[QUOTE="SeanDub, post: 4600999, member: 568046"] Alright. I am quite disappointed. I am in the process of trading my Stetsom 2k6 for an Atomic 5000.1. The first part of the trade was for me to receive the Atomic and test it to make sure everything works properly. Well, it arrived on Friday, and I hooked it up Saturday to run at 2 ohms on my DD 9515 Dual 1. It did, and it worked fine. I did not do much testing with it at 2 ohms. Then I hooked it up at 0.5 ohm today, and set the gains for 50 (SQRT(5000X0.5) = 50). Well, after some adjusting of the low pass filter and such, I got it about as loud as it could get tonight. Well, I have an AudioControl Epic 150, and whether it is not the equivalent of the TL is not relevant here. What is relevant is that I get real time feedback. The fact is the Atomic 5000.1 is putting up the same **** scores as the Stetsom 2k6d - same tone, same box, same sub, same electrical, different amp. So, my next mission is to get in there and do some clamp testing tomorrow. The Stetsom did 2924 @ 0.95 ohm. I don't know what to expect, but I'm hoping I'm not getting 3000 watts at 0.5 ohm from the Atomic. Anyway, here are some rather crappy pics I took of the internals. Maybe someone can spot an issue.
