Blaupunkt made top end Car radio receivers and were stock in alot of Porsche cars back in 1985 .Installed one for my friend in his RENAULT LE-CAR...They were making car radios way back mid 1920s.

You made a great point. Back in the 90’s if you had a 400-500 watt system you were a legend. Also I remember everyone had a sealed box for their subs. I don’t even remember seeing a ported box. So when people say sealed boxes suck I am like wtf you talking about 😂

Lol! Yeah, I’ve had plenty of systems with sealed boxes that sounded awesome!

You have to remember that music back in the day didn't really have any strong low frequencies, like under 40Hz. So sealed boxes sounded just fine. I've been in car audio 30 years and only ran sealed and infinite baffle. Only recently have I been dabbling in ported boxes. Using aeroports to change the tuning and a DATS to confirm it. I think I'm a fan of ported.

TXP1.3500D is about the title belt holder for budget amp king. $107, about 1200w... still, currently $80 for that blau 3k isn't bad. I'm thinking the orion cobalt might be a little better quality for similar price.

Shit back in the 90s we had all kinds of cheater amps. This means they would say they were 45 W but they were pushing 150. You would have a 300 watt amp and that thing would be pushing near a thousand Watts. Or whatever the numbers were. They were always underrated. Not all brands but a lot of different brands did that

I wish you had mentioned that Blaupunkt went out of business a long time ago and another company bought their name. I don't know who, but I guess they really did boost sales by using that old company name. Same for PPI, Orion and a few others.

I bought one and they're really not a good bargain. They out juice when faced with heavy load. I think because the capacitors run drain just a little behind the load.

Blaupunkt was fairly reputable in late 90s early 2000s around me, not great but decent. I've ran atleast 2 set of there speakers, have a set of $30ish 6x8s in my truck doors currently and they're actually pretty decent. I was hoping to see 1100-1200w from that amp but dynamically it seems decent. Like you say would push 2 entry level subs good or 1 good 12 or 15 at 1ohm.

As efficiency goes: 62.7% @ 4 ohms 54.6% @ 2 ohms 49.2% @ 1 ohm That looks pretty bad for a class D amplifier. It may get warm or hot dissipating the rest of they power as heat at maximum volume. Does it pop the speakers when it is turned on or off? What's the temperature after, lets say 30min of use at medium power? As you mentioned in 4:13 the maximum input current is 120A so I would not stress this amp at 961W @ 1ohm because it drains 134.7A continuos
@410kane8 ай бұрын
Williston Audio said the same exact thing. He said that's class ab efficiency and that's not good for a class D amp
