Don't expect anything near what it claims to do....Pyle makes absolutely horrendous products

Save your money and buy a good amp. That amp will give you about 250x2 and thats it. Pyle makes junk, they're in the same category as pyramid and legacy. Need I say more.

I used to test Pyle and Lanzar gear. Don't do it!! If you are looking for something at a good price go with Audiopipe GM-4CLD Mono Block Puts out a true 1650 watts @ 1 Ohm. It was tested by USACI to put out 400 watts at 12.6 volts 4 Ohm. http://www.ultimate-sounds.com/audiopipe/gm4cld.htm You ca nget it from these guys. They haven't updated their site since the amp was last updated.

I've never had any trouble with Lanzar at all

I was refering to the Pyle Amp he had posted. Sorry, I should of been more spacific. Lanzdoes make good amps, but the new rack mounts are rated a little on the high side.

 

[DaBaller504 10+ year member]

Ihave heard nothing but good reviews about the rack line.

I tested a D3000M and only got 2600 watts! Other have claimed to only get 1700 out of the D2000. Again the amp I tested was the first revision, and changes have been made since then. Dominic out at Lanzar said the problem was rectified.

 

[DaBaller504 10+ year member]

I've heard that too but after the changes ive heard they produce what they are rated at. Good changes were made.

They are supposed to do well now! But they sold tuns that weren't. That is the only real flaw in our industry, we are the real R&D guys. When problems come up we are the ones to find them and report it. But, thats all manufacturers.

I see what your saying. But for the most part I have been a fan of Lanzar. Currently installing a 1500D.

Wher do you get your info from on Lanzar? Every article I have seen from reputable top installers and techs have said garbage in and out? I seen these things benched at half what they claim for power and also terrible specs on efficiency and so on.

I was sponsored by Lanzar, and Pyle for 3 yrs. I took product I get from them to a private electronics firm in Frederick Maryland and had everyting tested. When the rack mounts were first released they did poorly, but Lanzar has worked with the manufacturer and resolved alot of issues. More resently the amps tested very well! I never claimed their efficiency was great, but it is better than most. The amps were tested at 14.4 volts .05 THD, full sweep 20Hz-20KHz, 1 Ohm load. The D2000M tested at 1950watts, and the D3000M tested at 2875 watts. Lanzar will never out do their older Opti series amps in my opinion, but hey will keep trying.

I am currently sponsored by Audiopipe, and have had their amps tested in the same way. They advertized the amps at 1200 watts, but in the testing a 14.4 volts we got 1648 watts. They rated their amps lower than they were for the top end. Which is better than over rating. The GM-4CLD is a great Mono Block sub amp, and for a great deal less than most. You can generally pick these up for around $350.00!!!

I never really believe everything I read in Magazines, and on-line reviews that accept Payments for advertizing. How honest would you be about a product if they were not paying you? And how honest would you be about a product if you were receiving payments for advertizing?

I worked in the radio Controled car industry for many years and saw the same thing. Even when we released a product before testing was 100% complete, magazines we advertized with gave us great reviews. We knew better, but also knew that by the time a review was actually printed and sold we would have our problems fixed. Hell, we had a 3 month lead on the publications.

Hope this answers your questions!

where's an 'owned' pic when you need one?

MA i dont know where youre getting your info...but 1)its bad information, and 2)you need to be more open-minded. i have also heard nothing but good stuff about the rack series...over on the SPLenduro forums they tested one against an earthquake d2 and matched it watt for watt for hundreds of dollars less.
