Derek ,Great Video .!! Like always!! I would love to see you tear some of these Targa or ICE audio amplifiers in South African They claim outrageous claims like the Mustang and Pyramid Equalizer’s Still do I am talking 9000 watts,RMS they claim is 60X4 ?? How does that happen Some are Even as high as 30,000 even maybe 50,000 gigawatts lmao I would love to see what these items amp Dyno at lmao Anyways I believe that with Class D technology These Temu and cheaper amplifiers will make their rates power sometimes .But when if you tested a Class A/B ? It would most likely fail Class D makes it easy and cheap To create digital power
Down 4 sound amps are way worst than this TEMU amp. This thing is actually a newer design. The junk from JP are ancient design he just knocked off from other china amps.
@@guysgt5003would you care to elaborate on your previous comment?? I'm very interested in hearing how & why you think that this TEMU amp is superior to the various variety of D4S JP amps. @guysgt5003 how is this 5 Channel 'BEMINES' amp "a newer design amp than the JP95"??? I can't wait for you to reply so I can gain some knowledge from you. Afterall did you fail to notice this TEMU amp does not even have a bass remote?! Hmm this cheap Chinese 5 Channel 'BEMINES' amp somehow utilizes a more "advanced design" when compared to the South Korean D4S JP amps 😂 oh for some reason I think @guysgt5003 truly believes what he commented 😅 NOW IF HE'D JUST ELABORATE AND EXPLAIN WHY THE CHEAP 'BEMINES' AMP IS SUPERIOR TO THE SOUTH KOREAN HALF BRIDGE JP AMPS... (I'm doubting @guysgt5003 will even reply now, all crickets!)
most importantly ...they listed the correct power! IT DOES ITS RATED POWER! that's a huge deal. Does rated power on a dyno, didnt explode, didnt sound like hot garbage, and cost 100 bucks.. lets take a minute to reflect on just how awesome that is.. where we were 10-15 years ago. Great job as always Big D!
the correct power is listed, i hope its not just a fluke, but even the circuitry inside looks good. this was probably designed for a very small car in mind,
You sound like a salesman for this board. But I totally agree with you. If I could get my car audio to sound like that based on a $100 amp. I'd be majorly happy. If you're really that stressed out about the low power on the base, it's not hard to put another inline power amp in. I give this thing an 8/10 given the cost and 'bang-for-'buck'. It's a car for peats sake. Anything better than a valve radio, in my opinion, is a major plus!
It's might be anemic, BUT, it's putting out more juice than a lot of "premium" factory car audio systems. This with 4 speakers and a 10" DVC sub would sound worlds better than what you get in a lot of cars.
yea i mean 300w to sub. granted its 1ohm wich is very uncommon for a 5 channel amp in the name brand industry. but wattage of 300w into 2ohm is pretty much where 95% of the normal name brand 5ch amps sit at so... this isnt far off the mark at all.
I mean, get 4 quality coaxials and a nice 10 or a 12 and you have an incredible system for under $400, wiring, amp, box, speakers and all that. Incredible time to be alive
Wow! Those little 40 amp mini blades are working overtime! That thing was putting out a thousand watts total with all channels maxed out. 👏 Could you imagine having a 5 channel amp with these capabilities for this price back in the 90s?
but tbh this amp probably wont last for very long. the components in such amps are working on the edge to get this kind of performance. JL amps do their power for ages without even stressing or getting hot. they are meant to last, this one is meant to sell
@@sushi3377 I beg to differ. I bought a jl 300/4 brand new....used upon normal operation, two channels went out unexpectedly. All that money for a brand name amp not to last. I'll take my chances with this.
20 bucks for one person at DQ yesterday. They screamed for a higher minimum wage without thinking it would raise the cost of the poor quality food they put out. Enough people quit eating out, they out of a job, period. Not supposed to raise a family on a transition job. You get work experience from those low wage jobs as kids, then grow up to the next level. Too many adult children running around. Nobody wants to grow up and have responsibilities so we have what we have today... poot. Sorry for the rant that was not aimed at you sir or ma'am... it just came out, diarrhea of the mouth so to speak
Mental 😂 you could find this exact board from the likes of Crescendo, Digital designs, Soundigital, B2 Audio, for MEGA markup money. It's the sort of thing they'd release. Dual 2093M based class D with your standard SMPS found in almost all car amps. You can't really go wrong as the factory isn't designing the critical bits of the amplifier, that's all done and optimised by the chip manufacturers; the factory/brand just connects everything together. Will it be the best sounding amplifier ever? No... Will it last more than 5 years? Maybe not... Will it sound absolutely fine and get really loud with good efficiency? Yep!
