Dc audio amp question.

[FuckPeteCarroll]

Why do some amps have the two white bars on them while some are all black? Are they a different series or are the all black ones just older? Thanks

Ooohhh, I was going to buy a mint 9k on CL for $1300 bu now I'm probably just going to get the Ns1 v2 on eBay for same price.

The 9k is more power just keep either amp away from vibrations

So it's a bad idea to drill the amp to the box when I'm running that much power???

How much of a distance must be maintained from subwoofer enclosure for these amplifiers?

That depends on your build. But a nice amp rack behind the box or even under the box can work

I doubt that guy would sell you one of his dc amps anyway.

Ah you mean the custom shelf some people bed their amps in above the spare wheel right. Yes, that's what I've seen many do so I was surprised when you advised to maintain distance but you meant just not right next to it then...

I wouldn't even think about putting an amp with a big board like that on a box. Saw a guy at a show with an NS1 strapped to his box. He just let his system wang as he walked away. I pointed out to my buddy that the amp was flexing a stupid amount on the lows and was amazed he just let it get beat up like that. 10 minutes later the bass shuts off.. Amp in protect and never worked again lmao.

Why wouldn't he sell me one if I have the amount that he's asking for?? I'd sell my saz 3500d to a kid that wants to throw it in the god **** pacific ocean as long as I get my $600. Lol

i currently have my sundown saz v2 drilled to my box but I'm going to put it somewhere else now. Thanks for the advise guys.

My box is the most sturdiest part on my truck. Everything flexes like crazy. Specially the floor of the truck. Once u get loud enough pretty much everything shakes so ur amps are gunna feel some vibration.. I've had my amps mounted to the back of my boxes for years now and no failures. I must be doing something right.
