Sold FS: Kicker ZR series amp circuit boards

[Ge0 10+ year member]

Let me start by saying these circuit boards are NON FUNCTIONAL!!!

With that said...

For one reason or another I have a small stock of non-functional Kicker ZR, XS, and ZX series amplifier printed circuit board assemblies. I repaired many of them, threw them in heat sinks, and sold them to friends as refurbs. To make a long story short, I got busy in life and dropped this activity. They have been sitting in my basement for a few years. I've come to the realization that I will never do anything with these again now that I have a babies in the house. No time!!!

If you ever wanted to screw around with amplifiers at the board level this is your chance. In most cases these are relatively easy to fix. I will offer whatever advice I can to help you get them up and running. Mind you, if you do get them running and you want to use them, you'll need to buy a heat sink or fabricate one yourself (which can be fun).

Here is my price list.

ZR1000 - $40

XS100 - $40

ZR600 - $35

XS50 - $35

ZR360 - $25

ZX460 - $20

ZR240 - $20

ZR120 - $15

Willing to give discounts for package deals.

I am newer here but have been around various forums for over 10 years. References available upon request. Or, search my user name on Elite caraudio, Sound Domain, or DIY mobile audio.

Pictured are ZR1000, ZR240, and ZR600 PCBs. I can take others on request.

how much would it be if you repaired them prior to shipment? But if you don't have the time then i suppose i'll just have to go to Zed and have him do it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
I want to buy some from you but I'll probably end up asking you a bunch of questions. Don't know if you would be down with that

Seriously, I do not mind people asking me a bunch of questions. I figured that would go with the territory if I sold the boards here vs. on ebay. I like doing this stuff.

I threw out the idea of offering the service to repair them prior to shipment. My guesstimate is that the price of the board would probably double. HOWEVER, the more I think about this the more I am hessitant. You see, I can guarantee the board leaves my shop fully functional. I can send paperwork showing what it benched at. However, I would not be able to offer a warranty.

Sorry if I mislead you. I don't have complete amps. At one time I used to construct them but unfortunately no longer have time in my life for this.
I am selling Kicker ZR, XS, and ZX series circuit boards. The boards I currently have are non functional. However, I am contemplating what it would take to repair them and sell them as functional refurbs.

I can't help you with 2000Wx1. I don't think you could successfully slave the outputs of two bridged ZR1000's together to drive a single load without risk of damaging the amps.

However, 100Wx4 / 200Wx2 is a piece of cake. You could do:

2 ZR600's under one chassis for approximately 150Wx4

2 ZR350's under one chassis for 90Wx4

Or, do a single ZR1000 if all you need is 250x2

Mind you, these are standard manufacturers ratings. These amps were under rated. Expect about 10% to 20% more power out of them that what they are rated for.

If i run two zr1000s together at a relatively high ohm load (4/8 ohm) would it work? Or would the xs100 work better for that application?

How much would it be for

2 zr 240(which could be made into a 4ch. right?)

1 zr 600

And two of either the zr1000 or xs100 if two of either those can be made to run at a higher ohm load without damaging the amp. If that can't be done. I'll take one zr1000

The warranty thing is completely understandable since it is an electronics item. I trust you and your work since i have seen you around for a long time

I'll PM you with the pricing.

The ZR1000 was designed to run at 2ohm stereo, 4 ohm mono. No problems there. The XS100 was made to run at 1 ohm stereo, 2 ohm mono. The only difference is in the power supply.

Yes, two ZR240's could be combined to give you a 4 channel.

let me get 2 xs100 then

What type of power do you need? I.E. channel configuration...
Each board needs about 2.5" clearence from top to bottom. If you start stacking them inside a chassis you need to take that into account. However, if you have more width than depth available you could always stack them end to end vs. on top of each other.

Oh, speaking of length. The length varies by amp board model.

I can take exact measurements when I get home tonight, but, a ZR1000 is about 28 inches long. A ZR240 is about 12 inches long.

well i'll for sure be running a 4" tang band and a set of sea's tweets my mid bass's are yet to be determined

I think a ZR 1000 and 2 Zr240 would be cool stack the 240's over the 1000 or just seperate how much for those three shipped to 61016

how much do the xs100s put out @1ohm anyhow?

 

[dragnix 5,000+ posts]

1000watts rated

edit: wrong thread, my bad

 

[mjf 10+ year member]

just thinking about a 4 channel 1 ohm stable per channel.

 

[dragnix 5,000+ posts]

that would be rather sick, do it

 

[mjf 10+ year member]

the only amp i could think of that can, is a rockford, but i think this would be a bit more badass.

 

[Ge0 10+ year member]

The XS100 is designed to deliver 1000W at 1 ohm. However, I do not recommend driving 1 ohm loads with Any of the ZR / XS series amps. They run hot as it is. Adding a lower impedance load could cause infant mortailty. Not to say its a bad design. I'm just saying perhaps a class D amp would be better to drive that sort of load.

aw no fun.

I'd end up setting my car on fire if I put one together.
