I just bought this amp, it's in route to my house as we speak. I'm an over the road truck driver and I can't wait to get home next weekend so I can install it. Thanks for uploading this vid bro. I was hoping I made a wise choice when I selected this.
I'mma give you a tip do not melt the amp to the box that will cause it to blow from the hard hits will eventually make something to malfunction inside of it.. you don't have space to lay it in the trunk put it under driver seat
That's completely false. The entire vehicle has vibration just as hard as the box. After being in the car audio industry for over 25 years, owning 3 successful car audio shops, doing electronic/ amplifier repair service for 15+ years, building several Championship vehicles, holding several IASCA records, and being an authorized dealer for Audiopipe, American Bass, Resilient Sounds and DS18, I have never seen an amplifier malfunction or failure directly related to being mounted to a subwoofer enclosure, never.
I think where he went wrong was by saying that it will eventually make something malfunction. A more proper way of putting it would be it could cause the likelihood of something malfunction to possibly be higher. Because it is very well plausible. Another thought that I had stem from this what about the heat.. from what I've learned is that heat dissipation is a very important thing when it comes to subs and amp. By mounting a hot amp to a speaker that you want to stay cool also then you are not keeping the entire system cooler than if it was mounted in a separate location
No it doesn't bro . I've been installing them for over 20 years. Thats what I do for a living. 90% of amps are meant to be mounted on the box... it does not affect it in that kind of set up
Installing amps on the box definitely does damage. If you're going to screw it to the box at least put some type of foam or rubber in between because regardless of what anyone says or how long they been installing it is a No-No to fasten an amplifier to a box‼
@@ohiobassheadz7631 I'm an installer myself and been doing it a lil over 30yrs man and your statement is false if vibrations will loosen up a whole vehicle break welds....what do you think it will do to an amp?
@@cboyd430 you are comparing wayyyy two completely different things. You are trying to compare pure steel thats got tires put on it going 80 mph on a concrete road vs a little amp connected to a little box inside the vehicle with lots of carpet and padding...
I bought one of these about 3 weeks ago! It was making my pioneer 12's hit hard, until I moved my Box and power wire came out and shorted out the amp! I replaced it with a Hifonics Zeus mono block and it was also hitting! When my 6000 came back (it was under warranty) I put it back in! There wasn't much difference between the warzone and the Hifonics!
Tbh I was shocked when I got my amp and got it hooked up I’m not sure if you saw my last amp as big as it was you would think it would blow out my windows but this amp I swear ppl are sleeping on warzone this amp hits so hare them poor boss 12s they not gone make it to the summertime lol
@@so_faserious2838 not to be rude but any AMP if it’s hooked up correctly it will not blow anything. It’s called SMD Steve Meads distortion detector the settings will be perfect the system will last forever. U should definitely invest in a Steve Meads SMD Distortion Detector it will save you a lot of money in Audio. Now I don’t mean hook a big name brand Amp up to a set of sparkumatic speakers and expect them to last. LOL

@@jasonc.ziegler9414 if the boxes secure and mounted very well then I totally agree because in my case my amplifier is screwed to the Box but that's because the box is the sturdiest thing in my truck when the vibration and flex
Lmaoooo them vxfs is what I got on a hd3k rn tryna find the best budget friendly 6k that’s actually clamping 6k and then imma get a 400a alternator so everything runs super smooth at highest voltage. Stock alt with a xs group 51 under the hood and a xp950 in da back runs at 13.8V consistently. Can’t wait to get that shit in and hear these vxfs hit 150s tho😩😩
@@Turdpuncher so where did 2800 max come from? I know you didn't say it but I damn sure didn't see that....tbh I don't need it to do 8k. But they have plenty power for what I need em for!👍🏿
😳 his installer knows that amp ain’t the truth. He basically was telling him without saying it directly. You use 100-150 amp fuse. 1000 watts or better uses 300 amp fuses and dual input.
No. 1k amps use 100 to 150 amp fuses. An amp that uses 300 amp fuses is usually a 2500 to 3k amp. You are correct on this amp not being the truth , they make a dirty 1200 watts and are a chinese ripoff of an audiopipe made with the cheapest parts available. They are very inefficient too. But people still buy them because they are used to running cheap amps that say 3k but only put out 280 watts. So when they get an amp that puts out 1k , they think its the best amp ever built.
Yeah that’s some trash. What people don’t understand is your average hard hitting system is pushing about 1000 to 1500 true rms watts and it bangs. And it’s because they don’t understand how car audio really works. It’s simple but complexed at the same time. It’s a art of balance. I’m pushing two Taramps HD3ks on 2 AB XFL 15s. But that’s now. I started off cheap too and got disappointed 😔. But I took the time to research and learn the terms and language and what all the fancy words and big numbers meant.That’s the only way to not get ripped off. Because even when you go to so called Reputable shop they might give you “decent” product but it’s gonna cost a arm and leg and probably won’t be tuned worth monkeys 💩!
If he looking for a budget banger spend about $200 to $250 get one of them Skar amps . He could get one of the boys I got, the Taramps 3k. He could get one of those CAB 2000 or something like that and that joint do a good but over it’s rated and it TRUE RMS. Man research. How you make a UA-cam video but don’t use the same platform to better your knowledge of what you’re trying to accomplish. It’s amp DYNOs all over here.
@@consciousconscience912 i started the same way . Early ninteies pioneer par cone 10s with a dhd power cruiser 200 watt amp. What really got me into it was when the box broke . I bought another box that for a truck and it made the bass hit higher and i learned about box volume from our woodworking teacher at school . Then my amp fried because my battery went bad.i couldnt afford a new amp , so i went to radio shack and ordered parts till i got the amp going again. Learned how to solder on that amp. All because i couldnt afford new stuff. It all started there for me .
@@consciousconscience912 i feel for the guy, these car audio shops are a ripoff. Making a living off of people that work their ass off , just to turn around and mark up the stuff 30 bucks on every 100 , and then charge them out the ass to hook up some cheap ass wires and screw the amp to the box so they will eventually have to buy another amp because it vibrated the caps loose from the board.
Did you get your subs? How are they? I just ordered the 15 im extremely curious because in the pictures the LOOK good but are they really good for what they cost

Yes you did. I haven’t turned my radio up all the way yet because I’m scared I will blow my subs. That’s how much power this amp is pushing
@@so_faserious2838 so 6k is good to go with warzone12s or 15s they have good ratings as well
Oh yeah
Always wanted to build a system in a semi
@@so_faserious2838 what you do with all you old amps?

I got two of the 8ks on 6 12s.... let em stay sleep!
Crazy how everyone I see doing car audio buys Milwaukee when in construction Bauer can even withstand the wear and tear.
If youre looking to upgrade on a bang for buck, look into the AP BCD4 or Resilient Sounds Gold.
Sounds good bro
I tried the gravity Warzone 3000 true RMS watts and it sucks. But the subs I fuck with.
And the gravity Warzone 6000 watt sounds good as hell but doesn't produce the 6000 watts as stated😂.
Your amp probably fried from being mounted to the box. The vibration kills amps!

were sleeping on it cause it's barely a 3k, a real clean rating for this amp would be 2k - ua-cam.com/video/cBVuMd3ZyQg/v-deo.html
