whats the efficiency?

 

[talon2nr7588 10+ year member]

if you can tell me the efficiency i can figure out how much current it will draw.

i played music with mine at 0.25 ohms...

ofcourse, there was impedance rise... and it wasnt anywhere near full power either... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

ok the z1 is rated at 3000@1 ohm on 14 volts, but was benched at 5358W at 1.15 ohms.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif i can only imagine what it will do on 16 volts.

ok so it is 85% efficient so...

it will pull 450.25 amps

They won't run at 16...protection cuts in at 15.5...I have 4 of the 2nd generation Z1's and they are stronger than the first generation when those test results were printed...//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

one bummer i didnt like about the Z1 was the power connections on it, you could only fit 4 gauge in it, which surprised me when i pulled it out of the box....I was like "uhh wtf?"

that big of an amp and only 4ga. inputs? you would think of a comapny like DD and who build subs for the spl scene would do 0ga. on their amps.What gen. snoop?

 

[pwuthedon 10+ year member]

both gens

he's right..... And i dont understand it, for an amp that runs $1200 you'd think a 50 cent part would be no big deal.
