One of my friends Brand new one Held .5 ohm DAILY

never got hot

but after rise it was around .7-.9

Alright, I think im conviced this amp is good for the price...

Now to make a pruchase, lol...

The reason i liked this amp was the ratings at the load given. I havent decided if im going with 2 15" SSD's or 2 15" Q's. I know the given power at 2ohms will push the SSD's (1600watts) and the given power at 1ohm will push the Q's (2000watts). Just have to see what subs my budget can hold. Thanks for the input...//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Any other opinions before I start looking for one...

i know that 1 off a 12v walmart batt does 600w @50hz wired to 2ohm with a imp rise of

6ohms

and this same install wired @1ohm does 1400w @ 50hz imp rise was 2.2ohms so it does decent real power and you might get 2000w with a good batt wired @ .5-.75ohms

Hmmm....

Well, like i said above. I have not decided what subs yet. So long as the amp will give me at least 1600watts@2ohms and 2000watts@1ohm, im happy...

It is a good amp......and im sure it will do around 1400 @ 2 and 2000 @ 1

Hmmm, i posted here to buy one. Anyone know where I can get one resonably priced?

Cool, Im looking for one now...

I was also recommended the Planet Audio amps

After doing more seaching and reading I really need to be stable at .7ohms to power 2 15" dual 1ohm Fi Q's. I hope this thing will run at .7ohms daily, lol...

Why would it need to be stable to .7ohm ?

Don't confuse the DCR (Re) with the load the amplifier will actually see.

did you use proper equipment to get a true RMS reading? or did you just read the voltage and go with the ohm load? because when there's power going thnes moving, the resistance changes ALOT and just going off voltage and ohm load isnt accurate

and my a3000db on a good electrical kept up with my kx 2500.1 off a 12v electrical. both are great amps. if you can afford the kicker it's worth it, but if you dont have the money the PA will give you very close results( probly closer results than any other amp in that budget range).

you can expect at about 2kw off 12v with the PA