It's quite astonishing how class D has made such abundant power, reasonable quality and tiny size the norm these days. This may not be the last word in quality, but I would guess its better designed than a lot of car brands OEM amplifiers, and more powerful too.
I was just thinking of building my own amp using a few driver ICs (2092s perhaps) to put juice on my sub. Output buffers and more, stouter transistors won't hurt to be stable at 1 ohm, eh?
@@TheGodofSEOOh, you're not familiar are you? You see, Sam has a habit of saying that a amplifier circuit board is the "same" as this other brand. He doesn't mean literally that it's exactly the same, he means it's the same basic layout and design. I want the people who read these comments know what Sam meant when he said the boards are the "same".
As soon as we saw Temu, I was expecting something that completely missed the quoted specs. I am impressed that it's not terrible. Is OK for what it is.
I was reluctant to order anything from Temu. However, after I had ordered a couple things I was surprised. Their stuff is decent. Not bad. Definitely not bad at all for the price.
Dude! I've ordered some boots hats, and other things from temu! The boots got compliments at work, and people liked the hats also! Unlike cheaper Amazon hats, the temu hats are made of nicer material, and shaped better. I was shocked!
Of course, it’s not the best thing you can get, but I am impressed at that value for an all-in-one amp. Looks like a basic DSP would go along way with this amplifier.
I'm pretty sure the parent company making these is the same company making wudi and facmogu amps or its the same build house just going off the board numbers
I'm glad to see you review this Bemines amp! I've been eyeballing this amp every time I visit Temu. It's good to see a cheap Chinese amp label true wattage on it instead of some stupid 9000W or something. This will make the perfect amp for someone who's only looking for a cheap setup that can fill in the lows a bit. As for controlling the bass output, Temu also sells a low level bass remote that connects inline with the RCA inputs. It has two knobs, one for the volume level, and one for the crossover frequency. That will give full control of the sub section of the amp. I may very well use this amp in my Geo Metro as it's the perfect size and power output for my purposes.
@@T_Burd_75 I wasn't referring to the amplifier I was referring to the remote bass knob that you mentioned. If I were going to get a remote bass knob I would want it to be a simple, passive device.
@@JasonWW2000 I know. But he mentioned in the review that the amp lacked a remote bass control knob, something that he didn't like. Since the sub section of the amp uses separate RCA inputs, that can be controlled by a controller connected inline with the RCA cables. And having level control and a variable sub crossover control, you can adjust what frequency you want the bass to kick in and how loud when it does. And you won't have to crawl under the seat with a tiny screwdriver to do it.
@@T_Burd_75 Crawling under the seat to adjust the crossover point is a one-time job. You basically set it and forget it. The potential issue that you're not thinking of is that the active crossover circuitry built into the remote might add noise, distortion or clipping which the amplifier is going to amplify. I personally wouldn't take that risk. I'd rather keep the remote bass knob a simple passive device, a stereo potentiometer, and then have all the crossover circuitry done either in the amplifier or upstream in a DSP. That's just me, though. Maybe the particular device you're talking about is perfectly fine and isn't going to cause any problems. I can't think of any practical use for adjusting the crossover frequency in the remote, though. I would probably just set the frequency and then hot glue the knob in that position so I don't accidentally change it. By the way, what is the name or model of the remote knob you're talking about?
Honest power ratings are always welcome! The amp is a winner in my book 🙂 ... I'm going on I don't know how many years in disbelief that brands like Boss, Maxxsonics, Sound Around, Epsilon, etc... haven't been sued out of business for lying about power ratings!
Pretty much every company has been guilty of slapping a max number on the front of their product or packaging(reputable electronics giants like Sony, Pioneer, Kenwood, and have even seen occasions where car audio legends like Kicker and Alpine have done it.) People only tend to call out those entry level brands, and the problem is that this results in unwarranted shaming towards people just getting into audio and are on a budget, who are going to be the ones buying them. It becomes more about gatekeeping, just because people aren't knowledgeable about something they're new to and don't spend big bucks right away, instead of focusing on the sneaky business practices themselves.
Well it ain't as teabag as I thought it would be. Looks under capped but otherwise clean soldering, etc. Makes decent power in a small size, I'd have liked to see the thermals. I haven't been this surprised since the $50 Walmart amps (?Jensen?).
Thanks for doing this. Ive looked at the amps on temu quite a bit and always figured the numbers were inflated and im sure most are. I feel like u got lucky picking that one.
