**** that distortion light came on way before it clipped.

that's the dyno, not the amp. i've seen it blip early before

Uncertified. That wasn’t a blip.

The efficiency on that amplifier is not bad.

I was referring to the uncertified test where the distortion light was solid for a good 3 seconds as power kept rising.

@BOOMINGRANDPAWhat was that you heard about audiopipe amps overheating/having heat issues?

it's what many peeps said even on the apcle but most where apmi
.. these look like the have vents on top so i would think they'd stay cooler.. it did great, can't believe it did so well @1/2 ohm.. sad we may have to start recing these over other amps but going by dyno is all we can do unless we have owned something a yr or more..

ryan put the amp through the worst tests possible for an amp and both his apmi and apcle amps stayed cool so something's wrong with other peep's sh*t.

It’s a old board. If you expect good efficiency then you are not paying enough. And size.

I hate this part of budget amps. They are cheap power if you pay for the current consumption.

Peeps, HAHAHAHA, LOL.

That's the cold hard (but cheap) truth. Might as well invest in a power plant to run something like that Orion 2500 BigD tested.

These boards have proven themselves for almost 10 years. Great amps for the average user. Just dont run them .5 daily (At least i wouldnt) and have the power to use them and they are fine. The people that have complained about them being ****** are most likely 18 year olds with a 95 honda on a 60amp alt and 6 year old stock battery.
