Best inexpensive class d amp ?

[rumdada 10+ year member]

Hey guys been out the game for a while put in a system last year with a fsd audio fa 1200d amp and 2 American audio xfl 12s.

My amps been cutting out and making my subs pulsate when I turn it up it’s been good for over a year now I lowered the gain and it’s still happening.

Long story short what would be a good amp to power these subs ?

Looking for something fairly inexpensive.

Thanks in advanced

are they d4 subs? orion xtr 1000 puts out probably 1350 rms or so at 1 ohm.. or ppi p1k like mine $169 tested over 1100rms at 1 ohm

I'm selling a DC Audio 2k, 2500 rms @ 1ohm, does bout 3k at .5. 1400+ at 2.

I would be more concerned about pulsating subs/getting your issue fixed 1st. Because I can guarantee you, changing amps isn't gonna fix the problem if that's your intention. Could be as simple as a bag ground causing the issue. You said you lowered the gain....which tells me you don't know how to set the gain properly to match HU. Where is the gain set now? Describe it as numbers on a clock.

What is your electrical like? Is the big 3 done? Need more info.

Actually that's exactly what one of my CAB's did when it died from vibration... Might or might not be the problem... best troubleshoot it first like you said... could be anything

cab 1600.1

I was not going to mention it... seems to be hated on lately... I'm a fan tho...

cab 1600.1

Powerful, Cheap and Versatile...(It can handle low impedance with strong electrical)... I had problems with one due to mounting it on a F'd-up box that I built while disabled... the box separated internally and the vibration caused it to start playing this weird 10hz death note... loud... I warrantied it with no problems and they are still going strong... yes, I'm a fan!

Will add that it's 200 bucks.

OP...need to know budget.

the belva maybe best for the xfl's since they actually take some power and we know the 5k actually does over 2k rms (i forget exact test #) big blank should know.. this is if u have the electrical for it big 3 wires and all if not u may should stick with xtr ppi or sq 1200 $219 right now.. get that dc 2k if he'll give u a deal..

The DC 2k does not make 2500@1... nor does it make 3k at 0.5

And no, an amp dyno showing burst power at 0.5 reactive is not the same thing. Especially since 0.5 reactive will protect 99% of amps (if you are lucky)

Wow.. kinda like claiming the CAB does 4000+ at .5 ohm from watching the vids huh?.. more like around 2000 maybe a little more... sellers, dyno watchers and salesman tend to claim inflated numbers... I'd be surprised if I was getting even 3000 clamped from those cabs at 1 ohm strapped...

Precisely ^

The dc is a solid amp. Doesnt need inflated claims
