First Entry: My latest install- Front Components and Amp.
 
3 Attachment(s)
I've been lurking around for a while now, but i have not really had anything to post as yet. Seeing I just installed my new Premier series 6.75" component fronts, and D-class 4 channel amp, i thought id share it as my first real post.

Was frustrating, but fun. I very rarely get to get my hands dirty on my car.

Car audio installers earn their money on 240's for sure. I worked as an installer/salesman about 7 years ago back in Australia, and am a little rusty nowadays.:thumbsdow

BTW, these speakers are worth every penny, and have been voted the best sounding speakers of the year. I easily agree. Better than Boston Pro, and Hertz of the same range.

No wonder the fronts were sounding :

D-Class 4 channel amp and crossovers. Install was a little ghetto, just need to hide the rear speaker wires when i have some spare time, as i was in a rush to get it finished::ohwell:

Everything worked out nicely. Hopefully its loud enough now to hear over the new exhaust and Blacktop that is going in this week!

Cheers

thatsa Fullrange class d, what awaste man, Audison makes one too, this is only to prevent there clipping or something like that, I was talking to an Audison rep and he was tell me about this, I think its BS

dj spud 02-14-2007 02:39 AM

all the internals are made by bang and olufson. It produces the same amount of power as a class a amp for only a fraction of the current draw, and heat produced.

The FD class amplifiers are the way forward, and i am really happy with the quality of the sound produced. Especially when matched with the PRS components.

Here is a little more info on amp classes:

Those tweeters look nice and clean flush mounted..

How do they sound??

dj spud 02-14-2007 11:32 AM

they sound really warm. The staging is off a little due to them being mounted where they are, but they are really nice tweeters. Not harsh like a lot of metal dome tweeters ive listened to.

Totally, sorry mate. Im Australian, and we get a little fired up when people try and tell us we are full of when we know we are right.

Sorry, but if i know im right, i will get a bit defensive.:dunno:

Cheers

Prolifik 02-14-2007 01:24 PM

i still think u are full of

is that a class D or FD? make up your mind

MR2NR 02-14-2007 01:47 PM

Yuli, it is indeed a class D amp, the same type of amp topology that Eclipse contraced to B&O about 3 years ago. Eclipse has had this topology for three years now in the form of what is called ICEpower. Currently Alpine PDX amps, Pioneer Premiere amps and Eclipse XA series use this amp topology.