I worked at a local audio shop in the early 90s. We had an installer that was a bit..uh..eccentric. He seemed to never sleep. He built our sound room in one night. His name was Tony Greene. Well, Tony decided to install some Savard RAP 18s in his 1990 Honda Civic hatchback...8 Savard RAP 18s to be exact. The car was a total BEAST!! We dealt Savard so his car was a great sales tool when someone asked about Savard woofers...which at the time...were somewhat unknown in our area. I sold and installed quite a few Savard woofers thanks to Tony's car winning over potential buyers. Tony went on to compete occasionally with his Honda in USAC and IASCA. Man..those were the days. All of us that worked there had great systems of every configuration...from SQ machines to SPL monsters...and most of us competed quite often. I miss those days!!
Amazing, I didn't think it'll do anything near that power. Great video my man. Just looked these up, they are $140 now. I believe there are better options available and you won't have to wait too long to get. Once again your knocking it out the park.
I got 2 of thee 4 channel amps that are a different name brand...but you tested a variant of this and I got them in my daughter's car. One on highs and the other bridged to 2 12's that I have free air mounted on a board behind her rear seat. Impressed for how much I spent!
The fact that it handled .67 ohm load on the dyno surprised the _ _ _ _ out of me! That's impressive for a cheap amp! I've seen .67 humble more expensive amps made by known, recognized brands! As always Big D appreciate your video, you done a great job once again! Fellas (and ladies too) if you do not have an amp with 5 channels or more in your amp collection, then I HIGHLY recommend that you get a 5, 6, or 7 channel amp! They are awesome & the price has never been more affordable for quality high power multi channel amps! I love my 5 channel! Keep playing that 🎶 LOUD & Help your fellow man when you see a need, do your part to make this world a better place to live!
Arguably the chip style amps can achieve better sound results as they usually switch from 400khz all the way up to 1mhz I believe whereas discrete style mosfet class d full range is around 250khz.
I'm curious what factory is producing this and who else they produce for. The amp is 90% of the way there, fix the ratings and include some more features, and it's a decent product especially at the price point; one of my biggest peeves is the output block, a speaker pair should always be grouped on the same terminal bank, this would have also opened up room for a secondary sub terminal, say 1L1R-2L2R-S+-S- on the top then 3L3R-4L4R-S+S- on the bottom, this is just cleaner and works much better for speaker wire that is in a multi-core jacket with pants. I really wanted to know what the chips were, probably some TI knockoff, which may lend to original TI chips providing truer ratings. Maybe we're finally getting into the era of abundant dirt cheap tiny chip amps; if a no-name Chinese factory can produce this for a no-name brand, imagine what would happen if the lowest end companies started buying these up, imagine finding one of these at Walmart with a more recognizable name; which would honestly go well with everything else in the Walmart car audio bargain bin, and this would be fine for anyone who wants an upgrade from stock systems but doesn't want anything crazy.
I ordered 4 amplifiers using the free gift program that Temu does. Two of them are Blaupunkt, one of them is a Kuerl 4 chan, and the other is a nameless 1 channel. THEY ALL CLAMP RMS!!!! It's very surprising!!!
Overall, I'm cool with the performance, but i agree that buying from a site like that is risky. It would be a fun little amp to stuff into a power wheels for your kid or something.
Big D, gave you a like on this one even before I could skip the ad just because i thought it was really brave of you to risk a 100 bucks on that Another good video
The size vs. Power is amazing, thats why ive been dying for last couple years for you to test the arc audio 5 channel! Its tiny,and is a mean ass power plant!cant believe the clean power this amp has!my arc is better than my 2 amp combo!
Hello big fan of your here. Would you review the Rockford fosgate t3 19 inch subwoofer. There are no real reviews of this sub out there they way you can thoroughly review. Thanks for your time and attention...
My biggest concern on cheap brand amps is not really wether they do rated power or not, the question is how long can they do it for? RELIABILITY is the big question here. What good does it do if it can do rated power but goes up in smoke a week later. Then those $100 were thrown away
Correct, there are many factors involved besides power. You've got reliability, all the various protection circuits, features, the noise floor, the sound quality, whether it's going to inject noise into your automobile, etc... Lots of things, but it making rated power is a really good first test that most amplifiers are not able to pass.
For some of us newbies you should show how preamp devices alter your amp output and SQ. Maybe even how to wire and set up your electronic crossover for some of us newbies
Lol the first time I saw an amp on the website I laughed and said in my head " let's see what big D says about that" I've been wanting to see this without being the dude that asked for it 😂 it don't seem like a bad little amp and went low ohm without giving up the 👻
you have to admit..... 1. does its rated power 2. looks clean 3. basically a thousand watt 5 channel amp for 110 after taxes equals like what 11 cents a watt this is a great bargain amp to get if you wanna improve the sound in your car and add an entry level woofer for good dynamic range
Weird nostalgia seeing the multiple models and one manual thing, specifically for 90s era Profile California amps, with that giant amp being the top model
Thanks for checking in on this one. I've been wondering if it was worth rolling the dice on Temu audio stuff. Here's an example of why it could be a steal, because we all know, Temu is hit and miss.
