PA1.5000d amp, is it any good

[Carsonb99]

hey guys I have a soundstream amp right now but it keeps clipping and the highest I can turn it up without clipping is no where near what a zv4 12 can do ( that is why I have) so I am wondering if a PA1.5000d will power my zv4 12 thanks guys!

move away from soundstream if you want your sub to slam.

do you have any recommendations, trying not to break the bank so I'm looking for in the 500 or lower range if possible

The soundstream tarantulas are decent even the Picasso's are decent. There not what I'd call competition amps but they are decent for the money.

You need about 3000 for the sundown so I would suggest starting there..

The PA 5000.1 is the Picasso 2500 which will probably be closer to about 2000 so you really need something more powerful I have a good suggestion for you..

I wouldn't pay that. They can be had cheaper. He'll I don't wanna pay 300 for 3kw.. lol they not bad amps. I've fucked with one recently. It's a solid 2500 it was impressive even at low voltages..

where you getting 3kw clean for under 300? honest question

What impedance is your zv4? If it's dual 1, then running two smaller amps strapped is an option I've seen a couple of people use for cheap power. Might not be the most ideal option, but should work.
