SQ 6ch. amp?

[West]

I just got a new MMATs but they retail at 1200...

Yes we neglected to mention the mmats. Another great choice, but comes with dat big pricetag.

Damn, this thread sure has piqued my interest. Just emailed Vertex about trading my DC 175.4 towards a Leviathan //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif

Hope you can work something out. They are b-e-a-utiful in more ways than one.

Sure are. I got big things planned for the next build //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif

O yes, you can do a lot with that zed. 3, 4, or 6 channels. Also 5 channels I believe.

Zomg so much clean power... Most people are probably only using about 1/3 what the amp can put out... or under.

At 1/2 power its cool as ice. Not a bit of heat....

I'm seriously considering the Zed, especially with the trade in program with Vertex

Personally, I'd look into a solution with more amplifiers. It seems a bit of a waste to spend money on "high power" 6-channel amplifier, then use two channels to power your tweeters. I'd look into using a cheaper relatively low power 4-channel amplifier to power mid-range and tweeters, and use something bigger to power the mid-bass, or a relatively high wattage 4-channel amp could power the midbass and also subwoofer with the other two channels. Alternatively, you can go with a 4-channel amp to power mids and mid-bass, and throw in a cheap 2-channel amplifier to power tweeters (e.g. Boston Acoustics GT-275, if they're still sold). Wiring and fusing the wires can get a bit messy. However, if the complete system could be built with just three devices (2 amps + DSP, or just three amps), I'd take this route. Wiring and fusing for three devices should not be too bad. Take a look at the fused 3-way power distribution blocks from knu.

PS: Also take a look at SoundStream STL6.620. Two channels are rated 2x100watts RMS, and the other four are 4x60watt RMS. I have seen a test that showed that the test amp provided more like 4x70watts + 2x 130watts (all at 4ohm).

The reason for the 6 is just that, I'm planning on a 3way front plus subs. Your option would mean three amps and I'm also running an ms-8. I have done it like that and it's a big mess. Want to change it up a bit too