[Verse] Feels like a dream, feels like magic Now I believe I can have it [Chorus] Ooh-ooh Temu Ooh-ooh Temu All of my wishes came true [Bridge] Shop like a billionaire (Temu) Shop like a billionaire (Temu Temu) [Chorus] Ooh-ooh Temu (Temu) Ooh-ooh Temu (Ooh)
I You should have bought the QMF-T200.4, very good sound quality class A, no crossovers or boosts, and i had fun playing with it's protection circuit (Y.B.D.). Well, at least they don't lie on the ratings for this one, and for the price...
A lot of products on Temu are fine - sure you might get the odd dud - but this even happens with big name brands!.. As for this AMP - its probably made by one of the many whitelabel amp builders that also build amps for other major brands. as for limited crossover settings or remote amp - most headunits provide all this stuff (unless your working it into an OEM system).. Ive run a few headunits (android based) and the setup and functionally built into these is impressive when it comes to the sound setup. Crossovers, time alignment, bass adjustments, EQ's etc etc..
ive been to savard its a guy working from his home shop to have one repaired a few years ago. that may have change by now but he was very nice person fixed the subwoofer and didn't charge me a small fortune. I Am from morgan city area.
Cool little amp and mad props to BEMINES for quoting rated power! I'd say this would be great for a bagger/powersports system but without marine coating it would be risky. Beyond that it really doesn't seem to serve a purpose in standard car audio since you can get more useable power in a discrete design for barely more $. Pass on this one unless you have absolutely no space to spare and HARD pass on buying anything from TEMU 😂
They're getting cheaper and cheaper in price, which is a really good thing! However, I think I'd rather get some old school Zapcos or soundstream amps for a much cleaner sound. Now, if Temu sold a 3k sub amp for $89 with free shipping, that would definitely be a game changer!!
Interesting little amp. I'd think it would benefit from some cooling being as some as it is. The numbers are pretty good given the price really. Long as it sounds semi decent. It's only $100.
I admit it I have a healthy amount of skepticism in Temu. This amp may not be bussin but it does play for the money you’re putting out on it. But it ain’t gonna bust any windshields.
Wow this little guy could decently power a whole. Car. Granted you will need to find power matching speakers but should be an easy task. Pair this with aome speakers from Recoil and you might be able to have a whole system for under $500. That is insane IMO.
Back in the day, my del sol had kicker speakers front doors and rear seat positions. And i had a 12 inch kicker comp (2007 model) subwoofer running a walmart crunch amp. Legit could hear me 2 blocks away. Buddy used to laugh at how loud my system was
😂. A week ago I was drunk as hell. And a TEMU ad popped up. And well. They suckered me in I bought 7 wristwatches and a wallet Cost me 52$ 😂 With having said that. I very well might try to buy this amp. Be pretty good for the work van
Noticing the voltage drop and how the amp reacts makese think it needs a capacitor. Or a very strong electrical system so the voltage stays at or above 14.4 volts.
The voltage sag that you see in the dyno screen is the voltages supplied by BigD's power supply to the amplifier under test. . It has nothing to do with the amp itself, it's just that D never manages the voltages properly with his testing. So what you see on rhe dyno is what power it makes with whatever voltage he's feeding it during the test. . The difference between 14V and 14.4V sounds small, but it will change the power output at the square of the voltage... If 14V @ 2 ohms = 98W then 14.4V @ 2 ohms = 103.7W . Of course, in a normal car you won't usually see even 14V at the amplifier input terminals, so this technical stuff is only about comparing the power ratings in a fair and controlled way.
@@johncoops6897 most low end amps have strange issues with the power supply. The amp itself seems fine as soon as the voltage increases the power does too. My only wonder is are Derek's batteries starting to die. I always saw over 14 at my amps.bit I am also the same person that for more than a decade has said stop looking at the charts for wire size and always go as big as your wallet will allow. Back when exo had Frankenstein I mentioned on one of his videos that he should upgrade the speaker wire to 4ga. and at the time he argued with me. Now he ran 4ga for the new build. I know I might sound out there from time to time but I have been messing around with car audio since Doug Bernards was 8 years old. Math and science is nice but they both require every single bit of info possible to give the best possible answer. You run bigger wire so you don't overtax it and cause a fire. If you plan on doing a demo vehicle do to the extended play time you have to overdue every bit of the build. You have to assume that something is going to happen instead of cutting any corners and waiting for it too happen.
