Is this a good amp? whats the actual output? i take it its not bridgeable at 2ohms

looking for a high power bridgeable A/B less then $400

# 500 Watts x 2 RMS Power @ 4 Ohms

# 1000 Watts x 2 Max Power @ 4 Ohms

# 2000 Watts x 1 Max Power @ 4 Ohms Bridged

# 750 Watts x 2 Watts RMS Power @ 2 Ohms

# Electronic Crossover Network

# Bass Boost Circuit

# Bridgeable at 4 Ohms

# 2 Ohm Stereo Stable

 
Blueish in color? Opti500?

If that's what it is then it's:

250 x 2 @ 4 ohms,

500 x 2 @ 2 ohms,

1000 x 1 @ 4 ohms.

Will handle 2 ohms mono, but no benefit.

They're not as over rated on power as everyone thinks. They do about 10% more power then rated. Solid built tanks is what they are.

I have an Opti150 just because.

No, it's an Opti500x2. New Optidrive, big and silverish/chome.

I have one, great amp. Lots of power. 4ohm bridged mono only.

 

Thats it! thanks! looks like this will be my new amp. my Rockford t5002 took a dump today //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif i did torture it for 3 years, not bad fora referb. oh well it was either get another t5002 for $200 or a t8002 for $375 or this lanzar for $250.. hope i made the right choice! 1300w is perfect for my 2 idq12s on the way.

another question the t5002 still puts out to the subs its just totally distorted sounds horrible. ive never had a amp do that they either stop working all together or not any ideas?

 
would it be better to get dual 2ohm IDQ12s and run 750x2 @ 2ohms each or get dual 4 ohms and run it bridged at 4 ohms?

 
other options are but i doubt any would put out any power close to the lanzar

HiFonics ZXi1308

Autotek AT1500

Cadence ZRS-3002 (way over budget)

 
Cool. I lost intrest after Laznar sold back @ '99.
I think it was 96-97, but the Opti's came from Zed until '03 although they claim to have quit building them around '00.

I just bought a Opti4x400d -- just looking for some garage time, gotta do a brake job too //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/mad.gif.c18f003ab0ef8a0d9c27ca78d77a6392.gif

 
how about the lanzar OPTI600x2HC is this a newer model? http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/ProductDetail.aspx?Source=googlebase&ProductID=16461

another amp option is the cadence ZRS-3002 and is less then $400 new also

# 4 ohm RMS Power: 2 x 300 Watts

# 2 ohm RMS Power: 2 x 600 Watts

# 4 ohm Mono RMS Power: 1 x 1200 Watts

OPTI600x2HC

# 2x300 Watts RMS at 4 Ohms

# 2x500 Watts RMS at 2 Ohms

# 2x700 Watts RMS at 1 Ohms

# 1x 1300 Watts Bridged at 2 Ohms

# Bridgeable at 2 Ohms

# 1 Ohm Stable Stereo

opti500x2

# 2x500 Watts RMS at 4 Ohms - ACTUAL- 400

# 2x750 Watts RMS at 2 Ohms ACTUAL - 770

# 2000 Watts x 1 Max Power at 4 Ohms Bridged ACTUAL - 1400

# Bridgeable at 4 Ohms

# 2 Ohm Stereo Stable

 
PWM is a bit more advanced power supply than a standard switch mode.

The use of PWM is probably due to the fact that a the HC amp will require more current than a non HC a/b, and definitely less than a class D.

I wouldn't say it makes it a better amp, but it does make it more expensive.
