New member Username: Tank6585Post Number: 10 Registered: Jul-06 | I was going to make the same thread but might as well post in here insted of making 2. So soundstream any good? |
Silver Member Username: Alexv305Tavernier, FL USA Post Number: 288 Registered: Oct-05 | I can get them both for around the same price. But I own a soundstream PCA2000D and it did put out 2000w RMS but I like how the Hifonics XX Hercules looks so does anyone know if it puts that out from personal expirience.. |
Bronze Member Username: Tank6585Post Number: 11 Registered: Jul-06 | I know a few people with the hercules and they had it benched, it put out more watts then it was rated at. It even put out its rated watts at 12v... just wondering if the soundstream is the same. |
Silver Member Username: Alexv305Tavernier, FL USA Post Number: 289 Registered: Oct-05 | i tested mine at 12.5 volts... and it put out 2000w RMS @ 1.4 ohms on the multimeter.. I never pushed it harder but i think it could have put out more...it never even warmed up the amp was soo cool all the time... |

New member Username: StereomanPost Number: 6 Registered: Jul-06 | Now I know why I don't go on these to give people advice. People are so on edge and offensive, why don't you just look at the pictures and believe what you see. I am not a salesman nor a fanatic, but if don't know what you are talking about then other people make choices based on other peoples opinions and you know what opinions are like? and everybody has one |

New member Username: MonkPost Number: 1 Registered: Jul-06 | please help!! I have a soundstream xta 880.2 hook up to 2 10" he2 sub. He2 sub at 2ohm @ 400rms each and amp output at 440 rms each channel @ 2ohm. Can i turn the output level and bass booster to the max? And well it fry my amp or my sub? Thank You! |
Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 1187 Registered: Feb-06 | your subs dvc 2ohm? and i take it your amp is 440wrms each channel, as in a two channel amp? if so you can't do it. a 2ohm dvc can only be ran at 1 or 4 ohm loads. and you never want to have your bass or gain turned all the way up, you'll clip your subs to death. |
New member Username: MonkPost Number: 2 Registered: Jul-06 | Thank You for replying ctmike. My sub is dvc 4ohm. 800rms @ 4ohm @ 1 channel or At 2ohm @400rms x 2 channel. If I can not turn it all the way up, Can you tell me what level can i adjust the output level and bass booster level and still get loud bass? I like to hear loud bass. Thank You! |
Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 1188 Registered: Feb-06 | set your gain to the preout volt of your hu, so if your hu is 2v, match your amp with that. bass boost, personally i don't use it, i prefer to leave it down all the way and use my hu for bass adjustments. but you can use it, just don't go crazy and max it out, try to stay under 1/4 way up is good. and for lpf try around 80-100 on that. |
