[TypeRBass 10+ year member]

well...just metered with the 20.1's...

2 orions - 154.6

2 IA 20.1's - 152.7

wired to the same impedence (2 dual 2's per amp wired in parallel)

hrmmm....

??? sounds just as loud. I think somethins up...gotta figure it out.

interesting, well the orions have more watts to start out with...?

dont the orions put more power @ 1 ohm iirc? i cant remember how much the 20.1's put out @ 1 ohm..... it just seems as i've read before the 20.1 handle them low loads ALOT better //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

no..not if the IA is @ .5

 

[photocrazy8 10+ year member]

no..not if the IA is @ .5

well 2 dual 2 subs would be .5 ohm so that means that the orions are out workin the IA's //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

the 2500D boner just got stiffer

yay //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

too bad they dont make em any more... i think we should get em to start making em again

wish i could get the funds for a 2500D. its going to be my next amp, hopefully

 

[PESteele 10+ year member]

well i think the 2500d puts out 2500 @ 1 ohm and the IA puts out 1800 @ 1ohm

 

[04redmach1]

Yep, IA is 1800@ 1 ohm. Go ahead and put the IA down to .2 ohms and do same to Orion, watch the magic smoke, hell the magic fire appear form the Orion.

 

[PESteele 10+ year member]

how much the IA put out @ .5

 

[PH_Shorty 10+ year member]

well i have had a weird rca issue since i put the IA's in...weird interference and it makes the subs do like 20hz burps slightly..its really odd....

but yeah i think its time to strap em to a low ohm load...//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

(crap this is typerbass btw...at a friends house //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif )

beh id take the orion over the IA anyday for my apps anyhow. I never need under .5 ohms and you can find Orions used for 400ish cant find IA for that

 

[tommyk90 5,000+ posts]

well i think the 2500d puts out 2500 @ 1 ohm and the IA puts out 1800 @ 1ohm

This post would be relevant if the amps were being run at 1 ohm, but they aren't

tommy fix your meter and make it not be so homosexual...i seriously think your meter is reading considerably low...

(joe again, darnit forgot to log out, oh well i'm lazy)

20.1 below .5 is where it starts making its power.
