Those who have benched ZED audio made amps...

How underrated are they usually? just curious because I have a zed audio made US acoustics 4050 that does 50 watts per channel, Im assuming at 12 volts.

So has anyone every benched this amp or a similar one to see what it actually does at normal operating conditions? Im thinking that maybe i should just keep it to run active with and sell my other amps (need the cash). Im guessing maybe around 75 per channel...

Thanks guys //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Carsound tested the Opti 100.4

Delvryboy claims to have measured the 200.2 at 1008w at 2 ohms bridged. It's only rated for 380 at 4.

US Ac.:

They look like they're from the same designer, that's about it.

yup, stephan Mantz designs the cleanest amps i've ever seen. Not all that random glue and wires everywhere like most amps seen nowadays.

The US Acoustics amp looks to be a cleaner layout, but I could be predjudiced since I own a USA 2300f by them.

Are the USX series US acoustics amps designed by Zed? I know the USA series are but what about the ugly blue cased USX series? There are a lot of them on ebay and I was thinking of getting a 4 channel.
