Cool idea guys fan of both channels!!
Your welcome
Bruce is one of a guy I swear he's an old man trapped in a youngsters body or he's just an old soul lol either way what you see is what you get with him he is 100% genuine and goofy as all getout!
Cant wait for the build to finish!
EXO !!! long time fan of his as well. awesome too see the colab! MORE!!
You had me at Exo, the world's most wholesome bass head.
big up for highlighting EXO you audio guys need to bump together full support
Been watching exo since he had the van. Cant wait to see his new build come to life. Its getting close
I watch his channel all the time and have been following this build.
It's going to be crazy when he finally gets it finished! 👍
I would like to see how this amplifier stacks up against the Sundown Salt 8K amplifier.
I’ve got one of these running 0.5 ohm and it never gets hot, and pushes my subs with ease, these amps are in my book the workhorse of amplifiers.
Exo used to live nearby where I live and work and I used to see him at car shows and events. Always full of energy and loving life
I love EXO's energy... dude has been doing his thing for a while and I'm happy to see him build his van up like he has. Hes definitely put in a lot of work.
Yowzers what a beast! I haven't watched EXO in a very long time but I better check out the build that has been notifying my phone
Dude!!!! Okay so that is more than serious power. Taking notes here I’m blown away by the power. This may be the amp I am looking for for a future build, but finances dang!!! Love products like this and see how well they preform! Great video!
I would say, YES. He chose the right amp. Those numbers are wild!
WOW... EXO is gonna be bumping...
EXO taught me things…way before I knew what I was getting into…and that build 😎💪🏾🎶
With few exceptions, exceptional gear is always priced exceptionally high! This is actually pretty reasonable considering... Runs very cool, is SUPER efficient, has outstanding headroom, and the internals are a beast! AND, if it ever fails, a hell of a boat anchor! Very nice equipment.
If it fails it can be easily repaired.
@@JasonWW2000 It's a not-so-subtle reference to the amplifier weight. 😉
Power and efficiency! Amazing 👏
Counts up cleanly!
I can't wait for Exo's Audio Completion omg this is build quality
needs to get a trailer to haul around the batteries for 12 of these , plus the amps for the high end 😲
Smart 5k does more. I’m happy with my purchase. Taramps for the win
I think Exo did his homework and made a great decision for his build. Can't wait to see it done.
Exos channel is how I discovered Steve Meades channel and Williston Audio too
I've always been a big fan of exo and where he's a fellow mainer and I was excited about his build when he described it, but damn it's been going on for sooooo long. I know life has interfered but the videos are so uneventful for awhile, like today I'm polishing the screw heads to a mirror finish! That's an exaggeration but not far off. Well if you had 2 hungry subs for $600 you could either strap 2 per sub or one per coil
Yeah, I gotta imagine in an insane build like that, efficiency has to be pretty damn important.
That amp is dope!
Exo build gonna be nuts
Owner was like"It'll do 6k" and they went with it. Thats a LOT of power. Pop a speaker reall quick.
I watch both your videos Big fan!!
Wow.. what a great choice...
Love when you test the big boys. Wish you would dyno a Crossfire XT 8K. Guess I'll just have to compare it to the Sundown Salt how it's rated around the same ohm load lol.
Yes.
Does anyone else think that the welds are going to be shaken off the chassis with that much power and bass? It's going to be interesting to see how one can run so many amplifiers with a vehicle. Doesn't seem possible. Hope he doesn't go deaf any time soon. lol. Hell, I have one quality JBL sub in my house and shake the walls with it! Thanks Big D for the heads up and video.
holy under rated batman amp wth
Nice test!
Great!! Now maybe someone will want to buy my I65C sets! 😅
That is a badass amp fo sho 😮
Exo is nuts
EXO nailed it 😮
Can't wait to hear that tin box rumble.😁👍
Put your phone at 60Hz on the input and connect the output to your electric panel with the meter removed from the socket and it would run your entire house! 😛
Found you some more cheap amps on Temu Big D 👍
I think EXO said he wants to run them at 16 volts. How would that change things?
The Audiopipe amp dyno is very close and a lot less expensive.
Awesome
HCCA 3000.1 SPLX is still the champ for watts per dollar!
