Williston Audio Labs what is a good amp for a jl w7 13 rated for 1500watts I don’t care if it’s jl or not just preferably looking for a cheaper side amp to do pretty much the same power needed
Good evening sir, what amp would you use for 4-15L7 in ported box . I have mech man 350 amp alt with 3 yellow top batteries will be changing them out this summer with new batteries from JP. I already have kicker 4 ch for mid's and 2ch Rockford for highs was thinking about adding 1 more alt for just the subs with 3 batteries just for that amp. I want to go crazy loud this summer. I have my doors being fiberglass to hold (6) 8" for mid's and 4 super tweets on each door. With 4 tweets on each pillar by the windshield and all of this is going into my Tahoe with air bags to hold the xtra weight
Have you ever thought about doing a “best of the year” and “worst of the year” amp test video? I love your videos and I actually ended up watching your review on a kenwood amp I was eyeing before buying it. Just might be helpful for new viewers as a reference.
Just bought an ignite 3000 watt amp due to a review you did on one. It definitely bumps my little 10 inch. I bought a cheap sub in a box for $169. It WAY out performs my 2 12 inch kickers and puts just a 10. It's a Skar audio 1200 watt. It's breaking in now and starting to scare me a little. Makes me wanna buy 2 of their top-o-the-line 18's. Was skeptical but I'm a believer of this new brand. Jesus! It's Badass!
Hi. From what I've heard and seen for me it sounds and behaves like an A / B class amplifier. The power of 8000 W I think can be obtained dynamically with 0.5 ohm or less. It's really huge and doesn't seem to have very good or expensive parts but I think it's worth another chance :)! Peace
400 amp draw, man your gonma need a new alt 359 + plus lithium bank or four just to get 3000 w or the five dynamically? I hear ya though, 260 price is pretty rad.
i have this amp on 5 soundstream 12s and it slams , 3 batteries total on stock 160 amp alt and full tilt never drops below 13 volts , i think its a steal for the price !
I'll keep running my deafbonce 4k at .5ohm, absolutely not 1 single issue with it or my aak-200.4d.. both are awesome amps and have been very reliable.. my 370a mechman keeps them very happy at 15.2v, the 4k is powering my single deafbonce sa312 d1 at.5ohm daily.. such an amazing sub, and takes well over 4I rms easily, I've never once smelled any coil smells.. great American made 8 layer flat wound coil
Let me tell you Big D. I've never felt so good about spending money until I purchased a Focal FPS 4160 and added Morel Tempo Ultra 692's. This combo is BEYOND words!!
Williston Audio Labs I have a 2006 Yukon Denali XL. I like deep low end bass. I want 8 inch subs to allow cargo space. How many and what brand name would you recommend? I have a kicker kx 1200 and 4 channel kicker kx 650 for mids and highs. Sorry I know a lot of people like you opinion but just asking. Listen to rap music mostly. Again love your videos
Isnt that thing gonna get hot as Balls with that efficiency? How in the world are the Heatsinks under the Mesh panels supposed to dissipate thousands of Watts? I see nothing but a fire Hazard.
People dont realize that when you go cheap on an inefficient amp you spend more on electrical support. Research is great. Glade you help people make better decisions. Although some will see that near 5k dynamic and still think it's great. Well you will need the support of an 6k amp to get 3k.
Nada que ver, la carcasa sí, porque es de la misma fábrica china, pero la placa es totalmente distinta. La rock series 3000 es una sola placa más parecida o casi igual a la del belva 5000. El rock series predator si es un diseño muy similar al gravity (dos placas por dentro) pero es de mayor potencia que éste, tiene más transformadores transistores.
People may want to double check, but those warranty seal things are only for countries other than the U.S. you see the same tthing in computers and it's been fought in court due to self repair laws and they can't be enforced. As i said, check before disputing, not sure if this is all of the U.S.
I beleive it is 2 1500s built together , that would explain its crappy effiencey along with cheap parts. Thanks for testing it out , ive been wondering about this amp for a while now.
Williston Audio Labs It’s another great video Big D Wiz, I will admit you’ve perfected your art! I don’t know if you know how much the car audio community appreciates you for all the great amp tests your do. Not 1 but 2 thumbs up! 👍👍
“I know this will probably get lost in the comments below, but sometimes when I am home alone I like to go out in my garden and cover myself with dirt and pretend I am a Carrot.”
Any sub. A typical car subwoofer in a ported enclosure is going to be 10 or 20% THD mechanically. So the extra 1% or so that’s being added by the amp isn’t going to make a noticeable difference.
Over in the back woods next the the Blair witch house, thats where you find the only licensed gravity audio installer....lmao I love watching these videos! as always we really appreciate you exposing all of these companies for what they really are
Yeah I appreciate you running a test on this app 8000 watch as a stretch but 3000 Watts with a lot of batteries and alternator well it is what it is you still have to upgrade if you want lots of Watts
Well if it's capable of producing close to ~4000 watts with the dynamic test, at 50% efficiency, then you double that, and you get ya magic 8000 watt :) its CONSUMING 8000 watt... they didn't specify it could output 8000 watts (but if your gonna be really nitpicky it does that as well, shared across usable power and heat).
HiFonics did that with the Colossus back in the day, but that was two quality Zeus boards in one amp, and each board was separate. This though... I'd spend my money on the Smart 3.
D3M3NT3Dstrang3r Thank you sir. I'm glad to see there are people who understand SMD is a component mounting process vs those who see SMD & immediately assume it's a Steve Meade product reference....