Did very well but it's also $100 and not like the $30 stuff you'll find on there, so while it's not expensive it's also not cheap like a lot of the junk, either. A shame you need to have a 1-Ohm load on the sub channel to get the 300W out of it though. Would me more ideal if it did that at 2-Ohm and then was even 450W at 1-Ohm that would be fine.
Love to watch failures and lies exposed. I'm old but like good sound in my truck. Can you suggest sub amp good quality 250 watts a 4 ohm. I'm ready for more tests
@@JasonWW2000 was specifically referring to power amps. Sure, the factory has lots of sound modifications. Again for thousands more. A $70 DSP could get you into that if that is your goal. Budget building is our focus here.
@@jeffrobinson4841In my experience the amplifiers in these big multi speaker factory systems are not separate. The amps and dsp circuitry are all combined in one large housing. Honestly, if the average person who doesn't know how to install a sound system where to try and duplicate a $3,000 factory system, they would probably end up paying a lot more than that for an aftermarket system that was both installed and properly tuned by professionals. Granted, an all aftermarket system will probably sound better than a factory system, but some people would not want a bunch of aftermarket junk installed in their vehicle that could go bad or cause electrical issues. They may actually prefer it to be all factory. Especially if they think the factory system sounds really good. On the other hand, if you're the type of person that can install your own system, then you could save a lot of money doing the install yourself. Unfortunately, the amplifiers are not the most expensive parts of an aftermarket install, so saving some money in that area only helps a little.
It does what they said it would do. It's a reasonable price. Why not use it in a car or a boat that's easy to break into. I just need enough to fill up a small 80s single cab mini truck with hard hitting metal.
A stable AC to DC power supply would be advisable for the use of the amp Dyno testing, this of course would be a 220 volt AC to variable DC voltage output that utilizes High DC current stability. Using lithium batteries without alternator backup is actually an unfair test.. .
I bought the Black Diamond based on your video and input for a sub amp. Very happy with it after almost 4 years. I am thinking of upgrading my interior from the VW factory speakers. What 4 channel amp would you recommend to power the interior 6.5" ?
I mean, H.P Hong started out advertising S&I board Korean amps on Alibaba...no comparison of course, but some Chinese boards are not too bad. Before I got my wolfram 9ks I ran 2 Hifonix BG4000s on 3-Sundown zv6 18s and it got down...and that was running them at the (not) recommended resistance of .67 per amp lol...got warm but never shut down
Reliability? Sound Quality? Fire Hazard? Those are all things I would be concerned about w/ no name brands like this. I realize it’s usually the same internals in a different box snd that there are many bands w/ the same product. But there are other things to consider besides power output.
Crazy for how cheap you get a good deal, I was always wondering if you could do a test on some cerwin Vega products? I’ve got a cerwin Vega s91000.1D mono block and I’ve been wondering what the power is like on the dyno, really impressive amp nonetheless.
I was shocked when I played 300 dollars for 2 crunch pz2-4030.1D turned halfway up and absolutely slam 4 kicker l7 12 2ohm solos would love to see a real test done on one
Man for a cheap amp I couldn’t believe the speakers ch did rated power sucks the sub ch was so weak. I mean for 100$ it wouldn’t be a bad idea for someone who wants the music louder than stock without big big bass, I’m actually impressed that it didn’t blow up and did numbers
The 300W sub channel isn't "weak", you just need to use a slightly efficient sub speaker or tweak the bass gain. . You don't need 1000's of watts of amp power to get "balanced" bass. You just need to select your speakers carefully, rather than choosing some 10,000W sub that runs at like 75 db/W and needs massive power to be audible. 😉
I made a post on Bassheads on a Low Budget on Facebook about TEMU amps. I really want to see a mono amp. One of them claims 11000 watts. It’s $175.48. I was hoping to see someone get one. Dereck how about that person be you? 👍🏻
Big D! I wish you would do some more popular. Five channels like the pdx v or the TD-55. Hell this amp Looks like a de-evolution of the Kenwood Xr901.5/ Alpine pdx "Butterworth" designs, and it seems great. You should look up these amps and get some of them on your Channel. I m a big 5channel guy because I've done motorcycle sounds for years.🎉 5 Channels make great 2 amp active systems also. Frfr I love❤ these things bro. All that said... I'm gonna go get a couple of these!!! Still love the Channel waiting on the next video!

Derek ,Great Video .!! Like always!!
