New test..IA 20.1 vs. Kicker ZX2500.1 vs. Orion 2500D

[TypeRBass 10+ year member]

think you could change the title so ORION is not included in this test as it was not tested?
i did a test like this awhile back with

rf t3000

orion 2500d

phd 5000

boy was there alot of the same thing.... this should have done that , ect ect

i would like to say that we have alot of power at the shop now for any one needing power to test amps

i have 4 2400's in the trunk and one up front and my teammate has 5 17v banks

i have on hand right now orion d5000's orion 2400d's rf t3000's and a few fusion 4kw surfboards!!

lets test!!!!

yeah i was supposed to test an orion alongside these two but it didn't happen. But the IA might have done more power than the orion. most likely it would have. with the orion @ .5 and IA @ .25 dcr

i will also say to that , NOPE ask team 420's member toby newton.

the 20.1 will not beat the 2500d in his test.

also just making clear that the 2500d can and has been ran down to .15 but did its most power at .35

If it wasn't such a pain in the *** to get mine out and wire it up in your car (two sets of 4 gauge terminals vs. your single 1/0 runs //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif ) we could've tested it as well.

I'm guessing it would actually be a fairly close battle between the 2500d @ .5 and the 20.1 @ .25.

The one time we clamped my 2500d @ 1 ohm dcr, I was rising to 2.7 ohms and we were getting a tad more than 1500 watts out of it.

i wish i would have clamped my 2500D's before i sold em.

but the IA's are 99% sure of being sold...local guy interested in em...he popped out of nowhere too. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Glad you got some test results, I still believe something is wrong or the 20.1 would perform a lot better!
On Big Dave, I think he just gets a little aggravated in general as he knows a lot about all 3 amps. Gorman had 20+ Orion 2500's in his van and even at one time there whole crew had them Gorman, Willy and Dave. So he's got 3 years or so experience with them. Also the 3 of them build a lot of cars and I mean a lot they even do work for other Kicker cars so they have a lot of first hand experience with the Kicker ZX2500.1's. We even have a few Kicker guys on the team that have shared there results with us as well and out of TONS of test results, all which are close in number, the results didn’t go the way yours did. I'm not here to argue with any of you, the 20.1 are proven and everyone knows it. If you want to count our wins vs. loses in the lanes go ahead last count I had our batting average was about .950 or so in Drag and even higher in USAC. So with that being said I can see how Dave gets easily aggravated when he is giving valid info and taking a beating for it. Every time a 20.1 post comes along and one of my guys sees it and post they somehow are “taking up” for there brand so to speak, I don’t see it that way at all. There is a reason said guy is on my Team and that’s because he knows the products work or he’d be on another team. I mean I could easily say to TypeRBass that it’s convenient that the Kicker amp won since he’s on Team Kicker. So at the end of the day I’m glad you got your results and the Kickers work best for you. I love Tracy to death and hope to see him at NOPI Nationals in a few weeks, so in closing let calm down and have fun and stop pointing the finger. Now, I’m off to get a cold Bud! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Doesnt matter.......I just found it amusing that a guy using 5 x 7 extremes (and actually admitting to it) had anything to say about WHERE you work.

I also notice that he didnt bother to state where he works. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/up2something.gif.dd110ecf3ae4b76050d87598f2f8de7c.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/greedy.gif.5a53e6246569d7ab79867170f3b06629.gif
