LOL @ RD Audio & if RD owes you something (RD super fail topic)

[Highs on bass]

I lol at RD Audio. The only reason I would go with most company's are the Customer Service. If I can contact someone who is smart enough to realize what kind of things go on with their products and are able to relate, help, and or fix issues that might arise, Then I might go with their product. Example: Sundown, Second Skin, etc. Second is product quality/cost. RD stuff isn't so cheap. And there is def an issue with the products.

I gotta agree the first time I saw DC stuff the first thing that came to mind was RE knockoffs. But if they treat people better than RE they're already ahead of the game.

Even if they are, like you say, Their customer service is top notch. I email rusty just to bullshit every now and then and he's cool. Call me a dick rider or not but DC and Sundown has the best customer service in this industry. Period. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

Customer service is king, all it takes is one mishap by a company that goes unmitigated and it will be the first nail in the coffin.

If it was never hooked up, Write "NSP"

Thanks

You pay to ship it to Steve, He pays to ship a brand new one back to you.

.5 ohm stable. not officially rated at .5 ohm. guestimation around 14.4 volts is just shy of 4kw

size =

505mm X 250mm X 70mm or 19.88in X 9.84in X 2.75in

Any idea of power at 3ohms?

approx 1300-1400 I would guess

About how much power should I expect to see at .5Ω?

approx 3800w

300A fuse recommended

2 year warranty

paypal is revolutiondaudio@yahoo.com

or you can pm your contact info and you can pay card by phone.

I know what the build house told me and that’s what I am telling you guys. Once the problem is found they will fix the problem and send me new amplifiers to replace the ones I collect. All of them.

What I need from the guys who have had a problem with the amps is the following.

Send me a email to smiller@rdaudio.net with pics of the pcb and pics or vids of the install if you got it, they want to see the connections if possible. I need:

a breif summary of what your electrical is

what is rca voltage?

what size and ohm subwoofers ran to what final load?

All of the 3250 will be replaced with new 3250 that will be problem free.

-we want them ALL back working or not. You can use it until I need it.

I cant do refunds. All I can do is replace the amplifier. Most of these amplifiers have no problem but I felt a recall would help in the long run.

Original buyers for warranty: if someone bought one we will still replace it but they will have to contact me since I don’t know who they are.

What I'm worried about is all these new amps burning up within 5 minutes. I will not be able to install mine for months so I don't know if I need to risk waiting.

Once we get all the amps in hand we will find the cause of the problem but from pictures its not the same problems. Had a good convo with build house , they will replace any of them that are burnt or that are unopened. You wont get same amp back, it will be from a new run after problem is solved. If you have them and you havn’t turned it up because you were scared go ahead and turn it up. If it blows you will get new amp.

We just have to find problem so new ones are good to go. The owner called an assured me that its going to be taken care of.

Link?

Notice all the hype, notice how many people are running them now, notice how many were for sale and how many were blown... I dont know anyone able to run them for more then a week and still have them work properly.

DC FTW!

Guess that is why you wont get very far.

lol this.


So bumpin comes over riding steves dick because he proly got a great deal on his RD shit plus the free 15"s that he got for that 15" Challenge that he turned around and sold. Thats understandable. Everyones stupid once in a while

Steve/RD has had horrible customer service, i was ready to let him build me a custom 10" and when i was ready to pay he stopped returning PM's. You can make the excuse that he is trying but this shouldn't have happened in the first place. Other companies do extensive testing to make sure they dont lose their *** if something like this happens. To see it as a bitter sweet example of him "trying" is just poor excuse making.

Lets talk about DC too. Look at DC's satisfaction rate. Look at their following. They have almost the same amound of people backing them as Sundown and for a good reason. Bumpin calls it poor planning even though he ran DC before ******* steves dick. If DC is the same as RE which he is trying to say, then why does their shit last longer and why is there a failure rate that is almost non exsistant.

I suggest before you trash talk shit, you form your unbiased opinion or keep your stupid comments to the CACO boards where you canstantly get flamed even though your Staff.

Good day gents.

Man your a real butthurt 16 year old. I didnt do anything to you over on CACO, never did.

How about you grow up and get your fact straight before arising to poor conclusions, which in the end just make you look like a jackass.

I sent all 15" challenge subs back to the owners, minus the Z15 as Jacob had found a local buyer, get your facts straight kid before you front.

My only affiliation I ever had/have with steve is the fact that hes been in the hospital and I told him to help the company I would organize orders for him. I have also tried setting up a simple C-5 system for him. Does that make me biased on him... not really. I agree his customer service has sucked but I am noticing more and more how everyone who says this are kids, kids who have never purchased anything more then a E8 or a DC lvl3, giving them no legitimate say... that they are simply a poor attempt at being a keyboard commando.

If I owned one id pay to ship it out to him just for the peace of mind of getting the issue fixed. At least he is being proactive, fucking DD would just tell me to "call back next week" for MONTHS after the first round of DD Z1's smoked and I just finally told them to give me my money back. At least RD is taking care of srz biszznuss.
