Not like I'll ever need or be able to afford this power, but check out this Kicker amp. The warhorse. .. Could kicker earn the old rep back??

How does this compare to the Sundown/Cactus/ etc SPL amps?

 

I'd love to see a burp test against a SD8000, this Kicker has an interesting concept that has a trade off for SPL, it cannot clip.

 

^^^ what do you mean "it cannot clip"?

 

I remember reading a few different reviews on this amplifier, and cannot clip, is this due to the circuitry and having huge caps inside?

 

Old news.

It amplifies audio signal directly to DVC subwoofers from the patent-pending, signal-modulated power supply, rather than relying on help from amplification circuits found in traditional Class D or Class A/B designs. This results in efficiency ratings unheard of in mobile audio - 90-percent efficiency at a 2-ohm load and 93-percent efficiency at a 4-ohm load at full power.

Four-year design process.

Who the hell can afford that?

 

if you wanna hear the amp in action give me a shout.

i have two of these running a pair of MTX Jackhammers in my escalade.

 

huh when did u trade in the H2... cant wait to hear it.

 

two of them for 2 subs!!
I'd love to hear em' thanks for the offer.. if we make it to some shows that you're at, maybe you'll be driving it and I'll ask for a demo.

I guess since i wasn't in the market for a 10k amp, I didn't notice it..
On sale for $3500 though, I'd have to sell my whole stereo to get it. Tempting lol
