Gold Member Username: AdddisorderWest palm, Florida Post Number: 1266 Registered: Jan-06 | whats the rms on those 400-600? might want to look at some PG amps |
|
Silver Member Username: Loc_outSanta Ana, Ca Post Number: 508 Registered: Feb-05 | RMS is 400 i plan on giving it 500. |
|
Gold Member Username: AdddisorderWest palm, Florida Post Number: 1270 Registered: Jan-06 | well jl 500/1, memphis has a 500rms amp, iv got a pg x 400.1 for sale. maybe a jbl600.1 |
|
Silver Member Username: Loc_outSanta Ana, Ca Post Number: 509 Registered: Feb-05 | Mat jbl 600.1 Does 300 @ 4ohms and 600 @ 2ohms. Can a 6ohm sub be connected to 2 ohms? |
|
Gold Member Username: AdddisorderWest palm, Florida Post Number: 1271 Registered: Jan-06 | damn i got carried away, forgot about the wiring issue thinking it was d4 d6 is going to be 3ohms wired in parallel so the jl would be a good amp, maybe a little pricy though the x400.1 will give you 425rms. other than that i cant really think of anything, hopefully someone has some more choices |
|
Silver Member Username: Loc_outSanta Ana, Ca Post Number: 510 Registered: Feb-05 | Yeah goal is to safe money and by 3 500/1. Mat how does the x400.1 perform? |

|
Silver Member Username: Loc_outSanta Ana, Ca Post Number: 512 Registered: Feb-05 | I'm trying to Buy a chrome PPI amp that will push all 3 but for now i will seattle for one 15. James what do you think about the PG amp? |
|
Gold Member Username: AdddisorderWest palm, Florida Post Number: 1284 Registered: Jan-06 | i really like PG xenon amps. good flixiblity for ohm loads. the x600.1 will do 800-850rms 14.4v the x400.1 does like 425rms at 13.8v. I like it i used to run my assassin 12 off of it and it pounded nicely. iv jsut upgraded to more power. |
|
Silver Member Username: Loc_outSanta Ana, Ca Post Number: 514 Registered: Feb-05 | Is it on sale? |
|
Gold Member Username: James1115Ct Post Number: 6901 Registered: Dec-04 | whats the fuse ratings on that amp Matt? the 600.1 |
|
Gold Member Username: AdddisorderWest palm, Florida Post Number: 1292 Registered: Jan-06 | i dont know becasue i dont have one. iv only used the 400 although iv talked to alot of people on ca.com about the 600 becasue i was going to get one. iv seen birthsheets that show they will do that power. also you can email PG and theyll tell you its cabable of that. some birthsheets say 600ish becasue the amps had weak solder points so after they were fixed they did more power. |
|
Gold Member Username: James1115Ct Post Number: 6908 Registered: Dec-04 | nice I didnt know they were that underrated. |
|
Silver Member Username: Loc_outSanta Ana, Ca Post Number: 516 Registered: Feb-05 | Mat is your PG 400 for sale? what do you think James? |
|
Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 2002 Registered: Feb-06 | i think mat has the xenon for sale. but if he has sold his i have one for sale also. |
|
Silver Member Username: Loc_outSanta Ana, Ca Post Number: 517 Registered: Feb-05 | How much? |
|
Gold Member Username: AdddisorderWest palm, Florida Post Number: 1294 Registered: Jan-06 | yeah i still got mine to i sent you a pm |
|
Gold Member Username: James1115Ct Post Number: 6933 Registered: Dec-04 | I have never heard anything bad about them man. If the price is right you should jump on it. On ebay you can get a used 500/1 fairly cheap so make sure the difference is pretty big. I would take the JL over the PG. If the PG 400.1 is $200 and you can get a 500/1 for $250 I would go JL. |
|
Silver Member Username: Loc_outSanta Ana, Ca Post Number: 518 Registered: Feb-05 | Mat i never got your PM |
|
Gold Member Username: TjmutlowPost Number: 3019 Registered: Sep-05 | use the PG 400 or 600.1 xeon series or the JL 500/1 whichever is the cheapest way to go |
|
Gold Member Username: AdddisorderWest palm, Florida Post Number: 1303 Registered: Jan-06 | oh gaycustics, well i could do like 145 shipped. i only ran the amp for a few months, its in prefect condition, only thing is on the top there is like a 1/2in light scratch that is only noticable if you look at an angle. iv still got the box and everything, ill try and get some pics up, whats your aim or email |
|
Gold Member Username: James1115Ct Post Number: 6979 Registered: Dec-04 | that's a pretty good deal. If you don't but it Loc I will I would like to test that amp out. |
|
Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 2017 Registered: Feb-06 | i have a 400.1 for sale james. if you want it you can get it. and i live in ct. too so it'll save you some money |
|

