Re: HQ Amp for the Autotuba

I was just wondering if you had measured the voltage output on the other amps. I have been driving around with a volt-meter on my dash :ugeek: . The MB Quart amp was putting out around 25-28v. To my ears it didn't sound that great above 20v, and dance music transients sounded bad even at lower volt...

Re: HQ Amp for the Autotuba

Just got the BPX500.1 hooked up. I haven't really had a chance to dial everything in perfectly but got it pretty close. This is a mean sounding amp! It has about the same punch and kick as the Bryston. The transients sound good and are fairly well defined. It definately sounds a bit more gritty and ...

Re: HQ Amp for the Autotuba

Thanks for the input. I'll check out the Blau amps. And yes, Bryston is very honest :clap: I have an interesting twist to the plot though. For a long time I've been running my car subs off of a cheap 100$ Kicker ZX300.1. When I hooked it up with MCM loaded AT's it didn't do well with the higher impe...

HQ Amp for the Autotuba

I have been working to optimize my car setup for dual AT's. I pretty much got the eq and crossover frequency set where I want it, now its just down to the amp. The AT's are loaded with high xmax dual 4 ohm coil drivers with 250w rms power handling. I got a MB Quart DSC 1000.1 to run the subs and the...
