AD-1 Amp Dyno NVX NDA105 by Jones Subwoofer Solutions JSS *CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT!*

[@neonpeonu]

I appreciate your videos, straight and to the point. No corny jokes or stupid cutaways…none of the “dummy” nonsense. Thanks.

[@nickn7939]

i hate those williston vids for that reason, i used to watch him but he got annoying.

[@emmittbishop4783]

I actually had 2 of these till I upgraded my subs and switched to their full bridge 3k. I ran 1 at 1 ohm on a pair 1200 watt VCW's and if performed perfectly. NVX makes solid products as far as I've experienced and the prices are not ridiculous.

[@Delta132]

The timing of just now looking for a dyno of one of these and you posted this 6 hours ago is insane

[@slickwillybudgetking]

These are probably fine for the daily. Can't really compare to pure resistive load, and very well could be a fluke in any chy nah component amp. This one on sale or coupon for $180 is nice, but that new stinger 2k is a better value. Nice video Jason 👍💥

[@Facekicker]

I am definitely at fault for this one.

[@BDauto86]

Idk when you get around that 180-200$ there's quite a few solid options. IMO it comes down to your preference and warranty/customer service. I'd prob take the Recoil 2500

[@jorgem50]

I bought this on sale a couple months ago for $149

[@onesikm3]

Yup that stinker 2k is definitely bumping and it has more to go than what my car can feed it lol. If I turn it up too much it muffles the bass my cars interior lights all dim the poor alternator is only rated for 80amps 😂 race car package technically they intended this car to be the lightest of all models so I’ll need to get the standard model alternator which is good for around 200 amps lol

[@joshholden8561]

Surprised me on this 1 not gonna lie nvx has been super solid on everything ive had. Their ofc wire is great the vc subs are really clean and there capacitors power banks are really stout.

[@mcdizzle7740]

I'm currently run a NVX NDA104 pushing 2 Q Power Deluxe 15s wired to 1 ohm and it slams. I know these subs are trash but I got them for free ...the amps rated at 1500watts RMS @1 ohm. Id like to see this amp on a Dyno to see what it really does.

[@ederreyes3612]

Ive ben running mine at .5 ohm load for a couple months now no issues what so ever only went into protect once after 45 mins of full volume because it got hot maybe some fans could fix that issue

[@joshholden8561]

Was those blown power supply fets irf 3205 ? Or 200n fets?

[@Stay-Loud]

I agree, I don't believe the amplifier would pop in real-life play. Only if you completely wired it below the dirt say .25 ohm. Can you dyno Marts Digital 13.5k please? Or any of their MDX line of amplifiers. I seen parker had his 16k on the amm-1 but I'm curious to find out what they will do on the dyno. I appreciate you bubba!

[@Facekicker]

I'm trying to find a few Marts amps

[@themantheman-vo7wd]

[@Ninoo187]

So glad i went with the stinger 2000, just because of your video. I bought 3 year warranty just incase lol. I was hoping to see the NVX not blow up.

[@Facekicker]

Glad I could help!

[@willsteele9249]

That's crazy the damage!

[@mcdizzle7740]

What's the recommended fuse size for this amp?

[@stephenbay9564]

I am confused here regarding your numbers for efficiency. Let's look at the 4 Ohm cert. test. You state 87% efficiency. How did you calculate that? I see 838 Watts out, and 14.58 volts at 75 Amps in. Input power = 14.38 Volts x's 75 Amps = 1,093.5 Watts. Efficiency is Output power divided by Input power, so 838/1,093.5 = 76.63%.....and you carry over the same "error" with the other tests. For the 2 Ohm you state 81%, and by calculating the numbers for this test as I did with the 4 Ohm one I get 72%, and you show 81%. Could you please show how you did your calculations?

[@elcomandante9299]

One or both of u didn't major in math.

[@hcho8164]

Better circuit protection would have made this more expensive. But defeats the point of saving money in the short run. I heard full bridge amp has a problem with low voltage failure. Did your voltage drop too low after several test runs? I suspect this amp is not for stock car battery.

[@Facekicker]

Definitely was not a battery issue, I support up to around 15k with my bench setup.

[@BigMerc91CMDNJ]

I wasn't expecting that reaction I thought you got shot 😆

[@commonsenseisdeadin2024]

Why do you pull the amp clamp after certified? Always meant to ask that, just curious..

[@JasonWW2000]

You can't get an accurate reading on the uncertified and dynamic with basic clamp meters. He would rather remove the meter than confuse people with the wrong readings. To get accurate measurements you'd need a much more expensive test rig and probably shunt style measurement devices.