Oh man that amp will line in the Internets for the end of time. Only thing that can take it away is the AI bots
It depends on the current price. That amp has dramatically shot up in price
1250 @8...... im at 4:00 and im guessing this puppy hits 10k
Big D... seeing an amp this large still at 14.4 has me wondering how big your lithium bank is on the bench?
Active cooling is DANG nice on paper......
But engineers know fans fail commonly. All it takes is a 20 cent fan not blowing for a couple minutes to ruin your $XXXX amplifier.
That's why they build in over current protection to (hopefully) prevent such things from happening. 😂
Is it me, or did the 6.1 do better than the 8.1?
Amp is cool.... but..... I think you can save $1000 and get a MD8k amp better Watt x $ value
You need to do a ds18 hooligan ko8k if you can they're monsters!!!
9238×12 on 12 18" Subs is gonna be ridiculous.
Lots of dynamic head room that's why
💯💪
So he has 12 of these and will have a total power of over 110,000 watts of power at 1 ohm.
HOW DOES THIS COMPARE TO THE ORION 5K?
I'm going to be gray and old by the time he gets it done 😂 but that amp is cool
badass amp for sure!!! Every install i have done with Incriminator Audio is still out there being pounded on every day. Solid brand!!
That’s why it pays to not penny pinch when it comes to audio gear if you want it to last 👌
I absolutely LOVE EXO! Been subbed frim his early days. Just him as a human being, his energy... all around good dude!! Thank you for doing this! I was actually curious about these amps. I bought my DS18 after i watched a dyno test of one... you rock Big D!
He is the same in person. Very humble, energetic and enthusiastic dude. Also the nicest person you’ll ever meet.
Totally agree. Exo is a good dude and loves him some car audio but according to some narcissist robot dude he’s a douche along with every other person in the community not him. 😂
You absolutely love him?
What the heck did those guys make?! That thing has 1 job to do, and it is an unleashed kaiju at making power! Exo is building a bass blender to pulverize people with.
An 8k,10k wrapped in a 6k case and marked as a 6k
@@jayrands5380 reminds me of the Addictive Audio 500.1. 8k-10k labeled as a 500 watt amp. And it actually did 500w
@@jayrands5380Back in the day if you bought an amp and it was cheap, you pretty much just figured it was half. Unless you paid a dollar a watt... Idk, I know people were into having a system and all, but I don't know how many people actually understood any of it lol
It's a real pu$$y wagon.
I do believe big d did actually play bass thru a blender ...
Love this and the energy Big D. Big fan of Exo as well! Always appreciate your tests! Thank you sir!!
Indeed. If only he and the internet were around in the 80's, I'd have made some much better car audio decisions.
I've met EXO at Slamology and his energy is just as infectious in person..his love for car audio is unmatched by almost anyone I've met..he is such a great dude..big big fan of EXO
EXO is the epitome of madlad. the maddest.
and watching the man enjoy his love of boom is .. poetic at times.
keep hittin them low lows, EXO.
Love that you did this! Two of the best car audio creators!
Potentially 110,000 watts for exo at 1 ohm
Then he has another 7K on mids and highs.
EXO,one cool cat.
Very nice amplifiers.
I'd love to have a dozen and fall back 30 years.
Much appreciated D👍🤞
My two favorite Car audio channels coming together. I love it. Thanks Big D!
***"This video has been paid for and brought to you by Incriminator Audio"***
Should have hooked it up to the kicker quad box or the massive 6000 watt sub in the acrylic box and bumpppp
That system is going to be a bass monster. It’s too bad he didn’t use Funky Pups though.
Funky Pups were a close 2nd choice I’m sure 😬
Funky pups for the win😂😂😂😂😂😂
That definitely shines light on how loud his build will be!! Thanks Big D
Another phenomenal test, would love to see what Sam had to say about the design. Thanks to Incriminator for sending the amp for a shakedown run. - Surry Virginia
Love to see this! EXO is amazing.
Another awesome unboxing and test on this new amp as usual!! 😎👍
Just realized how many years we've been watching EXO's build!! 😳🤣
Ok so made in Korea (Zenon or S&I) for double the price of JP’s Koreans? Those two houses build amps for HALF of the US based marketing companies (aka “brands”). Wolfram, Skar, Adere and so many more. Same shit. Different box.