Big d wiz man i gotta old school kicker impulse ix 406 i cant find much info and i cant find the ratings for this amp i was wondering if u could dyno this amp man so i know it is a mids and highs amp or if it could push subs when i ask ppl its either ya itll push em no problem and so e say its not an amp that runs enough power to push subs so help me out please big d whiz
that is so coool that there are people like you,that callout the BSER's that i wish would stop this BS about wattage,and i just love that dyno that you engineered.keep up the honest work,peace out.
Oh regarding the previous comment I forgot to add RMS, that's at least 2k watts . But only uppercase RMS lowercase rms only adds 752 watts @max rms cea power level so it's at least !OVER 9000 !
I dont think the smart 3 puts out as much power as the warzone dynamically but i couldnt see it lasting a week for someone looking for something in that price range, most guys wanting a generic amp that claims 8k will end up running it on stock alt, probly 4guage wire and a boss or power acoustic capacitor or the cheapest walmart car battery and call it good.
I love your opening theme song big D. Who is it? Love what your doing. Keep up the great work. Stay safe and healthy sir. Thanks again for the old school content.
If your even considering Gravity products that’s mistake #1 it’s a “flea market” brand. I took a chance on Brazilian audio namely Stetsom I’ve had there 6k 2ohm export like does great I have there 8k 2 ohm export line great as well and to tell ya the truth the 6k pushes almost as hard as the 8k but of course the 8k when pushed is stronger but if we are splitting hairs and your on a budget the 6k export either in 1 or 2ohm is a solid buy. My sub builder says many of his customers are getting Taramps and having good luck with them. He also said the taramps are a bit bigger then the Stetsom amps and Stetsom are about 8-10% cheaper to get though you don’t get the remote clip light but the Stetsom has it on the amp itself. Get a bigger name brand amp and some batteries you can’t make power without power. I trust U.S alternators and XSpower battery’s And super caps imo of course. Do it big D DO IT !! :)
Just for a quick burp for spl that thing kinda slams. oversized alternator and 2 extra batteries. Get 4 of those amps with 4 15s you could probably pull 162 spl db.
I requested 1st on your Facebook page.....glad u tested it...cant wait to see results...probably not terrible for the price....no way in hell 8000 watts lol
Sorta looks like they were loosely basing their build off of audiopipe, also that remote knob has an audiopipe'ish look to it. Thanks for the great review and test👍 one can definitely do better in that price range.
I mean for new amplifier that price isn't superhigh by ANYMEANS it's kinda low actually, but anyway for me this amp seems like "Entry amp to car sound" i was expecting somewhere between 1500rms-2000rms 2ohm, but it did pretty good job, if we just look rms watts... 👍
@@nicholascortez728 his test showed it did 5k still not 8k but that a lot for the money. should just put 5k on it. still would sell just as well. maybe better as more people would think it could for the price
I've been wondering about those gravity amps for awhile. They look pretty legit but.... Adding this at the end... I've been wondering about that pioneer amp too! Thanks Derek!
Please dyno 2 Ignite 6k amps linked together. They can handle 1 ohm no problem. I have them pushing 9 pyle 15s sealed. I curious about the power I'm getting. At $100 each it's the best bang for your bucks period.
Odd those full bridge linked amps always are inefficient. Dual supply instead of running say 100v +- on rails its 55x2 supplys and stacked after output section usually at best you'll see 60% .
Big D u should look at there new line I believe it's the same boards as sundown sfb line n sound digital line they also have a pretty beefy sub out also that ships in a wooden crate they have 3k 5k and 8k
We ..we....we want you to dance boom booom boom magic mike drop them records magic mike. Thanks for showing the pioneer results that's the amp i voted for.
@@wal and i LOVE. Hearing the bass only songs cause i like figuring out what song it is. DJ Magic Mike was my first intro into bass. And I actually remember the rap station here in Dallas playing Feel the Bass 3 and Do you like bass and Feel the beat!!!!!!💓💓💓💓💓
Half way on this vid and the number from this amp looks iike it is great for a comp burmping only for high spl. But it is not a musical amp on low end bass songs/decaf/OVERHEATING ISSUES AS WELL :/ Hmm we can call this one a "Ghost Amp"
When I grow up I want to be just like you Derek a f****** cool badass dude even at an older age you are freaking cool man would love to have you as a friend might get tired of me being at your house though🤣🤣
@@meade9167 I do Steve you are legendary man. No need for introduction you know what I'm saying, you're a very recognizable figure in the sound industry. I'm pretty sure Big D Wiz is one of your biggest fans. Peace out bass brother✌
@@CJ-cu1ys you're funny telling Steve Meade to pipe down. But you have to admit even Derek Big D Wiz would say man you got to respect meade 916. After all he's helped out with the ability to dyno amps at the house and get true power ratings that right there speaks volumes🤣🤣 both of you guys got my respect thank you!!!!
Big d thanks a lot for throwing this in there i have one of these at my shop and am thinking of using this in my spl build for my mids n highs instead of buying an 9604 but yo ser this almost getting 400. Itll do for 8 6.5 4 ways
If you could find a shark shkamp-2500d I would love to see that on the dyno. I Stull have my one from my old setup and am thinking about using it again in a new build. I've look over the interweb for years and still no dyno test.
I really surprised that amp did anything Big D. Some of those brand names are names I haven't heard of and it really surprises me on what they put out.
Love the vids!!! Was thinks my about doing the same thing, but a bit different. I go shopping for amps all around Florida and other states....I find some goodies!
I'm wondering if that amp is having issues. 🤔Very strange for a class D to have such a low efficiency. I agree with you too. I'd rather spend my money on a Taramps before dishing out money on that one. Great video bro!!👌