I would love to see you tear some of these Targa or ICE audio amplifiers in South African
They claim outrageous claims like the Mustang and Pyramid Equalizer’s
Still do
I am talking 9000 watts,RMS they claim is 60X4 ?? How does that happen
Some are Even as high as 30,000 even maybe 50,000 gigawatts lmao
I would love to see what these items amp Dyno at lmao
Anyways I believe that with Class D technology
These Temu and cheaper amplifiers will make their rates power sometimes .But when if you tested a Class A/B ? It would most likely fail
Class D makes it easy and cheap
To create digital power
Actually you have already sold out your information if you have tiktok or venmo
Down 4 sound amps are way worst than this TEMU amp. This thing is actually a newer design. The junk from JP are ancient design he just knocked off from other china amps.
@@guysgt5003would you care to elaborate on your previous comment?? I'm very interested in hearing how & why you think that this TEMU amp is superior to the various variety of D4S JP amps.
@guysgt5003 how is this 5 Channel 'BEMINES' amp "a newer design amp than the JP95"??? I can't wait for you to reply so I can gain some knowledge from you. Afterall did you fail to notice this TEMU amp does not even have a bass remote?! Hmm this cheap Chinese 5 Channel 'BEMINES' amp somehow utilizes a more "advanced design" when compared to the South Korean D4S JP amps 😂 oh for some reason I think @guysgt5003 truly believes what he commented 😅 NOW IF HE'D JUST ELABORATE AND EXPLAIN WHY THE CHEAP 'BEMINES' AMP IS SUPERIOR TO THE SOUTH KOREAN HALF BRIDGE JP AMPS...
(I'm doubting @guysgt5003 will even reply now, all crickets!)
lol i wouldn't get an alpine amp off amazon, i would buy it from alpine bro
most importantly ...they listed the correct power! IT DOES ITS RATED POWER! that's a huge deal. Does rated power on a dyno, didnt explode, didnt sound like hot garbage, and cost 100 bucks.. lets take a minute to reflect on just how awesome that is.. where we were 10-15 years ago. Great job as always Big D!
the correct power is listed, i hope its not just a fluke, but even the circuitry inside looks good. this was probably designed for a very small car in mind,
When I saw those numbers printed on it I thought "dang either they are actually being honest or we are going to be looking at 20 watts per"
Also it was probably built by 10 to 15 year olds which explains the low price.
I agree, Chinese reseller companies have very little incentive to be honest in their advertising, I always appreciate when they don't lie, good or bad
You sound like a salesman for this board. But I totally agree with you. If I could get my car audio to sound like that based on a $100 amp. I'd be majorly happy. If you're really that stressed out about the low power on the base, it's not hard to put another inline power amp in. I give this thing an 8/10 given the cost and 'bang-for-'buck'. It's a car for peats sake. Anything better than a valve radio, in my opinion, is a major plus!
It's might be anemic, BUT, it's putting out more juice than a lot of "premium" factory car audio systems. This with 4 speakers and a 10" DVC sub would sound worlds better than what you get in a lot of cars.
yea i mean 300w to sub. granted its 1ohm wich is very uncommon for a 5 channel amp in the name brand industry. but wattage of 300w into 2ohm is pretty much where 95% of the normal name brand 5ch amps sit at so... this isnt far off the mark at all.
4 x 100 is pretty nice. I think the fuses look like in our yaris. regular would be nicer.
I mean, get 4 quality coaxials and a nice 10 or a 12 and you have an incredible system for under $400, wiring, amp, box, speakers and all that. Incredible time to be alive
It's only a mono amp you can't hook all that up to it
@@dannydennis318 at 1:52 it literally shows that this is a 5 channel amplifier.
Wow! Those little 40 amp mini blades are working overtime! That thing was putting out a thousand watts total with all channels maxed out. 👏 Could you imagine having a 5 channel amp with these capabilities for this price back in the 90s?
Absolutely not. Back then, a buck a (real)watt was a STEAL.
Back in the early 2000s I got a Kenwood exelon 810d, still have it and it was 849 on sale
1000/12= 83,33 so basically perfect size fuse
I'm not mad at it....other amp makers need to take notes
Specially JL and their $500 amp with 300amp
I agree....I have a 300/4 that's not as good as this!@@gabedaxe477
but tbh this amp probably wont last for very long. the components in such amps are working on the edge to get this kind of performance. JL amps do their power for ages without even stressing or getting hot. they are meant to last, this one is meant to sell
@@sushi3377 I beg to differ. I bought a jl 300/4 brand new....used upon normal operation, two channels went out unexpectedly. All that money for a brand name amp not to last. I'll take my chances with this.
