Silver Member Username: Dakangofkrunk16PLANET EARTH, FLA Post Number: 957 Registered: Mar-07 | or u can get one RF t4000 700 Atomic 5000.1 700 Atomic 7000.1 1000 |

Gold Member Username: 420alldaylongPost Number: 1594 Registered: Sep-06 | Powerbass ASA amps put out about %80 of rated power a good budget amp. Powerbass XA amps do rated power. Good amps |
Silver Member Username: Dakangofkrunk16PLANET EARTH, FLA Post Number: 974 Registered: Mar-07 | they mite be good but y get 4 of them when u only need 2 mem 4kw 900 for both and the 4kw does 5760 at 14.4 volts and 4800 at 12 volts at 80% effiecient but i think it is more Effecient Also Memphis > PowerBass You'll be gettin 2 1200 dolla amps for only 900 |
Silver Member Username: Dakangofkrunk16PLANET EARTH, FLA Post Number: 975 Registered: Mar-07 | "all 4 power bass amps" Trust me u will only need 2 4kw and be much cheaper and easier to install cant go rong |
Silver Member Username: Dakangofkrunk16PLANET EARTH, FLA Post Number: 976 Registered: Mar-07 | hornetsnest2k3@yahoo.com email him about the 4kw u wont be disapointed |
Silver Member Username: Dakangofkrunk16PLANET EARTH, FLA Post Number: 977 Registered: Mar-07 | if ur qorried about those subs not being able to take that much that is a lie they can easily handle that are they gonna be fully loaded BTL's P Chamfer Cooling 3rdMagnet HiXmCoil Depending on u plan to use it is up to u for Daily or SPL and Universal or not |
Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 4543 Registered: Dec-05 | Joey, do you have a review on those powerbass... cuz i think they're good rated. A link, or a good post from an owner? For example.. that 1500w model has 5x30A fuses.. it should be right in that zone, 1500-1600w. But IDK... |
Gold Member Username: 420alldaylongPost Number: 1596 Registered: Sep-06 | juliob That was from Powerbass and the local Powerbass dealers. I would put the ASA with the Brutus. |

Post Number: 311 Registered: Jan-06 | "the 4kw does 5760 at 14.4 volts and 4800 at 12 volts " Where did you get those numbers from? I'm all for the memphis 4kw, but those numbers aren't correct. And at what impeadance also? |
Silver Member Username: Dakangofkrunk16PLANET EARTH, FLA Post Number: 991 Registered: Mar-07 | 500amp fuse if 80% efficient 14.4 volt is 5760 1ohm 500AMP FUSE two 250's |
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Southeast PA Post Number: 2073 Registered: Jul-06 | Dude, if you don't know what you're talking about STOP POSTING and start reading. Everyone here (except you apparently) knows that you can't measure amplifier output based on fuse size, LOL. Those amps are known to do 4kw at the most at 1 ohm. And then there's the issue of them being destroyed by low voltage, I presume that's reason most competitors don't use them. |
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Southeast PA Post Number: 2074 Registered: Jul-06 | The calculation based on fuse size gives you the maximum amount of power it would be physically possible for a particular amplifier to produce regardless of the internal components, not how much it will actually produce. |
Gold Member Username: Dakangofkrunk16PLANET EARTH, FLA Post Number: 1008 Registered: Mar-07 | but it produces that amount its max wattage is its rms and yea i no that it poos at low voltage and is known to break but dont let it drop Memphis is capable im not gonna say that about any amp so yea i do no sumwhat im talkin about i'm sure there are better amps out there but my opinion from what i heard mem 4kw is really good Mem is underated |
Gold Member Username: Dakangofkrunk16PLANET EARTH, FLA Post Number: 1010 Registered: Mar-07 | but also u have to excuss me the onyl way i can learn is by sayin sumtin i think being rong and bein told what is rite but everyone here does it in a rude way Makin fun of the way i spell just go no post whore it is like this and id be like ok thanx but NOOOOOOOO it has to be like BLAH BLAH ur cant type BLAH BLAH ur dum or w/e Dont be D1cks cause bush is an @$$ and u dont wnat him to sit on u H A HA |
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Southeast PA Post Number: 2079 Registered: Jul-06 | " but it produces that amount its max wattage is its rms " Ummm, WTF? " Mem is underrated " Not by much. " 500amp fuse if 80% efficient 14.4 volt is 5760 1ohm " Show me a bench test of a Memphis 4kw doing that. I dare you. You really need to stop talking about sh!t you don't know and stop making blatantly inaccurate statements. |
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Southeast PA Post Number: 2080 Registered: Jul-06 | If you don't know something, then ask a question. That's what this forum is for. But don't try to give out advice if you yourself don't know the answer. |
Gold Member Username: Dakangofkrunk16PLANET EARTH, FLA Post Number: 1011 Registered: Mar-07 | somethings i no and some i dont What i ment by that is most amps have a max wattage and then they have a max RMS this amp just has a max RMS wattage |
Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 4545 Registered: Dec-05 | a friend told me about a 2 channel powerbass being overrated by 5watts only. He goes to caraudioforum. About memphis, just use it the way it's recommended. |
Gold Member Username: Matt12490California USA Post Number: 2292 Registered: May-05 | If I go with the way 'Post Whore' is finding watts, then I should be able to get more watts if I traded my 3 30a fuses with 3 50a fuses huh? Sweet! |
Gold Member Username: Dakangofkrunk16PLANET EARTH, FLA Post Number: 1021 Registered: Mar-07 | no cause ur amp isnt rated for that. Nice try makin fun of me but i neva said anything like that. I was told that is how u find the Wattage. I was rite but to a certain level How long are all of u gonna talk about this. It is ova move on i admit to makin a mistake |
Gold Member Username: Dakangofkrunk16PLANET EARTH, FLA Post Number: 1022 Registered: Mar-07 | And a second thing is, I mrntioned actually a really good amp , that amp would be way better then 4 power basses , Cause you would only need 2 of them. He could also save money by going with the MEM 4kw Sure it can fail if u have a voltage Drop bellow 12, but you wouldnt want that with any amp or sub hooked up. So i might have been wrong about the end answer to the calculation. The calculations were just tho and the amp i am pointing him towards is too. So in the end i just dont get you all You have to admit i am rite when it comes to that |
Gold Member Username: Th3pwn3rPost Number:... Post Number: 2316 Registered: Jul-06 | Dru,it is really hard to understand you because of how you type Any chance you could edit your posts and correct them at all?Then I'd be able to respond to more of your posts because they'd make some sense to me. |
Gold Member Username: Dakangofkrunk16PLANET EARTH, FLA Post Number: 1025 Registered: Mar-07 | wtf! In my last post i did my best i used Commas, Periods, Eclamations, i spaced the words out, spaced out the sentences. and i spelt good. I honestly don't see the difference in my last post between mine and yours |
Silver Member Username: KillswitchjdPost Number: 474 Registered: Apr-06 | is that a joke? did you f*ck up on that last one on purpose? and your wrong about the memphis 4kw. im pretty sure its 4000x1 at 14.4 volts and 1 ohm. like they said you can only calculate the max watts with the fuse sizes |
Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 4551 Registered: Dec-05 | Fuse sizes can give you an idea on what to expect. For example, you won't see a 1000w rms amp using 60A fuse. But, you can see 80A in 1000w rms, and 90A too. Remember efficiency, power supply and other components. But fuses can give you an idea. Remember that |

