Ditched the bx1500d...what now?

i have come up with a list of options it is as follows:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=18796&item=5738219881&rd=1

(leaning toward one of these refurbed visoniks)

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=18797&item=5736868092&rd=1

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=18797&item=5736668541&rd=1

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=18796&item=5737485621&rd=1

and thats it so far those visoniks seem like a killer deal, and i thought i heard that they werent too bad. tell me what you think

oh, im also considering one of those modded 1502d's from scotties bullpen 2000rms@1ohm

off ebay for like 330 brand new(shipped) or pm monte_carlo97 for a qoute.

Speaking of the A3000db when are you looking at getting yours. Christmas present to yourself? Let me know when you are ready for it.

nope it was modded to take lower independence and take more voltage

i just talked to scottie, he said 2000 RMS @1ohm...WTF???

yea whats wrong with that? you said it earlier in the thread and seemed happy about it, and now you say "wtf?" i dont get it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

yes but i thought this guy was sayin nope that it wasnt true....

nope it was modded to take lower independence and take more voltage

...and at lower impedances with higher supply voltage.... what do you think happens?

 

[brandontw 10+ year member]

but im not worindg it to lower impedence or higher voltage, just 1 ohm, at like 12-13 volts

It's a 2 ohm stable amp out of the box...modding it allows it to drop to a lower impedance, and when you drop impedance, power increases (given enough voltage)...//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

but is it clean power???

No, it's stinky, dirty power.

To make it easier: if it puts out 1500rms@2ohm simple math would say 3000@1ohm.

I would however say that you can realistically expect 1.8 - 2k from a 14-15 vdc supply. Preferably you have a "hi" pre out voltage, even better, a linedriver.

I dont remember what MTX rated them at originally (12, 13.8, 14.4vdc), sorry.