The benefit here is the amp is doubled up inside with very efficient cooling. It’s designed to fit more amps in less space lengthwise
@@wal interesting. Does that make it “worth” double the price of similar-wattage amps?
@@TheGodofSEO Totally up to the consumer and what they need or if they value the more compact footprint. Cool thing is you have choices in what you buy.
@@wal that’s very political of you. My question was: does this feature make it “worth” twice the cost of an amp with similar power (or same) for half the price? You’ve tested hundreds of amps, so if I’m asking you, the testing pro, you should be able to have a non-politically correct answer: “yes Sasha, this feature X makes it worth twice the price” or “no, Sasha, this feature is cool because of Y but does not make the double price worth it”. Your passive aggressive tone on brands you don’t give a shit about is obvious, and your super uppity excited tone on brands whose ass you want to kiss is ALSO noticeable. So you can either be neutral or skewed but not both. Pick a side.
I have a 3rd gen ia20.1, and it is by far the best amp that I have ever used, beast amps for sure. In a perfect world, I would have their new ix4.1 on a pair of stereo Integrity hst15s.
Been following this build since his inception and it’s Amazing!!!
Dude! 12 18's
It's over 9000!!! You missed an opportunity to incorporate a very well-known scene from Dragon Ball Z lol
I knew they made amps, but for its size, it is killing it and with its massive output, way to go Big "D" for the win !!!!
Looking back at how much these crazy big boy amps cost 10-20 years ago in Nz and Australia, i swear it was like buying a very tidy 2ndhand Car! Technology has come a lonnnnng way
Not kidding about the need for killer power supply to feed this monster. Recommend stranded welding wire to carry the amps.
Hey i know this is random but me and my father have bought a triton 1000 watts 4 channel amp and would like if you could test it on your amp Dino
I giggled the whole video 😂 those amps are savage animals and EXO is gonna have one hell of a machine when he is done. Thanks for showing what they can do
8:43 BS about nothing - even the most budget computer has water cooling it has lots of power sure but it just a normal amp - spdif would be cool then you could get rid of the headunit change the crp wire terminals maybe just a power rail piece of metal with holes drilled into it then treaded for 10 mm bolts you could do that on both in and output - if you going to blow on about this and that at lest do something good
It’s great to hear the excitement in your voice. I had never heard of this company before today.
82% efficiency @1ohm while maintaining room temperature
$.28 per watt rated...
$.23 per watt tested...
That's not too bad... 🤔
$20k in just the amps, hooollyyyyy
He doesn’t mention it much but he buys ALL of his gear. Yes he gets discounts but he’ll still have $50k in this build easily
Another awesome video….think it’s really cool to 2 audiophiles helping each other out….keep up the great job
🙌🙌🙌
EXO is the goat as far as im concerned..
The IX6.1 is on god mode this amp did 82% efficiency at 1 ohms it’s hard for a mono amp to do that at 2 ohms so why haven’t you hit the buy now
Came with high expectations, and this amp did not disappoint - count me impressed!
He constructed a loft, various huge shelving, and workspaces within his massive garage, by himself, with utmost attention to detail. This is something I would do, but I doubt I would complete quite as much!
I care about 1% distortion.
Dude, they have all that power, and then he does have half style work. You know, he doesn't get any of the words certified or whatever. It's not to code of any still trade standard. S, it's like these guys have all these channels. And people are following them, but they don't have real jobs. They don't have official careers, and it's really just fabricated. It's amazing that these guys are making so much damn money. And they never had to go to schools. They never finished the apprenticeship. And I don't think any of them are cardholders or have any degrees in bachelors of science and engineering. It's hilarious to me.
But that's what the united states of america is about. Opportunity.😅
What meter did they use?😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Over 9000! Omg where's vegeta?
Very nice, looks like a total nightmare to repair.
That's pretty cool to see all these guys getting together. But what it proves is that of the 350 million Americans, where isolating the industry to just a handful which is insane. 😅
Yes it is a great idea for EXO to have these high power amps. I am proud of him doing this I been on his channel well over 9 yrs and prove this hobby is worth the money getting into.
The minute I seen the first one of these amps get dyno on Steve’s channel. I knew I wants to ditch my Crescendo amps and go with these. Just the fact that the size is WAY WAY smaller sold me. I prefer smaller footprints
