    To be honest, Mr Meade, you need your own TV show! There is a show for everything. You should have your own television. I bet every audiophile would tune into your show. Even people who have no clue about car audio would still watch it.

    Reminds me of Edgar Allen Poe's famous novel the raven. Yeah bassheads can be smart too. When I beat the city up on the way to school in the morning it gives me happiness and the mindset to use that energy towards my assignments. And honestly I'm passing all four of my classes with 3 A's and a B. So get you some bass if you want to get smarter, it'll knock all the distractions out of your head, get it? Ha

    Nice. I've only seen one amp larger than that one. It was an Orion from 92' and it was 5 feet long powering 4 15's in a pickup. No idea what the wattage was though.

      @B2audio 6 років тому

      Marcus Thorman Det er jeg glad for at høre. Vi har jo også kommet med vores hifi serie som Ref Four, kommer kun i 4 Kanals, men den kan brokobles og er stabil i 2 ohm bridge eller 1 ohm stereo på alle 4 kanaler. Så den kan snildt bruges som en 2 kanaler da de fleste andre 2 kanaler ikke er stabile under 2 ohm. Fordelen her at du vil få en meget stor 2 kanal i forhold til effekt og type af forstærker.

  • @iwiredit
    @iwiredit 6 років тому +1

    It looks a whole hell of a lot like the Z2c Digital Design's Zed audio series amp. The specs and dimensions are damn close, guts look similar as well, but Dynamic power is somewhere around 20,000 watts @16v on the Z2c. Both amps I bet are super power hungry.

    • @sheldoncooper2115
      @sheldoncooper2115 6 років тому

    • @B2audio
      @B2audio 6 років тому

      Amp is way wider as well as pcb. Uses more than 25% larger German made power supply cores. Has greater capacitance in both power supply and output section and those extra input terminals makes a difference besides the goodies you can't see below.

  • @7thfloorisnomoreq790
    @7thfloorisnomoreq790 6 років тому +1

    Hey look it’s a crossfire 8x or a American bass whatever, Lanier ykw, sundown something, or some other brands case. I really wish sundown, dc, dd ,crossfire ect would actually come out with there own amp. Everyone is using the same boards with slight differences like gains and output location. Best amp to get in a certain power is the best priced one.

    • @B2audio
      @B2audio 6 років тому +10

      I guess you need to take a closer look or have the amp in front of you.
      Had to tool a new heatsink for this pcb as it is near 2" wider than the amps mentioned.
      Doing quad 0ga inputs was a worlds first on a strappable amp when we launched this one.
      Which again leads to all copper traces being different as well.
      What is similar is the output section, but it is by far the same since this pcb offers advantages compared to others. Besides this is a proprietary design.
      As for it being a cf 8k, then you need enlightenment. We introduced that design in 2009/2010 on the m1 mk2. Several revisions and upgrades happened since then leading to better and more efficient designs.

    • @forbiddenera
      @forbiddenera 6 років тому +1

      Dope for the manufacturer to come here and back shit up. You guys should send us one here in Canada to test and promo ;)

    • @7thfloorisnomoreq790
      @7thfloorisnomoreq790 6 років тому +1

      B2 audio amps mentioned are just examples not exact as only 1 model was mentioned. Are you saying all your amps are yours? As it’s a design by you and no other company will have that board with the exact components with slight difference in the outputs and gains ect?

    • @B2audio
      @B2audio 6 років тому

      Low bass Most of our amps were agreed upon being proprietary. Only when we are moving on to another design we give the opportunity for others to use the same topology. However, money talks and being copied happens faster than you might ever believe. So clones will make it to the market, just with any other electronic item people can make money off.

    • @1-Six-dee
      @1-Six-dee 6 років тому

      Jose Garcia u would need alternators and probably 800 amp hours worth of agm to run it, my 12k says one dedicated 250 amp alternator and 4 100 amp batterys to run it at one ohm I ran it at 0.4 and two 350 amp alts and six 100 ah batteries would barely hold it but with lithium now u could get away with one 100 ah lithium which is four foot long and a foot tall and a foot wide

    • @bigghurt187
      @bigghurt187 6 років тому

      Your gonna wanna redo all of your electrical system. A H.O. alternator, Big 3 upgrade, and depending on how you run your amp depends on how many batteries you may need. For example I run my 4 BC5500s at
      .5 ohms which is not recommended but if you do you better have the power to feed it, as that is one of the main ways to destroy a amp is under powering it. Hope this helps

    Why soo many power/ground inputs? Is it designed to run with 4 batteries, all with their own leads connected?

    • @B2audio
      @B2audio 6 років тому +5

      Carbon Reed mainly due to the current it is pulling. Ordinary limits for a true spec 0ga cable is 300A. Running this amp at full tilt can get peaks of above 1200A. 3 sets of inputs wouldn't cut it.

      16v won't kill the dyno. But i can't really supply that. I will test it with what i got and compare it to the ratings in the book. I would imagine i can get at least the 14.4v numbers out of it.
