if its teh a3000db it does around 3200 watts at 16v and will play down to .25 ohms ( .5 strapped ) at 17 v until u get to finals and then they blow up on u in the lanes

Very solid amps. I used to own one.

do it up...its overrated but it will still do close to rated power. i have the 2400dB and i love it

Yea cause i was thining about perchasing an Orion 2400D or this amp. Which one would you prefer?

I've had the a1800db for a year and a half now and it has never given me any problems, I've also installed a 2400db and two a3000db's, very solid amps and reasonably priced.

1800x1

oh yeah, the a3000db does 2300 rms at 1 ohm, so with it maybe being slightly overrated or so you can figure getting a solid 2k out of it with a decent electrical system

wow, thats pretty good for only $300 then. I was also looking on ebay and found an amp called ALPHASONIK. its also 3000w, but i never heard of it. the amp has a nice deighn. check it out, has anyone seen these?

They seem to work well. One of the crawl-thru boxes I did in a Ford F150 xcab about 6 months ago had 4 of the 3000db's on a pair of DD 9515's and this guy runs his system one click below clipping at 1ohm nominal per amp ALL DAY LONG. Seriously, the guy listens to 150dB worth of 29-40Hz stuff everywhere he goes. They have not failed him yet. $300.00 is fairly cheap for the level of output and reliability that those amps seem to have.

That amp is rated for 1.1kW @ 4 Ohms.If the amp is somewhat of an underachiever do you reckon that might be around 900w or so? (@ 4 Ohms?)

Following this line of assumption (which is all it is at this stage until someone confirms or denies my suppositions) would y'all reckon it does around 450w @ 8 ohms?

A friend of mine has a project planned wherein he'll need an amp for the DVC 4 sub that he already has. I was thinking if my guessed figures are anywhere near accurate he could spend $300 and have plenty of juice for his single 12" DAT CM3 with a whole bunch of room for future system growth.

If it's as reliable as you guys are saying then I can see it being a worthwhile investment for him now.
