I'm a big fan of a nice 5 channel amp that does good power. If this Amplifier is reliable, it's a great choice for most people. Great price for an amp that can do everything in 1 small package. Get 2 sets of components for the doors and run a single SA 15 in a ported box for bass, and thats an amazing stereo setup for most peoples daily driven vehicles.

Tony Damore explains how this happens and that is why he places EMI filters at the input of his amplifier as well as at the output of the amplification, a bad design or bad calculation in the filters causes this kind of noise.

Nice amp, I always been a fan of 5 channels. Idk if it is a coincidence, but I’ve noticed on these full bridge amps that from certified to uncertified to dynamic that there isn’t much increase like the Korean amps put out. The numbers are still impressive especially for the size and on some their prices.

[@kris-english]

She let the magic smoke out! The old Korean's would take 7v @ .025ohm, suppose that's the trade off for FB. It does over rated though and probably reliable too. Thanks for taking one for the team Big D.

[@kramnull8962]

He told someone else here, that Sundown is making it right. Which is awesome of them since it is their screw up anyways... You tell a bass head that 4 channels are 1ohm stable for 400+ Watts, you know there's going to be 6" subs hooked to the 4 channels.

[@scottjames3698]

I watched this video and immediately bought the amp. I swapped from a 4-channel and monoblock over to this one in order to save space. This amp is so damn noisey! It's got great power but the ground noise is brutal. I'm hoping I just got a defective unit and D4S doesn't give me a hard time about replacing it.

[@jerongoodin8869]

any idea how to fix that wilson audio labs said the same thing about it in the test

[@scottjames3698]

​@@jerongoodin8869 Its odd, I've had a dozen different amps in this car and none have had any ground noise at all. This si the only one. I added ground loop isolators to my RCA cables and it eliminated 95% of the noise. Its fine for now, but I ultimately won't keep the amp. Its just not that clean. Its sounds... fine? Just not as clean as my AB amps. I needed to temporarily replace a couple of huge, power hungry amps for a short period of time and this fits the bill. Its light weight, really powerful, and super efficient. If SQ is not your main objective, this amp is awesome for the price.

Could you do a Audio Apex CAB-22 I was lucky enough to catch the pre order sale on it and I have personally been blown away by the performance, sound quality, and power output of this amp (which I paid $200 for then after shipping and yada-yada was $237) and if you ask me.....WAY UNDERPRICED! *For example it's rated 1600watts rms @ 2ohms and so far my highest measured output was 1737watts @ 2ohms and the lowest I've seen it out out was 1594 watts rms sundown unofficials youtube did a dyno test buy you go more in depth then anyone else and I feel you'll like the amp soooo PLEASE!!!!! LOL

This should be interesting. Cheers

Ayeeee!!! And just like good ole full bridge tech it smokes when you actually push it. I'll stick with my salt amp. I paid up for a reason🤷🏻‍♂️i mean whatever happened to protection circuitry? Glad i got the memo tho

Can this run the sub at 1 ohm while the speakers run at 2 or 4 ????

Test our the Toro Tech R2 monoblock amp (Not the MR2 micro amp)

How would I wire up High SPL Single 12" @ 4-Ohm Enclosure that incorporates 4 High SPL 6.5" Midrange Wired to 8-Ohm, 4 High SPL Tweeters wired to 4-Ohm, it only has 3 input 1 for highs, 1 for mids. and 1 for sub. (WEIGHT: 78 lbs.)

Dyno the latest earthquake mini D series amp, just wondering if earthquake is still good like from the 90s. I have the D1000.4 190 wrms X 2 @ 4 ohm and I blew up a 500 watts max Kicker 15" comp single coil 4 ohm sub.