What a time to live. This amp will make most teenagers car door speakers scream as they are working a minimum wage job!
Minimum wage is like 18 an hr nowadays
What on their electric scooters?
I hear kids Uber / Lyft nowadays
20 bucks for one person at DQ yesterday. They screamed for a higher minimum wage without thinking it would raise the cost of the poor quality food they put out. Enough people quit eating out, they out of a job, period. Not supposed to raise a family on a transition job. You get work experience from those low wage jobs as kids, then grow up to the next level. Too many adult children running around. Nobody wants to grow up and have responsibilities so we have what we have today... poot. Sorry for the rant that was not aimed at you sir or ma'am... it just came out, diarrhea of the mouth so to speak
Most don't even want a driver's license much less own a car!
Mental 😂 you could find this exact board from the likes of Crescendo, Digital designs, Soundigital, B2 Audio, for MEGA markup money. It's the sort of thing they'd release. Dual 2093M based class D with your standard SMPS found in almost all car amps. You can't really go wrong as the factory isn't designing the critical bits of the amplifier, that's all done and optimised by the chip manufacturers; the factory/brand just connects everything together. Will it be the best sounding amplifier ever? No... Will it last more than 5 years? Maybe not... Will it sound absolutely fine and get really loud with good efficiency? Yep!
It's quite astonishing how class D has made such abundant power, reasonable quality and tiny size the norm these days. This may not be the last word in quality, but I would guess its better designed than a lot of car brands OEM amplifiers, and more powerful too.
I don't know about exact board, but maybe very similar. Lol
I was just thinking of building my own amp using a few driver ICs (2092s perhaps) to put juice on my sub. Output buffers and more, stouter transistors won't hurt to be stable at 1 ohm, eh?
@@JasonWW2000 ok because Sam doesn’t know what he’s talking about bro. 🤣🤣
@@TheGodofSEOOh, you're not familiar are you? You see, Sam has a habit of saying that a amplifier circuit board is the "same" as this other brand. He doesn't mean literally that it's exactly the same, he means it's the same basic layout and design.
I want the people who read these comments know what Sam meant when he said the boards are the "same".
The super duper TEMU Bemines showing Maxxsonics just how to do power ratings.
As soon as we saw Temu, I was expecting something that completely missed the quoted specs. I am impressed that it's not terrible. Is OK for what it is.
I was reluctant to order anything from Temu. However, after I had ordered a couple things I was surprised. Their stuff is decent. Not bad. Definitely not bad at all for the price.
Dude! I've ordered some boots hats, and other things from temu! The boots got compliments at work, and people liked the hats also! Unlike cheaper Amazon hats, the temu hats are made of nicer material, and shaped better. I was shocked!
Dang, decent power, no spade terminals, cheap, I'm kinda shocked! All u need us a rca bass knob and you're good to go👍
Of course, it’s not the best thing you can get, but I am impressed at that value for an all-in-one amp.
Looks like a basic DSP would go along way with this amplifier.
Blows my mind too. Cant even get these higher end companies to rate properly. But get one from Temu and be surprised lol
I'm pretty sure the parent company making these is the same company making wudi and facmogu amps or its the same build house just going off the board numbers
I'm glad to see you review this Bemines amp! I've been eyeballing this amp every time I visit Temu. It's good to see a cheap Chinese amp label true wattage on it instead of some stupid 9000W or something. This will make the perfect amp for someone who's only looking for a cheap setup that can fill in the lows a bit.
As for controlling the bass output, Temu also sells a low level bass remote that connects inline with the RCA inputs. It has two knobs, one for the volume level, and one for the crossover frequency. That will give full control of the sub section of the amp.
I may very well use this amp in my Geo Metro as it's the perfect size and power output for my purposes.
I would avoid that if it has a crossover in it.
@@JasonWW2000 Why? It works like a ZK-MT21 amp. Gives more flexibility.
@@T_Burd_75 I wasn't referring to the amplifier I was referring to the remote bass knob that you mentioned. If I were going to get a remote bass knob I would want it to be a simple, passive device.
@@JasonWW2000 I know. But he mentioned in the review that the amp lacked a remote bass control knob, something that he didn't like. Since the sub section of the amp uses separate RCA inputs, that can be controlled by a controller connected inline with the RCA cables. And having level control and a variable sub crossover control, you can adjust what frequency you want the bass to kick in and how loud when it does. And you won't have to crawl under the seat with a tiny screwdriver to do it.
@@T_Burd_75 Crawling under the seat to adjust the crossover point is a one-time job. You basically set it and forget it.
