like ericr to spend on audio stuff so we settle for what we can get and my choice was the 1500d and i have no issues out of it and i love it. if its in your price range then get it. also post a link to the 1000d's cuz the 1500 and 3000 ap amps have been tested with good results idk about the 1000 Keep my name out your mouth boy. You don't know me. 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?

Team_DC-Derrick Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 I think the reason he brought your name up is, in every thread where something you dont like is, you spout off about sundown, even if sundown is double the price of what they are asking about... NOT everyone has $ to spend 600$ on 1 3000 watt amp... but ill say this, Soundigital and stetsom > sundown, since everyone has a hard on for sundown... yep i said it... edit yes we know audiopipe is cheap yes we know sundown is expensive yes we know audiopipe doesnt use the best parts in the world, but not the worst either... yes we know sundown uses almost the best parts available... IT IS NOT THAT HARD TO FIGURE OUT so unless you can post the amp for the same power, in the pricerange the OP says... dont post dump... its not that hard.. we know you all hate fucking audiopipe... you dont have to tell us how much better sundown is The DC Integra 3 18s to 6 15 build log Team_DC-Derrick's Youtube Team DC Audio where theres a will theres a wall.......

Loudcivic Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 ericr: then quit post dumping and talkin shit in everybodys thread when you know nothing about the product. we all know you hate audiopipe op: the audiopipe 3000d will give you what you want as long as you stay at 2 ohms or above. if you get 6 dual 2 ohm subs you can have an ohm load of about 2.66 ohms and that would work fine on the 3000d 2015 silverado crew cab nothing atm but soon...

EricR Posted July 25, 2010 Report Share Posted July 25, 2010 Please explain to me how informing the OP about my opinion on an amp is post dumping. Don't worry, I'll wait for it. 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?

Team_DC-Derrick Posted July 25, 2010 Report Share Posted July 25, 2010 because the only thing you can say is *audiopipe is shit... you say the internals suck... but for 300, what can you find thats better? your comparing a 600$ amp most of the time to a 300$ one... which is retarded... like i said before, there is a hell of alot better than your precious sundown so unless you can generally give a amp in the price range that the OP will say, dont post dump stupid ass shit.. which is what you do.. for under 400$ the AP is actually a decent amp, when you get the $ to really spend, yes, of course sundown is better, but not everyone has sundown money, which is what you fail to realize... people make due with what they can get.. and audiopipe does damn near rated.. if you want to keep comparing amps, how about your precious sundown 4500s price vs my stetsom 7k2ds price... same price and stetsom is a hell of alot more powerful... but wait, its not made with sundown materials so it sucks.... oh, you will come back with saying it fries tinsels... guess what i tried to fry my tinsels... couldnt do it...after almost 6 months of abuse from my stetsom and my tinsels still look brand new... so you can throw that out the window... honestly, if all you are going to do is post dump, stop posting in these threads...

skittlesRgood Posted July 25, 2010 Report Share Posted July 25, 2010 sorry to add to all this but i have to... 1st off sundown does NOT use the best parts. do a search for the brand of caps they use and you will find tons of people talking about how shitty they are and how they blow up for "no reason". they are used in samsung TV power supplies and seem to be a high failure point. about AP. just because someone uses a product and loves it doesnt mean it is good. my 1st amp was a legacy and i loved it. how many people have never used one and know its crap? probably all of you and so do i now. i think eric's (and my) opinion on AP is mostly the lack of proof. anyone that has an AP amp, just get yourself a clamp meter and see how well they really do. or if anyone is close to me ill clamp it. im very interested to see how they do. until i see testing i have no proof that they are not crap. If I answered you in a well mannered, informative way, you asked a good question or had a good attitude. If I was an asshole, you asked a stupid question or you had a fucktard attitude... or I was in a bad mood.