[@Facekicker]

Basically what he said. In certified mode, I get voltage, wattage, and current all locked in at the same moment (when red light comes on and dyno stops reading). In Uncertified with the dyno showing peak numbers, using the clamp would be inaccurate/difficult to time readings properly.

[@MacNifty]

I seen only the one test at two homes, fourteen volts and hit fourteen hundred watts ....good enough.

[@cartycartyamplifiersalesrepair]

Great video like always keep up the good work Sir Hey send me that Amplifier that just got blown up wow

[@Hammerback0]

Watch the distortion light when it burns up. Almost 4 seconds of straight clip😂.

[@Facekicker]

Yeah i knew it was clipping but was watching the wattage instead... Usually the numbers stop climbing if it's going south but this time they just kept going up.

[@TheGodofSEO]

I don’t think the normal use would make it go boom either. You were rocking that full tilt and beyond. Seems like a great 2200 watt amp below $200. Solid

[@chuckholmes2075]

what are you smoking dude? is this the first Amp Dyno you've ever seen? THIS AMP IS TRASH!!! the real world is more harsh than a resistive load. They're 1000's of lesser and better amps that pass the DD1 with flying colors and no burnt flying FETS

[@guysgt5003]

There was nothing demonstrated there that says solid. LOL! You must work for them. Made in China means zero tolerance to stress. Wouldn’t buy this amp. If it was the only option available.

[@AKASHAXJ]

Bump, bump, bump, another one bites the dust!!!!!

[@joshTheAudioGuy]

That blew on well over 14 volts those output fets are being ran to their ceiling voltage they need better ones where they are not ran so hard flat out. I dont think u ran it hard to be honest yeah u was clipping it but that should not have caused what happened being ran right on the line of rail voltage cause the issue .

[@Facekicker]

That was a HARD clip.

[@MrShitrope]

never seen mosfets get launched off the board like that dam!

[@beemackin2316]

Good 1 indeed

[@kyletimmins7331]

Problem with a good number of full bridge amps is they use the sound digital boards with little protection circuitry. Sundown SFB, NVX NDA, Soundqubed U series, etc all use it. Barevids does videos on them and its amazing how they get away with it. They're excellent for the money when used lightly but when clipped bad this happens. This is why Taramps is leading the pack when it comes to full bridge amps.

[@commonsenseisdeadin2024]

This isn't a full bridge and the topology really has nothing to do with it. The "soundigital" boards you speak of is actually Chinese clones OF the soundigital amps. Clip an amp like this and you're going to be in for a smelly good time!

[@kyletimmins7331]

@@commonsenseisdeadin2024 I've clipped a smart 3 a couple of times over (during tuning and testing)and the worst thing I've had happen is it went into protect and never came out. That was my mistake and I've learned after that. And yeah I forgot to mention the Chinese copy part but it's still around the same design nonetheless with a slightly weaker protection circuitry system. Also just realized I've mistaken this for the XAD 😂😂

[@jermainephillips5179]

Not the amps fault.those amp dynos put serious strain and stress on amps.

[@JMoneyBassHead]

Any amp that smokes on a Dyno isn't made good. Idc what you say. If it's gonna smoke on the Dyno it's gonna smoke in your car

[@JasonWW2000]

​@@JMoneyBassHeadThat's not accurate at all. The amp dyno's use resistive loads so its an exact number. A speaker is considered a reactive load meaning the resistance is constantly changing based on the frequency. 1 ohm resistive is much more stress than 1 ohm reactive. Keep in mind that when wiring a sub to one ohm you have whats called box rise or impedance rise. The amp will never see that 1 ohm load, it will always be higher. The amp might see 1.5 to 3 ohm at the very lowest and at only certain frequencies. The rest of the time the resistance is higher like 5, 10, 20 ohms. You would also need to have the amp maxed out as it played its lowest resistive frequency. This is why amps last decades. Assuming you don't clip it, drop copper strands in it, overheat it or feed it too low of voltage. Those are the things that kill amps. In order to duplicate what happened to this amp you need to wire a load down to like 0.3 ohm and max out the power. Some people do this and blow amps. These people are taking the risk. It's on them. This is why the manufacturer tells you how low to wire the amp. If it says 1 ohm stable, they only guarantee to that load. I hope that makes sense. 👍

[@xaviermanning9311]

plenty sense

[@RyanBassForLife]

Amp looks like it couldn't handle the dyno 😂💨

[@MacNifty]

Well, to be honest, it's a fake Dino. It's a stupid test instrument and it's a simulation. It's never real, so we can't really ever count on these gadgets that are full of gimmick that nobody in the electronics business will ever touch. This thing is a magic box, gimmick trick. And this guy manages to get people to buy his box. That is so basic and create some benchmark for the world of testing amplifiers. And it's all bogus, it's a very basic.
