Mine had the fan deal too and it never died, had to put the comp on it's side to ventilate it since it'd end up smellin like burnt toast sometimes

oh, trust me.. they arent bad for the $$$ at all... Gateway owns em so at least theres good intentions behind it..

its just like anything thats lower tier product line.. you get lemons and you get limes.. sometimes you get a great one that works for years.. you dont ever really know tho

Hahah, maybe not daytons.

There have been people that have tried 2 talk me out of it though. And some say it would be crunk. I'm stuck.

what did you just say?

its a 500 watt amp, from what I searched. But still what the hell was that post saying?

It didn't make a whole lot of sense, did it?

O h I see now

Details

Outputs: 1 Pair - Peak Watts: 1700 x 1 - Bridged Watts: 500 x 1 - With Built-in Crossover - With Bass Boost

Bridged RMS Power: 850W x 1 @ 2 ohms

Youre going by the peak watts.

Yep.

**** i just realized acidburn deleted half the posts...

hmm... need i fear a ban hammer? are we cleaning up the forum in these "Post 12 year old days" ?

It has nothing to do with cleaning up the forum.

It's cleaning up posts in this specific thread by people who registered in '07 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

how is that amp 1000 watts? Whats the model number again?
Kenwod 9102d?

It's not.

i was DoingStuffWell..

back in 2005... had a RE HC18 in my montero back then.. and had like 20 posts. you can check it out with a search.. im still using the AIM name and the montero got totalled last week.. but if you wanna play "whos been around longer"... technically i was around in Aug of 2005.

Wheeeeeeeeeeee!

I was here before that //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

nothing. im ripped..

i dunno what the orig question was... how i was getting the wattage specs i was figuring? well its a 1700 peak, 800 rms.. at 2 ohms. lets call it 1000 for now and all have a beer.

I see that you had edited in "per Prowler's disapproval" in the sig for that other username.

It isn't so much Prowler's disapproval, fella - the point (allegedly) to this website in the first place is supposedly getting more educated on all aspects of car audio purchase/installation/use/implementation/etc.

So - with that in mind, let's educate you! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/thumbsup.gif.3287b36ca96645a13a43aff531f37f02.gif

RMS ratings for that amp are 500w @ 4 Ohms and 850w @ 2 Ohms (CEA 2006 ratings standards compliant)

Peak or Max wattage is a completely meaningless figure when considering real-world usage so let's take those statistics (1700w my arse) and chuck them out the window never to be considered or quoted again.

They are good for nothing more than marketing purposes and should be treated with the appropriate disdain as a result.

ANY amp - regardless of quality - isn't going to output the top end of its wattage capabilities when listening to music. So - even with the volume cranked wide open (but still just shy of clipping) you'll never see 850w from that amp while listening to music. With a 50Hz test tone, perhaps, but not plain music.

With that in mind - and having absolutely no clue where you're getting this 1,000w output figure from now - be aware that even though the amp is plenty capable of making 850w during normal use it never will.

So! That's why I scoffed at the presence of the 1,700w stat in your previous posting signature. Again ~ it's not as much disapproval as it is the knowledge that such a claim was simply wrong.

if it aint one thing its another....


music keg burnt out. For no apparent reason.... nothing has change with it, just sitting in the same spot, wasnt moving(driving). just burnt out and smoked a little.

Music Keg?

I didn't know you ran Kenwood gear, Hero.

I learned something today, methinks...

But, i cannot leave

You're right.

You can't.
