Audiopipe is sub-par

Low quality, uber cheap power is the way of the market right now, and it is sad.

bro its not like im a new guy just trying to say something i never tested. me and gucci hooked all my new stuff up and tested both amps.. the ap suced like a 2$ hooker

At this point I'm starting to believe the test was done and that it's legit. But there has to be something wrong with your AP man that's all that I'm saying I have videos of me running my aP1500.1D on my 18" and my voltage never went below 13v.

Yeah like Sundown is starting to be China made :-/ they'll be the next RE soon. Nah JK jacob wouldn't let that happen then again money does crazy things to people.

dude ive done mad numbers and mad installs for 5 years. i know exactly what can go wrong. everything was perfect on both amps... and the mb quart was just 100% better.

Then I guess my AP was just ****** or an anomaly just happened.

To be honest they are both sub par. I hate both with a passion, yet I know for a fact that the MBQ is a much better amp than the AP.

I hate them both too except the Onyx 4 channel isn't too bad I run one and it's turned way down IMO performs better than my old KX600.4. and i never said MBquart wasn't better it's for a fact but only because it costs more if moneys not a big problem deffinatly get the MBquart but if you're saving as many pennies as possible on the cheap the AP1500.1D is not a bad amplifier.

No I measured it with a DMM and even went an extra 10v because I wasn't losing that much voltage.

I love this forum, if you say AP is cheap junk then your cool, but say sundown is overpriced and better can be had for the money and shi! hits the fan

Well are you willing to admit I'm a more efficient installer then? with less experience than you? because i havn't done as many installs as you and it never ran that bad for me. Or are you willing to admit you have a bad product possibly? or something. Because we both have proof but yours doesn't make any sense.

um no you admitted to setting the gain 10v less than it was called for because of voltage drop. how about you grow a brain and learn who i am and what ive done. get off of your AP cock and learn once in a while. many test havee already proven how innefficient they are. this was a test for me to find out and guess what... AP *****

Why don't you learn to read and type you seem illiterate sometimes. I said I ran the gain an EXTRA 10v because my voltage DID NOT drop that much. You tell me to grow a brain yet you spell "immature" "inmature." and how am I on AP's **** I've stated a ton of times I didn't like mine hence why I got my DC 1.2K and the 1.2K is not enough power so now off to a 2.0K, if I was AP's nuts dont you think I'd have an AP3k by now?

ap 70db signal to noise ratio that's just dirty power

ive always thought those Audiopipe amps were garbage
