Questions & Answers

Do you know if it will power 2 12" 2500watt power acoustics as well as 2 12" 1000watt Kenwoods?

On paper, yeah, it'll make them boom, but I'm afraid it won't give them the power they require to sound good. Although technically, yes, it'll power them, but I'm afraid it won't send them enough power to make them sound good. The circuit has two fuses of 40 amps each. My math shows (with the voltage my car alternator produces) it'll do roughly 1,040 RMS which is much less than the 2,100 the manufacturer claims but not uncommon for budget audio companies such as PA to claim the same number. A friend of mine has the amp paired with the same two 12" subs that she has & You can have an insanely clean, crisp, and balanced sound for just a couple hundred bucks That sub hits stupid hard. The 3500PA powered my 2500Watt HDS 15" Soundqubed sub for a while, but I had to get something else because my sub needs a true 1200RMS and output level. It wasn't enough to make the grade with the PA's 1040. Yet it is an amp that is very good for the price!

Do I have a chance of getting a good bass out of my 2- 15" throw subwoofers if I use this amp?

I can't believe how good this amp is when it's wired properly. A single voice coil with a resistance of 4 Ohm can be wired together to produce a resistance of 2 Ohm. Those are 2400 watts at 2 ohms I believe

What is the number of channels on this amplifier?

It pushes my 2 15 a little but that's still pretty

You can use the wire they send you, but the amp won't support it

It is Power Acoustiks that makes a real difference! to either 5* or less depending on performance after installation! An HDS3 with a 1200RMS rating is what I have
3/5

A 15-inch Soundqubed sub and a 15-inch Soundqubed sub In order to power it, I purchased a Cobalt 2500 from Orion. I was put in 1D after about 8 months that shot craps on me and began to jump in & begin to play I had to turn off and turn off the protection mode to get it out of protection It's time to move forward. I let it jump into the water for about 20 minutes then it began to jump out. Once again, we are out of protection mode! My next step was to get a I finished it in a little more than a month. This was also the beginning of the same problem! It includes the Razor 2500 and the Power Acoustiks system that I installed on my girlfriend's car. Although I've always believed that top of the line products should be used when it comes to audio systems, I've been installing PA Gothic 12" subs for quite some time. PA has always been just another middle of the road generic brand of audio components for me. Her system continually amazes me with how well it performs, not only because that tiny little amplifier performs so well in terms of sQ and clarity, it also sounds tremendous in the recordings she has done with it. . . In addition to her dual Gothic 12" setup, she uses an overall stereo output. In spite of this, she purchased a kit that had only 8Ga when she installed it. Connect the power cord and the grounding wire The ground on which that amp is running isn't sufficient enough for the 2500w amp to run at 1ohm, but that amp still puts out incredible power and is not very big. I have it set at 3/4 gain and only 3/4 boost There was no non-stop after that Even when I just cruise around town for an hour or two the temperature doesn't change! I decided to check out the 3500 RZR after I had been blown away by the YZ250! Due to how well her razor performs, I am no longer concerned about the blade size the only thing I am concerned with is the fact that there are two 40amp fuses, resulting in 80 in all. A fuse total is normally multiplied by the voltage it is fed. For example, 80Ax13 would be The 9V is equal to 1,112 RMs and & RMS output @1. 0 ohm is usually the closest you'll get to the true value. I. & I. Taking The RZR3500 for example, PA states that it is rated at 2100RMS at 1 ohm, which is a completely inflated figure! In any event, as long as I test it after hooking it up & it does not leak any leakage from it If this amp can perform roughly the 1,112RMS that Ohms law suggests it should I will be extremely happy with this amp especially at such a low price! I plan to install this here in the next few hours, so once I've done it, tune it up & connect it to the internet I will give you an update on this amp once I have done a quick clamp test. Even if it performs half as well as the Razor 2500 my girlfriend owns, I'll be more than satisfied. My bias for Power Acoustiks would definitely be swayed if that were the case!.

I hear a loud hummmmmm
5/5

Among the issues I encountered was I had to turn up the volume all the way to get the beats I wanted from my 1200 watt speaker system, and there was a loud hummm when there was no music on and I accelerated. Oh, I see. There is no way I could remember. In their email to me, the company stated they were only interested in replacing the product (which would be great if it weren't working), but did not discuss it nor try to troubleshoot any issues. The unit is supposed to handle a lot more power than my two 1200 watt speakers, but it is barely able to keep up. The speakers are good for the money, but I wouldn't recommend them for those with high-end audio equipment.

The installation process was very simple
4/5

You have to see what this thing can do! Installation is easy, and it fits almost anywhere thanks to its small size. Power is being supplied to two 10" DVC Power Acoustik P3-based monitors 10W drives and they are effective in ported boxes! Even when the gain setting is set to 3/4 and the bass boost to just under 3/4, these things do not even distort. I'm sure I could push them harder once I get rid of a few trunk rattle issues.

This is a good deal for your money
3/5

Basically this is a really good amp for the money, but there are two issues to consider. I have tried to fit 4 gauge wire into the amp, but I have not been successful. You can trim the copper on the end and fit 4 gauge, but what is the point when you have over 8 gauge by the time the 4 ga wire fits. The two other factors are that the amp runs super hard at 4 ohms while staying cold, which has me thinking longevity of this device will be outstanding, but for the price point, I am concerned that poor-quality components will end up being an issue. I hope I am wrong about that assumption because I want this thing to last, and I hope that it will if I run it at 4 ohm cold!.

It is doubtful
3/5

The situation seems to be fine. In my experience, the 2500 and 2300 dynos are close to its rms specifications. I know these amps are designed to accept thick wire, but why is that the case? My shirt needs to be shaved down by 4g. Unlike the higher power version, this 3500w model only has two 40amp fuses. The validity of that is also questionable. Aside from that. It's really important that you run at least four miles Using your line out converter, you can make power for this amp with the number 5.

A modified version
5/5

Despite its warranty, Power Acoustik wouldn't honor it. Their speaker melted internally while they were pushing it.

It tends to get a little muddy around 35 Hertz, since it is in class D
5/5

The power distribution and utilization are solid for such a small package. I will be upgrading and possibly updating this review. It may be the dollar store Subs that I have. It doesn't seem to be able to push 3500 Watts, however. Since I have two 1600 watt subs, I don't get a buzz in my eyes.
