anyone out there have info on them?

If so can you post the specs and model number if there is an amp that does somewhere near 300x2 or if a miricale has happenend 300x4

One last thing are these amps suppose to run cooler then the ti's.

From the info i have..

There are 3 monoblocks-
X400.1---400 wrms x 1 into 1, 2, or 4 ohms
X600.1---600 wrms x 1 into 1, 2, or 4 ohms
X1200.1--1200 wrms x 1 into 1, 2 or 4 ohms

There are 2 2-channels
X100.2---100 wrms x 2 into 1, 2, or 4 ohms
X200.2---200 wrms x 2 into 1, 2, or 4 ohms

There are 2 4-channels
X100.4---100 wrms x 4 into 1, 2, or 4 ohms
X200.4---200 wrms x 4 into 1, 2, or 4 ohms

I have never had a heat/thermal problem with my ti amps.. But from what i have been told the Xenon will have a MUCH larger heat sink mass, and new thermal monitoring circuits.

200 x 4 sounds great to me.
Precisely what I need in terms of amplification.

these ampos are the bomb. I think the look great. We received a xenon sub and a few amps along with the coax and boy does it look good. I can't wait to get a 1200.1 into our car

HMMMMMMMMM
why if the pg elite components and the PG elite 9" are rated at 300x2 would they not have made and amp that is 300x2. It could also be marketed as a sub amp.

How much power do the TI comp sets realy need?

PG has told me 100w's would be fine, with 150w's being ideal..

GMAC, The 300wrms rating is only a thermal rating.. Its a WOW factor only. If i owned a set i would have no problems putting a 100-150w amp on them.

You ever had a chane to listen to these?

Here is a qoute I find from one of the guys at PG
Hello,
Thanks for your interest in Phoenix Gold products. We highly recommend 250-300 watts per side for the elites to sound good and perform as expected. I would recommend at least 200 watts per side to get the full range of sound you're looking for...
Best wishes,
PG Trainer


I guess judging by this the x200.4 (4x200W) would be ideal with that setup

Any idea on the price range of these amps, secificaly the 200.4?, I had heard these were to be lower in price then the TI's were.

Are these new amps replacing the Ti's?
Where can I find info on them? (PG's website has yet to be updated)

GMAC, i have listened to the ti elites many times.

The 200.4 is expected to have a US MSRP of 750.00, The ti500.4 had a MSRP of 850.00US.

The xenon replaces both the Ti line and tantrum line.
