Voltage is LAZY and WILL JUMP No More Private Repair for Some Amps

- To the retailers who say their amplifiers are good to 18 volts. They are pulling the wool over your heads without having any disclaimers.
Just search this to start the path of what we call, variables.
"High Voltage PCB Design: Creepage and Clearance Distances for High Voltage"
I agree 1000%. If everyone would do it correctly then there would be no need to run higher voltage or high input signal voltage. If you need more power then get a bigger amp. It's always good to have a lot more power than you need anyway. Get an oversized amp, run it at 14.6v, turn down the gain a bit and the amp should stay happy and cool if no vibration issues. I've been in car audio almost 30 years and have never once blown an amp. Running 6 15s on 2 Taramps Bass 15ks with 0 issues. This isn't rocket science. Lol. If you try to run anything at its very max all the time then it isn't going to last long. 18 volts would be like running a car engine at 8,000rpm non stop and it red lines at 6,000. Lol
Couldn't agree more!
Been dealing with this for years now.
That's why my shop offers no warranty on any repairs anymore at all!
I make sure the customer understands that the amplifier failed in their vehicle before they sent it in for repair/s, so if I repair the amplifier and they put it back into the same situation I can only guarantee the same exact results.
Whoever knows me or whomever Ive repaired for, One has to be mindful as to how they utilize their equipment.
Also at the amplifier fails, before and fails again after the repairs one has to have the courage to hold themselves accountable.
Most amplifier failures are user error and are mainly caused by
Low voltage, lack of reserve, excessive clipping, RCA signal input improper, improper impedance (depending upon the amplifier) .05, .33/.25/.17/ .08
So on and so forth.
It's all the teas are crossed and all the odds are dotted to begin with and the amplifiers not overdriven, One would never have issues with amplifiers at all period!
Just my two cents 🙂
Excellent content 🎉
If you repair it. They will hook it up. Say, it last 2 weeks . It blows from the obvious 18v then the customer will start the blame game on the repair tech and then bash you all over the internet.. You are one smart fella.
100% true. If I can't provide the absolute best service for the customer I will not accept the job as they will just bash my business online. Private repair for all amps will end in 2027.
Yeah I'm with you I try to tell everyone about everything you talked about in this video no such thing as stable no such thing as max no such thing as amp dynos!!! Every build every car every power source all that all the weather all that matters every build is different and it doesn't help when the brand lies or pumps it up you one billion correct about everything thank you for posting this information for people that don't understand or know
This is what so many don't understand. They take the manufactures word as gosple then wonder why it failed. I promise that it is RARE to have an OEM fault.
One more small state,, I totally understand why you're bringing this tire attention it makes sense,, is kind of funny me and hifi Victor got into this conversation the other day about running the HCCA at 16 volt to try to increase efficiency and power😅😅😅
Thanks
Wow you brought up two sides of the coin I never looked at it like that,, One I never thought of humidity playing that big a factor,, and your second and biggest point😅😅 every base head loves to do the next bass head with less power ,I,E,, One base head does a 150 DB on 10,000 w The other base head does 150 DB on 5000 Watts,, from one base head to the next base head that's a slap in the face,,, in other words haha you don't know what you're doing,,, That's why some of us try to run more input voltage😅
That's a big issue around where I'm at....At lot of guys want to run the input votage as high as they can get it and drop the load to a half an ohm. Never works out!
Only the lucky ones will survive!
💯💯💯🙏🙏🙏...🍻👊
