SounDigital SD 3000.1D EVO II Amp Dyno Test
Ғылым және технология
Yes, time for another Brazilian amp! This time we will look closer at the SounDigital SD 3000.1D EVO II. I purchased the 1 ohm version and it is rated to deliver 3000 watts at 12.6 volts in a heatsink smaller than a piece of paper!

Hey Mr Derek can you test the Rockville DB13 monoblock amp. Also is it possible to play frequencies lower than what the low pass filter on a monoblock amp can be set to? Like can 40hz or 35hz be played and heard through subs if the LPF can only go as low as 50hz? A lot of monoblock amps have that limit like this one I would like for you to test.
Never seen an amplifier mention on the bass section 5Hz and 10Hz. Now that’s MY kinda bass right there! 😀

BigDWiz haven't played it under 12v tho. These amps claim to have a good protection system from heat, shorting out and low impedance. Took a while to tune the box to get the right impedance. It would go into protection every time when the impedance dropped to low.. from what I've heard these amps are allmost impossible to break because of the protection system.

I remember when Car Stereo Review did a review of a Rockford Fosgate amp that did about 800 rms and the the reviewer said that the amp should not be wasted on bass but be used on mids and highs. That 1k test makes sense to me now. By the way, it was in the issue around when the tested the Kicker Warhorse. Good review. Thanks.

Some people said they snapped the bits, but I have a feeling that they might have been applying too much torque to them - little screws don't need nearly as much torque as large bolts.
Nice Video D. I'll never understand why the Brazilian companies refuse to use 1/0 inputs on these 3k and 4k amps.

I run a sd1200 evo on a 1500w sub. This amps stay cool and atleast in my case its durable af. I push it to the absolute limit and no heat, no protect and despite it shows clip on the indicator the sub doesnt heat and no smell or dark coil signs.

My new stetsom 6000 2ohm has those flimsy adjusters as well. Going from a AP3000.1d I only feel and hear more power the AP Would thermal after bout an hour -390amp U.S Alt XSpower d7500 in my engine bay and a XSpower d3400 as a secondary so I got good current and I use Orion dual 0 Gauge to single 0 gauge input adapters. Stetsom stay cool to just warm so far that is. I went to my ported box cause I was hitting Xmax to early in my sealed box. Clip light helps would be a million times better with a remote gain knob with clip light imo. Power is clean and brutal put its s different amp with different setting knobs then I’m use to so I’m trying to find a way to get the most optimal bass usage/output. Seems to be doing it’s rated though 🙃
Was expecting more
Hey Big D, What do you set the gain on an amp to when you test them? What I am trying to figure out is when does an amp make its peak power? I just bought the Soundigital 1200.1 but it powering an Alpine s-w12d4 which is only rated for 600 RMS. If the amp gain is turned all the way down will it still pull 1200watts if I crank my volume?

Hello Derreck thanks for your video, I have a question. Lot's of people talk about noise from Taramps, heardable easily from speakers. But we can notice than Soundigital have pretty the same prducts, but more expensive. Does the difference of price mean than Soundigital are less noisy than Taramps? Thanks

whats the temps like? the major problem with these from what ive seen around the net, is the high voltages used, and the temps cause them to over heat and burn up. so, it can make those numbers, but not for any duration... those peaks need to be intermittent. also, if the amps can tolerate 16v, can u run them at 16v and see how they perform? not to kill them, but to see if i set up an 16v system, if i can put them on the same 16v and still use them. i may not drive them to max, but still use them on 16v to avoid having a separate 14v system.

However, here I am 4 days after receiving the amp writing this comment to explain the amp cut off & didn't come back on it wasn't hot & it was only A few seconds into the first song of the day on my 4th day of owning it. I never played it for more than 10-15 at At A time. most times i would only play it for maybe one song.

So D! Thanks for getting this guy up there! I had been bugging you for a little while to test one of these SD 3k's! You always deliver! So I was looking at using a 2ohm version of this amp as an upgrade to power a pair of older model Fi SSD 10's in order to have a little bit of headroom because they don't quite need a full 1500w per sub. So what is your opinion of this? I wanted a small high power amp to fit in my pick up truck since there isn't a lot of space to keep a big fat amp out of the way and protected from normal truck use. What do you say? Should I go for it? Or there a better option that is no larger than the SD that perhaps I should look at? Thanks again for the video, and I look forward to hearing your opinion.
