I find that hard to believe..

come on now..

it does x2 its rated power?

maybe if it was struck by lightning or something...lol

 
heres another quote from Nick that is in the thread I linked to in my previous post

Are you saying I'm lying about 15kw? If so I will be glad to provide results of several of my competitors - just a quick looks at some of Willy's "Mr. No Walls" test sheet I see 220 volt and 67 amps which is just a little under 15kw.
Who are these few people getting less than 4kw at 1/2 ohm?

You need to catch up on some reading from past post my friend... Two people tested these things and got within 100 watts of each other...

7900 for on guy and

7990 for scottie johnson... I think those numbers are right.. Could be backwards

 
I will clamp mine tomorrow and let ya guys know... Im not goint to get 15,000 watts from mine but I should get 7500+ im hoping.... I have a Stock Alt and only 3 Stinger SPV70 batteries and a stock battery up front.... We will see

 
yo Korn how do you feel about these amps
Catcus 5k

Atomic 5k

same amps? i can get them around the price of these...
Both are great amps... Im pretty sure they use the same board so they do look the same but they prob use diffrent components.... IMO i would go with the ATOMIC but thats just me... I dunno if u know this but the IA 40.1 and the AB 500.1 share the same board also... I heard the only differance is the components once again...

Here are the AB 500.1 specs

Output Power 20Hz ∼ 250Hz:

1 x 1300W @ 4 ohms (14.4V -

1 x 2600W @ 2 ohms (14.4V -

1 x 4700W @ 1 ohm (14.4V - 1% THD)

1 x 5600W @ 1 ohm (16V - 1% THD)

1 x 7100W @ 1 ohm (18V - 1% THD)

S/N Ratio: >90dBA

Damping Factor: >200

Efficiency: >79%

Max. current: 435A

Weight: 16.5 kg (36.4 lb)

Dimensions: 25.6" x 10.2" x 2.6" (65cm x 25.8cm x 6.6cm)

 
Here are the specs on the Atomic 5000.1D and the Cactus Sounds 5K

1 x 3400W @ 1 ohm (12V)

1 x 5000W @ 1 ohm (14.4V)

1 x 5900W @ 1 ohm (16V)

1 x 7500W @ 1 ohm (18V)

THD:

S/N Ratio: >100dB

Freq. Response: 10Hz ∼ 350Hz (±1dB)

Efficiency: 86% (at 4 ohms)

Fuse: External 2 x 250A

Dimensions: 24.41" x 10.63" x 2.56" (62cm x 27cm x 6.5cm

 
the atomic looks promising

i may pick up one of those instead //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

but as usual, look further into both for some real testing

 
I would go with what can be repaired if for some reason it breaks down.

http://www.db-r.com/

There are certain brands we will take in ANY quantity of as those brands are the ones that we specialize in or dB-r is an Autorized Repair Center for those companies. Those brands at this time are Sundown Audio (Authorized), Incriminator Audio (Authorized), RD Audio (Un-Authorized at this time), Other "Clones" of those three amplifier brands, and Maxxsonics (Un-Authorized at this time).**Note we do not accept any amplifier larger than 3000 watts from any company at this time except the IA 40.1.

maybe look into sundown to.

Jake has always answered any questions I had as well as Nick at IA. both good guys imo

and not sure what happened with this

Make sure u pick up the newer model... I heard the older one didnt do rated power
