@itdoesntmatterwhatyourname6128 2 года назад

@Tiago Jose here in the United States there are so many people who hate on Brazilian & full bridge amps in general. Personally I love them & have had nothing but great results from my Taramps & full bridge amps. I have a Taramps Smart3 & a MD8000.1 and also have a Sundown sfb5000 amp which is a full bridge similar to Brazilian except the Sundown sfb amps are Chinese rather than Brazilian. The Sundown full bridge also get a lot of hate here in the States. I think most of the full bridge haters here in the States have simply just never owned a Brazilian or full bridge amp. Don't get me wrong their are plenty of people here in the States that love Taramps too. It just seems any car audio show or anywhere there's a lot of bassheads their will always be a big group of people hating on Brazilian/Full Bridge and cracking jokes at anyone using them in their vehicles.

@DoeBoy999 2 года назад

@@itdoesntmatterwhatyourname6128 it seems like a lot of people buy amplifiers for brand naming more than actual performance. The second any maker takes a design to China it gets duplicated then its just a matter of finding a cheaper noname brand that has simply gotten the chinese manuf. to provide boards. There is no protection of patents or IP rights at all over there for anything.

@itdoesntmatterwhatyourname6128 2 года назад

@steve clark you're right, the Smart3 is stellar especially for its small size. Everyone of my friends who don't know car audio all that well & just like bass cannot believe that all the bass in my system is coming from that little amp once I show it to them. I've been using my Smart3 in one of my cars for 16 months & I love it! The Smart5 BASS has been on my list of next amp to buy ever since it was released. Though I must admit that I thought this amp would do well on the dyno BUT I never thought it would do this incredible. I think it slightly surprised Big D. Steve I hope you get your Smart5 soon!

@georgesrisomsak9650 2 года назад

Man, that test at the end is the truth in ability and durability. If she was gonna pop, that should have done it. My smart 3K had been nothing but exceptional, tough as nails, protect light for the clipping indicator and all. Not just in the lane's either. Literally tough as nails in my experience, looks like this should be on par in that department. I've built some recent mid level setups with the stetsom and taramps, and they have not been noisy, blown up, or any problems at all. I'm doing a smaller build now with another set of stetsoms, the value for the $ is great. There's cleaner and better out there, surely, but bang for the buck? Brazilian isn't bad at all. User error is usually the culprit for blown equipment. I've played with too many of them, and haven't been disappointed yet. Maybe I'm lucky. They are small, make big power, and fits in small budget installs with space constraints nicely. Anyway, appreciate what you do for da peeps man, I'll be sending this video to a couple people that like loud, as this is one hell of a solid deal! 6k rated, clean, for $500 is nuts!

@jimbobdobbs1597 2 года назад

@@Only-Memories-In-The-End i've been confounded by this also.. but in reality we are talking about the extreme bottom of the bandwidth' 75 hz and down..i dont think theres much sonic separation going on down there. They wouldn't mix home stereos and almost every current car audio application if you could pick apart the sonic resonance that easily. Stereo separation would have to kick in up in the 400 hz range at lowest is my guess. We just dont hear well enough to separate that low a sound. Now i want to google the info since we are on it lol

I remember the early Brazilian amps going up in smoke pretty easily, and the micro-controllers used in them were not easy to get. Being I grew up repairing amps, I didn’t like the idea of running an amp I can’t get parts for. I don’t want to jump through hoops or have a paper weight in the event it blows up, or have to ship off to an authorized facility. I was considering a Taramps Smart 5 a while back, was thinking of selling some old amps I've had for years, but I felt it wasn’t worth the risk. Seemed the Brazilian amps always put out decent power, that was never the issue, just longevity / reliability wasn’t good on them. Maybe the Taramps are different.

Lol. Love the content as always. Was super impressed with this amp & its output!!! Taramps never disappoints. They’re pretty solid with all of their inventory that I’ve had the pleasure of hearing or running. My brother is an authorized dealer for them & the first & possibly only US Authorized Dealer of PRIDE AUDIO!!! Another Truly Amazing Company!!! Their products are psycho AF!!! Completely Brutal Bass!!!

I stand by the whole $10 per 100w. Taramps exceeds that immensely with their smaller amps, have 2 hd3ks that have been going strong for the pass year on some skar zvx 12s

I really loved the smart 3, have installed 3-4 of them with zero problems. I'm audio tech/installer, and saying that Ive installed one smart 5 and blew up as soon as I turned it on. So customer bought another one and barely turn up the system and goes straight into protect mode. I used two zero gauge ofc power and ground with two mesa 1200 audio batteries. Hopefully they've fixed problem by now. Cus I'd like to use two smart 5s in my own Setup

probably need more battery, my buddy has a smart 5 on 1 40ah bank of yinlong and a 270amp alt holds 13.5v+ over 14 driving its a beast

Bad installation , idiots usually blow these.

I prefer rca bass remotes. Especially since its sinpler to intercept the rca signal from your head unit than it is to run another wire to the dash.

@savionsmith7418 2 года назад

So doing 1 ohm tests vs 2 ohm tests this tells me the amplifier must really really like that area. It must be a balance of efficiency and the smart tech causing it to run better.

@joshholden8561 2 года назад

I know these are smart Amps but untill u run these amps urself it's amazing what these can do for ur money ill stick with my taramp people call fullbridge amps dirty power but forget their fav JL audio and many many others are just smart fullbridge amps. Awesome video Big D.

Taramps has made big strides and many people still have opinions of these based on models from 5yrs ago

I am glad I bought the last two I needed because they about to sell out, no Amp does this for the money, go ahead prove me wrong it isn't a 10k watt Amp but it is a reliable 6k

@sorrowsong4626 11 месяцев назад

the reason why they put the power inputs on top is because thats where the heat dump is in order to cool the amp. You need the juice to be flowing close to the heat dump.

@cali8221 Год назад

So which one is better the smart 5k or the smart 5k bass

@MyHairyChin Год назад

@@cali8221 hands down the bass line

@cali8221 Год назад

@@MyHairyChin man I'm still deciding but gotta get one by tomorrow...I keep seeing videos ppl say the regular 5k better and puts out more watts

@MyHairyChin Год назад

@Cali 82! 4 of my friends including myself have them... don't be fooled with the others, the smart 5 bass hands down gives the best rms clean to my 18s! You wont be disappointed at all!! Taramps nailed it with there smart bass amps

@Richtaco 2 года назад

I just decided to buy this amp a week ago and here you go gonna get these amps prices raised and units sold out. I hope you get a cut of each unit sold big d

@wal 2 года назад

I don’t get any cut unless you use my Amazon affiliate link. Go ahead and buy a fridge and other stuff before checking out too 🤣

@ICEMAN4471 2 года назад

Just ordered one to the UK ,nice upgrade for my 3k .. these gonna be like gold soon ... Unbelievable performance ...another great video.. why do you need two positive and two negative power inputs? Great video big D as usual 🔥🔥

@wal 2 года назад

I use multiple inputs when possible because my tests are resistive and pull more current than music

@johncoops6897 2 года назад

? _"why do you need two positive and two negative power inputs"_ ? Because it draws about 500 AMPS, and it's a damn sight easier to use 2 pairs of cables pulling 250A each compared to single elephant dick sized cables that handle 500A. And power needs Volts (as well as Amps), so whatever you can do to minimize voltage drop between your battery and amplifier will improve performance.
