I thought that was a PG amp w/2 boards in a single heatsink? You have pics of the sub, kindof interested to see it...

I think it is actually Dr. Krankenstein and they use to carry those at Wal-Mart. In my honest opinion they have the coolest name in car stereo and some of the worst products. Next to sony of course.

It's not a Phoenix Gold product, and it also wasn't ever carried by WalMart.

If there was a "Dr. Krankenstein", that sounds like the same flea-market mentality that brings us such famous name rip-offs as:

Xplor

Rockwood

Kenford

and more. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

Dr. Crankenstein was a brand that existed in the eighties, right through much of the nineties... but you saw fewer and fewer ads for them in magazines in the mid 90's and later... probably a sign that they were headed downhill financially.

For all I really know, they may still have product today - they simply may have shrunk right out of view. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/chicken.gif.218ea7401db50d5e31a7e0b37e05e21e.gif

yes, i remember crankenstein very well during the 90's.. they had some really powerful stuff released in 95, but shortly after, they just withered away...

Yes, Dr. Crankenstien was a good company in the 90's, but after their demise, Walmart did carry a very cheap sub with the bought out name only....Not the same sub, but the same name....So, your both sort of right.....just my $.02 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fart.gif.9285a21c4a53b1a914c9dedbfcf9d894.gif

I have a 12" Crankenstein in my mustang right now...2.3 cuft ported box. Fairly loud and it has taken the abuse for the last 6 years or so. Poor thing just won't die. It's alright but nothing spectacular. You should do alright with 2 10's.

200 RMS by the way. They can handle it and a little more.

Okay.....I must say...I hate Sony as a company...the only products I like of theirs is Playstation and their digital camcorders.....however...there is one other exception.

The Sony XM-3001SXD....has to be one of the best dollar/watt amps out there. I have been running an Orion HCCA 12D2 into 1 Ohm from this amp for almost two years with no problems....it cost no more than 200 dollars and according to an old AS&S review it puts out these numbers generated playing music and not test tones:

Rated 300 RMS 4 Ohm - Tested 462.25

Rated 600 RMS 2 Ohm - Tested 838.86

Rated 1000 RMS 1 Ohm - Not tested but my guess about 1200-1300

Don't forget that this amp was under $300...and under $200 with a PSP at Best Buy since I worked there.

Aside from these pieces SONY *****!

And my excuse is that I have no idea what the C-90 is. Fill me in.
