I don't particularly care for class D amps for mids and highs, but that amp sounded really good on your Elacs!! Tony really outdid himself with the E series. I'm dying to hear his T series amps. Hope he can send you one for testing when they become available. Great video BigD!! 👌

Thank you for Sharing, been Learning from Steve and D Amoure, can't Wait to try one of the 400's.

I have 2 of the 1000.1 coming Just waiting for them to ship it That little amp is a ANIMAL

Fantastic work. Excellent testing.

Love that audio control at the end

Good efficient SQ amp for separates. Pretty compact too. Internal fuse is kind of a bummer, but Not a deal breaker.

Many months in, (edit- i was a first run buyer, on the 3 boards) with my E400.4, 350.2, and E1000.1. I have not got to the E1000.1, as of yet (low end is coming) but, i adore these boards. Zero issues, run cool, for hours. Build quality is top tier, sound quality is "to each their own", but for me, they are amazing. I will be getting more soon.

Really valuable information right here 👍🏽

I will be posting the 350.2 amp dyno on my page in a couple weeks. I did the 40hz test on it.

Hey Big D I know this ampifier is more efficient and better built but for the price and also the fact that they look so much alike in ways why wouldn't i just purchase the dual xpr84D or the jensen xba94rb for just under a 100 bucks and get the same wattage out put.

and I bought the Rockville db45 4 channel amp and wasn't expecting such a gigantic amp when I got it in the mail. Now I don't know where the hell I'm going to mount it, lol

still love the T15K, and it looks kinda funny as on the main amp PCB there are almost no caps but under the PCB there's a gigantic cap bank I remember the vid where they had the wall of subs when they first showed it off

Interesting. Wish you could compare/contrast this with other tested amps!

I'd like to run a BM MKIV sub with a D'Amore amp. I believe the BM MKIV is dual 4 ohm coils. You can wire it either 2 or 8 ohms. It's rated at 450W. Which amp would you recommend?

This would be perfect for my truck. Small, good power for the infinity speakers in my doors, and a bridgeable 3/4 for a little bit of that .1 channel action tucked away. I've been looking at 4ch setups just for that reason, since those door speakers are lacking punch at only the 22w put out by my little head unit. My other car has the same speakers in the doors but that HU puts out double the power of the other one and you _absolutely_ notice the difference between them. Cooooooool.

Hey could you try testing out the t.amp e-800 amplifier? ive been looking at that amp as an option and hopefully it does 800 watts rms so i can pair it with a toro force 8. It will be a upgrade from the LG fo sho! thanks and have a nice day!

I was wondering if you could do a dyno of an alpine mrx240. I have one and I have looked for a few years to see the dyno on it

Hey big d. Can you check out the canadb amplifiers line and possibly dyno the 3k. It's a Canadian amplifier but it looks just like the Brazilian full bridge amps. Just want to know if that put out rated power

you should do a top favorite and rank the best budget in class all-time favorite and best amp per category

Would love to see dyno on rockford t series 400.4 and do 4 ohm dynamic numbers.

Yo Big D! I'm a little late on the comments but wanted to see if you had an opinion on what subs to pair with these amps? Just pre ordered the 1000.1 after watching this and Steve Meade's videos on D'Amore.

I hope they have plans to make a 4 channel version 100x4 RMS I'll get on the spot. I also wonder if they'll work on building a DSP in the near future 👍🔥🔥

@Arthur Lee I’m guessing you are to stiff to enjoy a joke.

Ok. So if the watt per dollar ratings were identical would you buy a 4 channel amp from D'Amore or Audio Control? Who has the better sounding amp?

What DB do you set the gains at both the 40HZ and 1kHZ ?

I demand a dyno for that audiocontrol, im not decided on to get a lc800-4 + lc800-1 or this lc1300-5

I could use advice on what amp best for two 8s, two 10s, two 12s I’ve got in truck... for my mids I’ve got infinity 5 channel, but want one amp for all 6 subs

@5:33 if I bridge the amp, but want a full range would that be adjusted by switching top switch to CH3/4 and bottom switch to full? Also would it require RCAs on both inputs or would a source signal from CH 1&2 feed all 4 channels? Sorry if its appears to be a rookie question.

Would this so be enough to power my pioneer Z series 🤔

HELP PLSS This is my first system install. I have a Audiopipe db2 on an Autotek TA2050.1 2000w Mono. I hooked everything up and got NOTHING from the amp. The remote wire was wired to the remote wire in the back of my afm stereo. I used Ttaps to do this. Im getting about 10-11.5 volts on the remote wire from the stereo but only about 2-4 where the remote wire hooks up to the amp. I then tried a different wire that was putting out 14 volts thinking maybe it just wasn't enough before. Still only got about 2-4 volts where it connected to the amp. What is the issue 😭🤦 (I've been trying to find time on the weekend to do this for 5 weeks)

So with the clean d technology do these amps retain their sound quality at high volume levels unlike most class d amps? I guess what I’m asking is will this be as good of quality as an old AB technology of a rockford fosgate dsm?

Seems Chinese made and retails for 289$ which is high for a Chinese amp. I got it very cheap but can’t find much of its history. Probably a Chinese warehouse but I’m curious as to what power it puts out.
