SAZ-2500D v.2 Prototype Completed

[sundownz]

We should have it in a week or so to test ourselves; factory testing has went very well and it is meeting all of our design goals.

Length without feet = 18.89"

With the feet total length is roughly on par with the original version (20.15") -- then the case is of course narrower. So overall foot-print is down.

Will get some side to side pics when the prototype gets here.

...I'd smoke the sh1t outta that!

The amp is here at the shop :

* The main capacitor bank now contains 160v units for maximum reliability at 19v operation.

* As with the other new 2012 amps we have a fan

* 16x IRF064N power supply MOSFETs (BEEF)

Hmmm I've seen good 1500 watt amps with half that many IRF064N's in the power supply. Should be a beast of an amp.

Looks good. Is there a price point your expecting this at?

[tat2bass]

Meh :drool:

[sundownz]

12v clamp testing :

2420 @ 1.86 ohms
67.1v
36.06a

2490 @ 1.57 ohms
66.2v
42.1a

2750 @ 1.40 ohms
62.1v
44.3a

2950 @ 0.94 ohms
52.4v
56.3a

Very pleased with that. It is right on par with the v.1 model -- we will do typical minor tweaks on production and maybe squeeze a few % more out of it.

As usual this was done on my Extech power clamp; it reads power out directly very accurately. I use measured voltage to calculate amperage and then actual impedance.

Once I get a handful of free time I will do a 16v round-up with all of the new prototypes.

We expect them to retail from authorized dealers for $775

[sundownz]

Oh I forgot to put supply voltage in... woops.

On the lower power figures we had around 13-13.3v and at higher power 12.5v at the time of measurement (my meter reads about 3-5 seconds in to the tone)

how much we talkin jacob?? this is what i want for my daily car

[pinoy2o9]

Sell me that prototype pls.

[DbDesigns]

love those angled mosfets and the fan is a very nice addition! grade A work as always.

[CAT MAN]

wow. my amp uses them same caps. never bought a cap but when i did i fell out. beast amp jacob. maybe we could work out a backdoor special? :naughty:

[murph]

Keyboard is a little sticky...

[sundownz]

Regular MAP from a dealer will be $775

Pre-order specials will apply just as with the 1500D v.3 and 125.4

[gramser57]

any updates?

[basshead7890]

from their facebook page

"A bit more delay than anticipated... But production on the SAZ-1200D, SAZ-2500D v2, and SAZ-3500D v2 starts this week. This will put the amps in around the end of January. The ETA for more NS-1s is still to be announced so stay tuned !"

[jaeguerra909]

Wow Jacob I am amazed how this thing put out near close to rated at all most 2 ohm rising

[Thumpersplbassx]

This amp could used in my crazy idea for a system.
