These shops mashing on NVS Audio shows that you guys are doing something right. I respect Carlos so much simply because he never smack talk. He reaches out to others to see if he can help.

How is your amplifier holding up? What did you get installed?

Great video I respect nvs audio knowledge and respect goes a long way

I have an EVOX 800.4 ON MY ROAD GLUDE. Rrunning 4 diamond audio speakers at 4 ohms each. Amp installed with FOSGATE complete amp install kit. Gain set with SMD DD1. No issues after 1 year.

Been torn about amps & speakers.seen a few of your videos and bought 2 800.4 and 2 sets of prv6.5 carbon fiber speakers..Can’t wait to install em

I just had a sound digital 2000 water proof installed on my bike. Within a couple weeks the amp was cutting out. Now I have 2 cicada amps and I’m very pleased.

Awesome advice and products!

Theres a reason your shop stays so covered up ! Keep up the great work

Another great and informative video💪🏾

I've learned a lot from these videos. This dude highly knowledgeable, detailed, and operates with integrity. I wish they made more videos about bikes without fairings. All of my bikes are road kings. I'm trying to find a nice set-up for my bike. I only want 1 amp, 1 8" and "6 x 9" in each bag. Any ideas?

NVS audio is my shop and Carlos is my guy. I just came from him yesterday 🤣😅. My car is only touched by him and I will drive hours to get to the shop. He's very professional and knowledgeable about his audio field. Thanks again Carlos for all you and your guys do. I appreciate y'all!!!!! If you were like me and was scammed by audio shops. PLEASE GO SEE CARLOS AND NVS AUDIO. You will never go to any other shop!!!! See you soon Carlos after I get my new truck lmfao 😂😂😂😂😂. You know how I like my music

I almost exclusively only install 2 amplifiers as of right now. The NVX VADM2 or Sound digital 800.4. My reasoning behind that is how bulletproof both of them have been. I agree 100% with everything you have said. I would like to add..... if these shops continue to install these high powered audio systems on stock batteries their failure rate will continue to climb. I believe you recommend a battery upgrade at 1000 Watts. I do the upgrade at 700 watts just to stay safe. Another great video keep up the good work.

what fuse size should I use? I have a knuconceptz 4 gauge ofc amp kit and a sound digital evox 1200.4 and fronts will be bridged btw we really appreciate all the knowledge you put out on your channel.

I’m getting ready to upgrade my audio again on my Harley street glide and I’ve decided that I’m for sure going with the sound digital evox2 800.4 amplifier… now I just need to figure out what 6.5” and 6x9 speakers will be the best for what I’m looking for in my audio!! 🤯🤯

After stumbling across your video, I'm wondering if the failure rate is attributed to cooling issues with these amps. In a breakdown video I saw that the housing itself, like with many amps, acts as a heatsink and has thermal compound between the ICs and the housing. Have you broken down a failed amp to see what the condition of the thermal compound is? In nearly all failed electronics I've dealt with the failures have been either a capacitor issue, or poor heat dissipation. I intend to build a 6-speaker system for my truck using a 6.5" 3-way in each of the four doors and a pair of 6x9 4-way in the cargo area. Being an expedition rig I don't have much space for physically large amplifiers and have to fit both under my driver's seat, so I've been planning an EVOX 800.4 for my door speakers and an EVOX 400.4 for the pair of 6x9s in the rear and no subwoofers. As part of the install I intend to open up the amplifiers and replace the thermal compound with higher end compound that I use my computers, along with mounting the amps on rubber bushings to absorb road and trail vibrations from my truck (lots of washboard roads). What is your opinion on using the EVOX amps in an application like this?

Ready to upgrade my Precision Power i1000 4ch to a SD EvoX 800.4. My setup will be 6.5 DB Drive CDs in the fairing, Ground Zero 8s in the lids and DS18 TW820 Tweeters in the lid. Will one amp do the job?

I have this amp,it sounds amazing but while I was unplugging the jack the jack sparked and my amp smoked. I’ve never experienced anything like this in all my years installing music. I had to buy a new one the 1200.4 evox and these baby aren’t cheap.

Sound Digital is fantastic

I'm coming from Michigan with my bike and looking to get an helluva setup..

Thanks for the video, I bought the 800.4 sound digital amp (grey case) I tried installing into my street glide with the aquatic av radio. I cannot get this amp to work. I've tried EVERYTHING! I'm only running 2 ds 18 pro speakers, ( possibly more in the future) anyway I had a guy message me and said I have to have splitter rca cables to hook up using both channels , going into one set of rca's to the aquatic radio( which only has one set of audio outs. Does this makes sense? I'm only using 1 channel. What's you professional opinion? Thanks

I run 4 , 6 and a half to Tweeter bullets and six by nines in the saddlebag what size amp do you recommend.

Got a great deal on db drive moto 6.5 (350 watt) and db drive 6x9 for bags. Would a 800.4 be sufficient. I believe the 6.5 are rated at 100-125rms and the 6x9 are about the same. Any help would be appreciated.

Good stuff

My 1200.4 Evox failed on a GZ 6.5s and Diamond 6x9s in the lids. I believe it was the install and manufacturer

I can’t speak on the technical side of things, that’s Mr. Carlos expertise, but as a business man I know that if it’s causing me to lose money I wouldn’t supply the product. As a client of NVS audio I’ve had only 2 failures, one being a faulty speaker (which was replaced no questions asked free of charge) and the other being a Sd 1200.4 that I was FORWARNED about from Mr.Carlos himself that it wasn’t one of his favorites and that they tend to have the most problems out of the product line. But guess what, NVS audio STILL stands by their product and will be replacing the amp no hassle no questions asked…And I’m sure he is NOT in the business to be loosing money. So the evidence suggests that SD is a solid product. But more importantly NVS audio delivers a SOLID product and he stands behind it. I REFUSE to spend my money elsewhere. And I’m 5 hours from him lol