Gold Member Username: AdddisorderWest palm, Florida Post Number: 1340 Registered: Jan-06 | hey loc out i still got mine but if you want it email me at adddisorder AT aim.com or adddisorder is my aim |
|
Gold Member Username: RzarectorCoquitlam, Bc Canada Post Number: 1317 Registered: Dec-04 | pg 600.1 does a slightly more than rated, i cant see it doing 800 and over though |
|
Gold Member Username: AdddisorderWest palm, Florida Post Number: 1343 Registered: Jan-06 | then search for some birthsheets, or email PG and find a teck that knows what they are talking about. iv taked with some people that are very knowledgeable with amps and have used the 600.1 and theyve also said they can do in the 800s also there is a hack you can do with them and they will put out either 1200 or 1600rms i cant remember, but they will do it |

|
Silver Member Username: Loc_outSanta Ana, Ca Post Number: 520 Registered: Feb-05 | hey guys what about this amp Xtant 2200i? Specs are 100Wx2 at 4 ohms; 200Wx2 at 2 ohms and 400Wx1 at 4 ohms mono. These amps are stable to 2 ohms stereo and 4 ohms mono. |
|
Gold Member Username: AdddisorderWest palm, Florida Post Number: 1354 Registered: Jan-06 | thanks jesse you get the A for effort that i didnt have! the xtant looks like a good amp, only thing is it is going to draw more curent then the pg or another class D amp. depends on how big your stock alt is and how much total power youll be running |

Gold Member Username: DrivingrecklessNear tampa, Florida United state... Post Number: 2022 Registered: Apr-06 | LOL^^^ how modest |
|
Gold Member Username: Chaunb3400Huntsville, Alabama U.S. Post Number: 9581 Registered: Jul-05 | that pg is a bad mother.....800rms @4ohms... |
|
Gold Member Username: James1115Ct Post Number: 7049 Registered: Dec-04 | at 14.31 volts! it also says 80 amp max when it comes with a 60 amp fuse. Look into Daves(drivingreckless) amp loc it is practically new. |
|
Gold Member Username: RzarectorCoquitlam, Bc Canada Post Number: 1320 Registered: Dec-04 | ive got 4 of them and all the birth sheets are slightly over 600 watts at 4 ohms.. my birth sheets dont look like that one either.. how long ago did you get it? |
|
Silver Member Username: Loc_outSanta Ana, Ca Post Number: 522 Registered: Feb-05 | Xtant 2200i or 400.1 PG? |
|
Silver Member Username: Naledge503Portland, Oregon U.S. Post Number: 405 Registered: Jun-06 | I got that birthsheet from the caraudio.com forums, birhtsheet/benchtest thread. Post your birhtsheets on here. It would be cool to take a look and see the differences. Loc out. I say which ever is the cheaper of the 2. Both are good amps so which ever one that will save you a little bit of cash. |

Gold Member Username: AdddisorderWest palm, Florida Post Number: 1362 Registered: Jan-06 | MARK S - "ive got 4 of them and all the birth sheets are slightly over 600 watts at 4 ohms.. my birth sheets dont look like that one either.. how long ago did you get it?" yours is rated at 600 becasue originally there was a weak solder point on the 600.1 board so they tested with a lower output. the amps were all recalled right away and the problem was fixed. ONLY SOME OF THE AMPS GOT NEW BIRTHSHEETS the ones that did all put out 800+ so really your amp is still putting out 800+ even though your birthsheet only says 600 jesse - yeah thats where i saw them, just didnt feel like digging it up again iv posted it a ffew times here because everyone is always so sceptical. i also talked with a guy on there who knew a pg tech and owened tons of xenon amps so he knew what he was talking about |
|
Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 2986 Registered: Dec-05 | with a good charging system you will see 800w + |
|
Gold Member Username: RzarectorCoquitlam, Bc Canada Post Number: 1322 Registered: Dec-04 | interesting.. so i can change the fusing to 80 amps as opposed to the factory 60? |
|
Gold Member Username: AdddisorderWest palm, Florida Post Number: 1401 Registered: Jan-06 | not really sure about the fuses, i havnt heard of people chaging them to 80 but maybe. you might want to email PG first. |
