I'm not under the illution that these are Fosgate or JL status but are they reliable and will they give me rated power? Thanks for any help given |

IMO you can't go wrong, 150$ for 1200wrms+ is a must, that's my opinion. It has dual power supply, the older 1200D came with one and did 1262w rms at 14.4V so you can expect more than 1K at 13V |

I just bought mine used for $80 to push my Treo SSI 15 so when it gets here I'll give a full report. Thanks again |

Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 5455 Registered: Dec-05 | for 80$, tell me which 1k amp can you afford? |

Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 8243 Registered: Jul-06 | You can't get a good quality 1000w amp for $80 how about that |
Bronze Member Username: 1ndatrunkTre4, NC USA Post Number: 25 Registered: Jul-08 | I've had my Lanzar for two weeks now and it is more than enough for my Treo. It totally has replaced my Rockford 800a2 and has to be at least 150- 200 watts stronger. I'm happy with my purchase. Julio, how do you Master/Slave those amps? I'm thinking of getting another one soon |
Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 5460 Registered: Dec-05 | YEAH MAN! that's the spirit haha, imo that's the cheapest way to get 2.5Krms all day long. Go to www.lanzar.com and download your model's manual, it's very explicit and simple. The info it's there i've seen it |
Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 5469 Registered: Dec-05 | M.S i'll give you some credit with profile, i bought an AP 1040 and it DOES GET HOT like MOFO, BUT! it does the job, very decent model and the manual is very user friendly. What i really hate so far, are pioneer REVS components 6.5, oh GOD they're so harsh i wanna stab them, really bad purchase there, i don't know why people like those components. |
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 8280 Registered: Jul-06 | Yep those Profile amps are famous for overheating. And yeah those pioneer components do suck, agreed. |
