I need held deciding which amp i should use to power my two 12 inch L7's, and suggestions?//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif

orion 2500d hands down. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Well. If price is an issue I'd get the optidrive, easily $100-200 less than the orion. The orion does 3000+ @.5 ohm 2500+@1ohm the optidrive does 1600+@.5 ohms. 1400+@1ohm. Those are 12v ratings.

the orion alllll dayyyyy lonnnnng

the lanzar sucks more current to do less power, hrm...

85% at full power 1/2 ohm and 79% at 1/3 power is ******* current?? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

The 1600w/1400w ratings are at 12.5V. It's 1900+ at 1/2 ohm,

1600@1 at 14.4v.

Either one would do a good job, but if you're going for all out SPL I think the Orion would be the obvious choice.

How does it compare to the opti 4000d?

How does WHAT compare? And why's it relevant?

 

[hoodkid 10+ year member]

i could get the opti for around $200, how much would an orion cost?

8-900 ish

Well right now i have 2 lanzar 1200d amps, and was going to sell them an get an opti2000d, but each amp can put out 1200 watts rms, so should i just stay with my 2 lanzar amps or get the opti? ANd i can get the opti for $300 plus warranty

How does the 2000 compare to teh 4000, just a Q //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

power at 1khz on a resistive load? lol

That really doesn't prove anything.

On that note... the opti 4000 is only .3 louder than the orion, at both 12v and 16v... and it sucks a hell of alot more current to do its power. The orion will burp on a 40 amp fuse easily at 1 ohm, the opti smoked a 50.... on 16v the orion easily burps a 50 and gains a db... the 4000 smokes 100 amps of fuse and gains a db, still being .3 ahead.

This being in a car, testing @ 1 ohm with a rise to approx 2.5... I didn't drop the opti down to .5 because it was already ****** too much current.

1700 watts with a resistive 1 ohm load is weak... the orion with 14.4v will do double that, literally.
