burnt up my amp. Choice to make..

[herbykw 10+ year member]

I burnt up my amp. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/mad.gif.c18f003ab0ef8a0d9c27ca78d77a6392.gif It was a crunch 3000 watt. It worked great, then just burnt up. So now i have some choices...

1: Keep my two Kicker L7 15"s... try to find a amp to push them for under $300

2: Sell L7s, and buy a 3000 to 5000 watt amp for my MA Audio HK 15" for about $400-500.

3: sell it all and roll with a stock setup......... ha ha .... yea right.

I will not waste money on anything made by maxxsonics again. Both amps i had from them burn up in the same exact spot.

I know many people think the MA Audio 15" Hard Kore series sub is crap.. but i had it hooked up to the two crunch 3000 watt amps and it pounded insanely hard. Then the amps started dying. If i made a better box with it ported to specs and run a higher RMS it can only get better.

Also, does anyone recommend any amps for either setup?

Are the two L7s ported or sealed

The L7s are in a Ported box. Made to specs. The MA Audio i had in a sealed box, but i would make a ported box for it also.

[herbykw 10+ year member]

Made a choice. I ordered the MA Audio HK802SX. 2 channel 4400watt rms. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif should be here today. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

hmmm both amps burnt up in the same exact fashion?

Pretty coincidental.

Not trying to be a jerk, but maybe theres something goin on? If it was the gp3000 pro... those are said to be solid performers.

I don't like those MA 2 channels.... I like their D class over AB class

The 802's aren't any worse then the 4000d's.They both require a large electrical to see the full potential.Plus for the 802 no mod is needed to run .5ohms or lower.

No they were not the GP Sadly they were the Crunch PZI3000. Good amps, but very very odd they burnt up in the same exact spot. Makes me nervous about using another Maxxsonics product.

Self pwnt ?

I had two Maxxsonics amps. They worked at the same time. Then one burnt up, and then about 2 months later the other did. Because of that i wont buy another one.

I dont think highly of them anymore. But i have heard good things about their Ground pounder and Brutus series.

its because its not a hifonics.

Hifonics, Crunch, Autotek, and MB quart are all made by the same company.