Silver Member Username: Waterboy2289Georgia, DiRtY SoUtH ... 2 18 SX w/ ... Post Number: 312 Registered: Jan-06 | I guess the bottom line Post Whore, is that you are a post whore. You need to try to limit your posting of crap and you should be alright. By the way, your typing is almost as illegible as lil rob's. Jake: If you are serious about wanting the hook-up on that amp, let me know and I'll put you in contact with the guy himself. |

Silver Member Username: Waterboy2289Georgia, DiRtY SoUtH ... 2 18 SX w/ ... Post Number: 315 Registered: Jan-06 | I was in no way trying to act like I know everything. However, I was lashing out against illegibility and post whoring in general. My issue is more with posts whores then Post Whore himself. That's the issue with this forum; people repeating what they hear from other people what they heard from other people and so on. It becomes a mass of un-credible information. It ties up the more experienced user's time trying to explain something 6 times and confuses the beginners who don't know what to believe. It's hard to get anything accomplished with all the post whoring going on. Jake: The address Post Whore listed is correct, so that's how I would contact Ronnie |
Gold Member Username: Dakangofkrunk16PLANET EARTH, FLA Post Number: 1040 Registered: Mar-07 | My name is post whore, I am not a post whore though. It mite be tru that some post i do are wrong. I also have alot of other posts where i have helped. I admit i was wrong on this one and apoligize. I heard this is the way from many people, should have researched it like most of the time, live and learn. In no way i meaned to cause confusion, for that i'm am sry, i thought i new. The calculations and the numbers were rite, but the fact behind it being RMS wasn't By the way known fact Nate so The memphis 4kw was tested 12v to be 4000x1 at 1 ohm, not 14.4 |

Silver Member Username: Waterboy2289Georgia, DiRtY SoUtH ... 2 18 SX w/ ... Post Number: 316 Registered: Jan-06 | Well like I said, even though I lashed out at you, you're not really the problem; we all make mistakes. I guess your name just draws a bit more attention than anybody elses. But this does not change the fact that there is a post whoring epidemic on this forum. Also, A++++++ on the improved sentence structure and grammar! haha |
