Lanzar VIBE252 Wattage

[dwalker2020]

Hello all

im building a PA system using car audio parts, and im curious about this amp:

the Lanzar VIBE252

amazon.com/dp/B003CN5NX6/ref=asc_df_B003CN5NX61841967?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&tag=pg-520-01-20&linkCode=asn&creative=395097&creativeASIN=B003CN5NX6

at 2x750 Watts RMS, it seems to be pretty beefy, but then the fuses are only rated at

3x25 amps. that seems really low!

is the RMS rating off drastically?

thanks for your time

yes its way overrated. lanzer only good line is the Opti line.

that amp seems a little closer to what its rated at. idk how efficient it is or how reliable it is.

not true the vibe series is as good as the opti line

oh man just looked at specs I erase my last statement lol very over rated 3x25 fuses is not get close too 1500 watts

one of vibes does 3200 with a 250 amp fuse now that's believable but the one u were lookin at idk

 

[dwalker2020]

thats what i was thinking as well.

for example, the Lanzar OPTI500X2 is 500x2, but it has 4x40 amp fuses.

way more believable.

i dont understand why power ratings vary so much. can't seem to trust them

im also looking for amp suggestions, if you have any.

Because there's no governing body that holds their feet to the fire. In the budget category you just have to research carefully.

And if someone tried to they'd just say -- Well, if you power it up with 18v and put it in a refrigerator it will produce rated power at 1000hz for 2 seconds so... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif
