Taramps Big Boss 3k on 4 Fi audio 3.9 black neo 18s TESTING (La Taz)

[@joshuakemp1439]

That amp is a beast. The smart 3k started it all

[@evilinside5984]

@joshuakemp1439- If your talking about the "Smart type technology" to help with impedance rise, then no, Rockford Fosgate, and JL Audio had amplifiers that made the same power @ different impedances, years before Taramps.

No . The HD 3k I think put taramps on the map but the regular smart 3k was a awesome follow up amp to be released

Great amplifiers 👍🔈🔊🔉

[@Mr.boxxchevy]

I got one in my van. Blew all my 4 old-school orion xtr pro 12s with it, Wasnt clipping. Too much for them, i guess ended up swapping them for 4 SKAR EVL 12s but now its cuts out on bass heavy songs. Anyone got any ideas voltage does drop to about 12.1 at lowest not sure if that may be the culprit or the 14 gauge speaker wire running from the amp to the subs its ofc wire.

[@PRINYATIP]

I’m not an expert but I had a similar experience what you had. It turned out I needed a more efficient battery 🪫. I would drop to 12 volts as well. Once it dropped low voltage. The amp would go into protect mode. I was a noob back then. So I switched to a lithium battery! Fast charging and more stable voltage. Night and day difference. Hope you good luck ! Because I think that’s what your issue is. Not enough battery power to support the electrical draw

[@Mr.boxxchevy]

@@PRINYATIP imma have to look into a extra battery. I need to try the big 3/4 upgrade I do have a 320amp alternator on it currently

[@Mr.boxxchevy]

[@Tjcin513]

Your big boss didn’t come with a clip light ? Usually it’s in the wrap on the side with the speaker inputs

[@956Bassaddict]

I use the clipping light to set the gain. But on the big boss 3k amp I was having a hard time trying to make the clipping light to work. Maybe something is wrong with the clipping light on my amp

[@956Bassaddict]

Thanks 👍 they are both good options. But if you're going to be wired around 0.5 ohms, i go with the taramps for the price, and they are great fighting, ohm raise 🔉🔊🔈

@@956Bassaddict u did a video on the big boss 8 right how did it do 0.5 on that neo 4.11 did the sub want more or was it perfect, also Carcindo or taramps I seen video's which one sounded better

[@956Bassaddict]

@rubenavila8012 I did a video with 2 taramps smart 8k wire to 2 ohms each, and they did great. I wire a single smart 8k at 1 ohm on the 4.11 neos and is powerful enough to move those subwoofers. My smart 8ks are the 1 to 2 ohms version, the lowest i have wired those amplifiers was 0.8 ohms one on each 4.11 they work great they not even get hot at all. 👍🔉🔊🔈

[@adamw.6488]

solid amps, i got the big boss 8k on two 15" sundown XV3's right now.. too much power for them. throwing in my new deaf bonce 4515's in soon, probably need another 8k lmao

[@jorgem50]

Bro, i have 4 skar SVR 15s. Would that amp feed them enough power to make them bump real good?

[@956Bassaddict]

I think if you wire the amp to 0.5, the amp should make enough power to move your subs 👍🔈🔉

Hello, I have 4 12" subwoofers and they are dr 1600 watts per subwoofer, do you recommend it? Or do I use a bigger one??

[@956Bassaddict]

It will probably be enough power, but if you can try to get the 5k, it is better to have extra power or if you want to upgrade your subwoofers in the future. 👍🔈🔊🔉

[@chachayteti4life]

For the rca input, is it better to use a splitter to use both rcas or just use one?

[@956Bassaddict]

I have done it both ways. It will work eater way 👍

[@ThatsMrMark]

I notice you're cutting off while the amplifiers trying to perform. Seems like your wired a bit lowered in 0.5 ohms. Are you wired at .25 ohms and rising? What is each one of your crescendo amplifiers wited to?

[@956Bassaddict]

Yup, I wired the amp at .25 on that video. I wire the crescendos at .5 for burps and at 2 ohms for demos

[@ThatsMrMark]

@@956Bassaddict I figured that's what was going on. .25 normally shuts them down, usually resulting in fire and smoke. I rebuild these amplifiers all day for the company as well as out of warranty repair work. I try my best to explain to customers on how to keep their amplifiers in great working condition, from voltage, to impedance, to clipping and excessive clipping which I should have mentioned first. I'm actually glad to see that it continued to work after it shut down a few times. This is really the importance of having a great electrical to begin with.💯💯

[@josephhammond2557]

A normal smart 5k would be perfect and between 7-9kwrms. The big boss 3 will do OK though

[@evilinside5984]

@josephhammond2557- If used @ 1 ohm, then the regular= full range Taramps Smart amplifiers= (1 ohm stable), are the way to go. If wiring to 1/2 ohm, the Big Boss Bass, or even the Smart Bass amplifiers= (1/2 ohm stable), are the way to go. Many system's while playing music have 4x impedance rise. If this is the case, then a Big Boss Bass 5k, wired @ 1/2 of an ohm, would still produce rated power, rising to 2 ohms, vs a Regular=full range Smart 5k wired to 1 ohm, if the same 4x impedance rise occurred= 4 ohm power= 3k. An Amp Dyno is NOT a speaker, so just because the regular= full range Taramps Smart amplifiers show better on the amp dyno, doesn't make them better on a speaker. As most systems average 2x to 4x impedance rise as music is playing.
