BOSS 4000 Watts is really and stupid rating but this amp is a realy nice amp for the price you pay It doesn't over heat and i get more bass than another system with 2 solobaric 12's I'm biulding a web site on the tests made on my Honda CIVIC 1991 Model Hatchback which will include all information for you LOUD BASS FREAKS and CIVIC LOVERS Thanks TO MEXX I've Bought the PD-4000 and I'll never regret it. Stop Giving the BOSS PD-4000 a bat raputation ... Continue giving other BOSS eqiupment bad rep but not the PD-4000 cos it ROCKS. |

New member Username: GlasswolfPost Number: 477 Registered: 12-2003 | what is the output of your alternator? a stock civic alternator is about 65-70A. if an amplifier were truly drawing 1600 watts RMS in that car, you'd need 1/0 AWG cable for power from the battery, and your alternator would need to supply 150A of current for that one amplifier alone, plus another 50-60A for the car, or as soon as you turned the system up the car would stall. based on this, if you're not running 0 gauge cable for power, and if you don't have a 200+A alternator installed (think $800+ for that upgrade) you are NOT getting 1600 watts. when you say "tested" how was this done? with a dummy load and oscilloscope? |

New member Username: GlasswolfPost Number: 489 Registered: 12-2003 | I looked at the stats for that PD-4000 it's rated for 4Kwatts @ half an Ohm. I'd still be wary of such a product. Even if it does produce that kind of power I'd never trust the reliability of anything made by Boss. |
New member Username: MaxkillaPost Number: 4 Registered: 01-2004 | The 4KWatts are MAx Power ... The Real RMS Rating is about 1900 Watts RMS at 1/2 ohm . My Pictures are Underconstruction. I will open a web site as soon as possible with all the pics Would i be worth it for competition ? |
New member Username: GlasswolfPost Number: 499 Registered: 12-2003 | sounds like ya have a good start. did you say you've damped the vehicle pretty well yet? let me know when ya get that site up. I'd love to peruse it. the stat page I saw did state 2000W x 2 @ .5 Ohms RMS. Even for a MOSFET Class-D amplifier, that's quite a bit of power. Granted, running a half Ohm stereo laod isn't always convenient (I know. I used to do that with Orion HCCA class-AB amps to get 400W RMS out of an amp rated for 25W x 2) |
New member Username: MaxkillaPost Number: 10 Registered: 01-2004 | GlassWolf you seem to know pretty well about Car sound stuff ... what do you encourage me to buy for the MIDS and HIGHS ??? With 1200 watts RMS bass ? I saw the kicker r25 for the highs but mIDS nothing yet ,,,, |
New member Username: GlasswolfPost Number: 514 Registered: 12-2003 | for an amp? look at the Kicker 300.4, MTX Thunder404, or JL 300/4 all are great 4 channel amps for components. If you want to go higher end than that and have the modney, Zapco, Arc Audio, or Sinfoni. you won't get much better than that. |
