Thanks for the posts and the PMs guys, but I have found that I can use my existing two amps to power my entire system and so I will no longer be needing another amp. I now have my PPI Ax400 powering both my Utopias in the front and the XXX mids in the rear, and I have my US Amps 400x bridged to...

As an update, I have put the crossover so that it is full range for all channels and then used the crossover in my Alpine CDA-9835 HU to eliminate the unwanted frequenies in the speakers. Is this an OK way to do it, or should I be using the crossover in the amp itself as well? Thanks, Bryan

Hey Guys, I am trying to switch around my system, but don't know much about crossovers. My PPI Art Ax400 has a fairly complicated built-in crossover and I am not sure how to set it. It has six switches that determine the crossover's setting. Currently I have my RE-XXX 6.5" mids running off...

Or maybe I could attempt this myself? I just really don't know: a.) How to bridge the US Amps 400x. Do just use the positive of one channel and the negative of the other channel? b.) Where I put the RCAs. Two pairs of RCAs should go into the PPI Ax400 (for the Utopias and the XXX mids)...

Thanks I see you are from Canada as well . . . would you happen to be from Ontario and know some good installers in any of the areas between Toronto and Kitchener? I need to have the following changes done but don't like doing wiring stuff myself: - Change the ID sub from Parallel wiring to...

Hey Guys, Like the title says: I have a PPI Art Ax400 amp that I would like to use to power my Focal Utopia 165W components in the front (4-ohm load) and the RE-XXX 6.5" Mids in the rear (2-ohm load). Is this safe for the amplifier? I know that my installer had it hooked up this way in my...

Hey Guys, I am looking for a good-quality amp, preferably Diamond, Arc, US Amps, old-school PPI, or similiar to power my single Image Dynamics IDQ12 (dual 2-ohm sub). The amp should be about 400W - 600W RMS at either 4-ohm or 1-ohms. For the record, I am not really interested in any amps by...

FOr the record, it is only stable to 2-ohms, not 1-ohm Here is the manual: http://www.diamondaudio.com/products/pdfs/D5_600.1%20&%201200.1-5603.pdf#search=%22%2B%22D5%20600.1%22%2B%221%20ohm%22%22 --Bryan--

I am interested in one of the D3 600.1's. Do these prices include shipping? Could you please send me an email to bdonkersgoed(at)gmail(dot)com including a pic or two and we can discuss further? Thanks! Bryan

Thanks. --Bryan--

Alright, that's cool. Let me know if you decide otherwise. I am in the market for a new amp now, and am likely buying one within the next day or two. --Bryan--

Oh crap . . . I somehow forgot to read the second page of posts in this thread. Sorry about that. --Bryan--

Is it sold yet? --Bryan--

Is this still for sale? Please send me an email: bdonkersgoed(at)gmail(dot)com Thanks, Bryan
