Gold Member Username: Safe_crackerChicago, IL US Post Number: 3759 Registered: Jan-06 | Well fools I finally did it, I blew my big expensive DD Z1a and because I sold all my backup sh!t I am miserably bassless. I was told not to run the amp on a 16V system but I tried it anyways and even modded the amp, well on a full charge and 1ohm load my big baby let out the poof of death, so gotta rip it all out to get new stuff in so might as well be now! I will take pictures as I repair the amp.. Polo. |

Gold Member Username: CarguyPost Number: 6609 Registered: Nov-04 | I think MA had an amp that ran on 16v - 17v. Of course they could've lied since not many people have 16v+ in their car. |
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 3870 Registered: Jul-06 | Yeah the HK4000d is said to do 4000 watts on 17 volts. But of course MA audio's quality is crap |

Gold Member Username: Th3pwn3rPost Number:... Post Number: 5691 Registered: Jul-06 | "ive seen a memphis 4kw on 18v .. idk what was done to the amp tho" Nothing.They can run on 18 volts. |
Gold Member Username: CenusOhio Post Number: 3852 Registered: Jan-05 | "now the azzhole is crying" have to agree, i remember when polo would post in random people threads about how badazz his sh1t was and how everyone else had crap, now look at ya hahaha i find this very funny, and this from a person who talked sh1t about the warlord/cactus/ and atomic 5k amps. |
Gold Member Username: Th3pwn3rPost Number:... Post Number: 5692 Registered: Jul-06 | What exactly did he say about the Atomic?I don't think he talked sh1t really but I think he said his Z1a was better which it is but he modded and ran the amp on 18 volts,things happen. |
Gold Member Username: Extrmndor3Post Number: 7120 Registered: Feb-06 | he did talk shyt... even went to cry with his g@yFriends a.k.a the fan boys.. ahahahaha..... i dont care abotu what he did to his beast of an amp... he was laughing at me for buying expensive and high power amps and saying ima noob because i dont even the charging system for them hahaha look at you now.... |

Yea but you know what?Polo can afford to buy a brand new one of those amps if he wants to.The guy has his own place,his own business and supports a family and can still afford expensive car audio.How many of you guys can say that? |

Gold Member Username: Th3pwn3rPost Number:... Post Number: 5697 Registered: Jul-06 | Where are his posts talking crap?I dont' recall what he said? |
Gold Member Username: CenusOhio Post Number: 3857 Registered: Jan-05 | right well the search feature sucks on this forum so i'll giva the jist of it, some kid came here asking about his hifonics amp, i told him what i thought, then polo posts saying hifonics is complete garbage then posts a pic of his DD for some reason, then states how good of amp he has. and thats just the one IM refering to im sure he's made more azzhole comments in the past. |
Gold Member Username: Denali_on_22sYou can call me Scroog... Post Number: 3065 Registered: Feb-06 | um.. you're pissed he was showing a kid talkin about hifonics a real amp? |

Gold Member Username: JkidderGunshine , State Flawda Post Number: 2559 Registered: Nov-05 | didnt teach me a lesson, i cant afford a z1a anyway... also polo posted a pic of his dd guts in robs atomic 5k thread |
Silver Member Username: ShadeMoxee, Wa U.S. Post Number: 465 Registered: Nov-06 | i laff at the bandwagon of people who just now start trashing.....i don't recall any of these threads either of Polo trashing anyone. |
Gold Member Username: Th3pwn3rPost Number:... Post Number: 5699 Registered: Jul-06 | "also polo posted a pic of his dd guts in robs atomic 5k thread" So what's your point?Wow,he posted a pic of his amp in someone's thread it's the end of the f ucking world.You're all acting like little school girls,grow up.Is a Z1 better than an Atomic?Yep.Is a Z1a better than any Hifonics?I'd say so.Was the sh1t that Polo said untrue?I doubt it.Polo may run his mouth but I'll bet you he'd back it up too.I'm pretty sure anything he said about his Z1a being better than someone elses amp was true. |
Gold Member Username: CenusOhio Post Number: 3861 Registered: Jan-05 | one question if DD is SO good why did it blow? |

Gold Member Username: Th3pwn3rPost Number:... Post Number: 5700 Registered: Jul-06 | "one question if DD is SO good why did it blow?" Because it was not designed to run on 16volts(The amp saw about 18 volts) dumb a ss...duh,sorry Dustin but you deserve to be called that.You're posting in this thread and have no idea about that amp?Lame. |
Platinum Member Username: WingmanaliveA pic is worth 1000 posts!! Post Number: 11010 Registered: Jun-06 | That was posted as a general reaction to the thread, not intended towards anyone lol. Timing sucks here at E. |
Gold Member Username: Safe_crackerChicago, IL US Post Number: 3760 Registered: Jan-06 | THANKS ROB lOl Fact is the amp was NOT designed to run on 16V, at that voltage it was far exceeding its max current. Honestly I probably would have been ok on just 16V but ya they were fully charged at 18.3V so it just couldn't take it. I modded the amp by removing the overcurrent protection circuit this allowing it to destroy itself. Unlike human death, this isn't permanent! I will bust out the DMM, and O-scope find the bad parts and get to ordering. That 5200 actually cracked the front baffle of my Kerf box so I will cut and knock it out then get the new box ready for insertion. BTW LilKnob, when it popped I didn't even flinch let alone cry sooo STFU, lOl. The best news is that the 5200 held up, unlike the last POS... Polo |
Gold Member Username: JkidderGunshine , State Flawda Post Number: 2560 Registered: Nov-05 | its not whether or not its true its whether its needed to be said. if i posted pics of my apx's in other threads that said "type r or cvr" it would be pointless and not very nice of me. im not sayin he was bashing robs product, he was just outdoing it by posting pics of his own amp when no1 asked for it or cared for it. i have nothing against polo at alll.... he helped me thru pm's before and i respect him. just pointing out wat i see. |

Here is the thread beween me and lilBob > https://www.ecoustics.com/electronics/forum/car-audio/400268.html I am pretty sure there is no bashing in there, not by the very least. Rob is right, I am a grown azz man and can afford sh!t so if need be I will just buy another but I am not like that, I like to save money and I don't even wear jewelry, can't stand it. The DD Z1a puts its rated out, benched 5K at 12v and 1ohm, I was running 1.2 ohm at 18V so the output was just unreal, sounded great but opened up a whole new meaning to rattles . BTW once again to save money I will be repairing my own amp, learned a while ago how to so ya STFU b!tches... |
Gold Member Username: Th3pwn3rPost Number:... Post Number: 5705 Registered: Jul-06 | Yea...I'd definately take a Z1a over a knock-off Atomic.I hope you guys realize that just because certain amps share the same board does not make the amps the same.The components used to build the amp may all be of cheaper quality and they're probably not built as good as others.Also have fun getting a warranty on a no name/brand amp.If there's a manufacturing defect on an amp with no brand what do you do? |
