Ohhh I wish I had an alternator that could handle the power of that amp, or I'd get it in a second //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gifUsed mint Audiopipe APSM-1300 Car Audio Sub Subwoofer Amp Amplifier | eBay
Ohhhh snap, look what AP came out with
NEW AUDIOPIPE APSM1500 1500W CLASS D CAR AUDIO AMPLIFIER AMP 1500 WATT APSM-1500 | eBay
^^^the 1500 has the adjustments on the side, so much better then the 1300 with them on the bottom. Plus this one does more rms
Here's my situation.The side adjustment is worth the extra $15 alone IMO. Mango, why not just set the gain with a DMM and itd still draw the same at, say 900wts and it would have the same draw on eather amp?
If you set your gains properly with a DMM they would pull the exactly same amperage, assuming you set it for the same wattage. If your ready to buy and cant get a 1300 this would work fine. Plus the settings are on the end vs being on the bottom, drove me crazy with my APSM1300. Plus that give you headroom for upgrading later on or atleast the optionHere's my situation.
Stock 18 year old 80 amp 12v alternator.
Planned System will include 2 Infinity Reference 12's each at 300 watts RMS
I don't want to blow the subs by running 500 watts RMS to each.
I have 2 options, one of which I have questions for.
Either I can get some 375-500 watt RMS subs, hook em up to a 1500 at 2 ohms, and turn the gain all the way down, so I'm not pushing more than 750 watts RMS from the amp,
OR, just stick with the infinity subs, get the 1300 and have the subs and amp matched perfectly.
I like the second idea.
werdWho cares? Its a shitty amp. Spend an extra $50 and get something thats worth it.
Hey for its 2 ohm 600 watt RMS rating, its perfect for the Infinity Reference subs I want to get. I think I picked a solid amp for my setup. Now if I wanted to do a 1 ohm stable 1000 watt RMS, I would've gone with the new ASPM 1500. Building a budget system, not a $900 knock your socks off system.Who cares? Its a shitty amp.
