Well guys, I think I may have pulled a few dozen test with these amps!
They are very strong amps! They will hit 2000 watts if you can keep your voltage above 14 volts! I run them at 16v-18v @ 2400-2600 watts.
I charge my batteries with the amps still hooked with voltage in my Ford Probe over 20-21 volts and no magic smoke.
Now the new black ones have a very touchy protect circuit.
I currently have 2 of new 3000d amps for testing from Audiopipe.