The potential issue that you're not thinking of is that the active crossover circuitry built into the remote might add noise, distortion or clipping which the amplifier is going to amplify. I personally wouldn't take that risk. I'd rather keep the remote bass knob a simple passive device, a stereo potentiometer, and then have all the crossover circuitry done either in the amplifier or upstream in a DSP. That's just me, though. Maybe the particular device you're talking about is perfectly fine and isn't going to cause any problems. I can't think of any practical use for adjusting the crossover frequency in the remote, though. I would probably just set the frequency and then hot glue the knob in that position so I don't accidentally change it.
By the way, what is the name or model of the remote knob you're talking about?
Honest power ratings are always welcome! The amp is a winner in my book 🙂 ... I'm going on I don't know how many years in disbelief that brands like Boss, Maxxsonics, Sound Around, Epsilon, etc... haven't been sued out of business for lying about power ratings!
Pretty much every company has been guilty of slapping a max number on the front of their product or packaging(reputable electronics giants like Sony, Pioneer, Kenwood, and have even seen occasions where car audio legends like Kicker and Alpine have done it.)
People only tend to call out those entry level brands, and the problem is that this results in unwarranted shaming towards people just getting into audio and are on a budget, who are going to be the ones buying them. It becomes more about gatekeeping, just because people aren't knowledgeable about something they're new to and don't spend big bucks right away, instead of focusing on the sneaky business practices themselves.
The reason they haven't been sued is because it's not against the law.
Did you forget Pyramid. They were the worst.
Well it ain't as teabag as I thought it would be. Looks under capped but otherwise clean soldering, etc. Makes decent power in a small size, I'd have liked to see the thermals. I haven't been this surprised since the $50 Walmart amps (?Jensen?).
Thanks for doing this. Ive looked at the amps on temu quite a bit and always figured the numbers were inflated and im sure most are. I feel like u got lucky picking that one.
Yes, every brand could be very different from one another.
I worked at a local audio shop in the early 90s. We had an installer that was a bit..uh..eccentric. He seemed to never sleep. He built our sound room in one night.
His name was Tony Greene. Well, Tony decided to install some Savard RAP 18s in his 1990 Honda Civic hatchback...8 Savard RAP 18s to be exact. The car was a total BEAST!! We dealt Savard so his car was a great sales tool when someone asked about Savard woofers...which at the time...were somewhat unknown in our area. I sold and installed quite a few Savard woofers thanks to Tony's car winning over potential buyers.
Tony went on to compete occasionally with his Honda in USAC and IASCA. Man..those were the days. All of us that worked there had great systems of every configuration...from SQ machines to SPL monsters...and most of us competed quite often. I miss those days!!
Thank you for testing a “Temu” amp, I was really curious about the quality and the truth in numbers. You da man!!!
I opened my phone to 2 alerts. Temu and big D talking about temu amps 😂
I can promise you'll only get one alert from me....TEMU on the other hand stays constantly firing
They definitely send a bunch of messages 😂😂😂 They always make me laugh. “ Hello Dear, don’t pass up these exceptional deals” 😆😆😆
Not a bad amp for someone not looking for crazy bass. I'm surprised!
Yeah I have an Amp for my subs, I would add this to push my door speakers in my xj
Amazing, I didn't think it'll do anything near that power. Great video my man. Just looked these up, they are $140 now. I believe there are better options available and you won't have to wait too long to get. Once again your knocking it out the park.
😱 BLOWN AWAY BY THE PERFORMANCE
Glad you did a review on the amp I have been watching those amps for a month now .Now we get to the meats an greens
I got 2 of thee 4 channel amps that are a different name brand...but you tested a variant of this and I got them in my daughter's car. One on highs and the other bridged to 2 12's that I have free air mounted on a board behind her rear seat. Impressed for how much I spent!
The fact that it handled .67 ohm load on the dyno surprised the _ _ _ _ out of me! That's impressive for a cheap amp! I've seen .67 humble more expensive amps made by known, recognized brands!
As always Big D appreciate your video, you done a great job once again!
Fellas (and ladies too) if you do not have an amp with 5 channels or more in your amp collection, then I HIGHLY recommend that you get a 5, 6, or 7 channel amp! They are awesome & the price has never been more affordable for quality high power multi channel amps! I love my 5 channel!
Keep playing that 🎶 LOUD & Help your fellow man when you see a need, do your part to make this world a better place to live!
This would be worth for the four channel capabilities alone. Keep up the good work sir, your expertise is greatly appreciated, and well enjoyed.
i expected this thing to do 50 watts max.. but im impressed :o
They have actual good amps 1500 2k 3 5 7 k models and u can see share the same board as allot of main brand amps.
I've ordered some stuff from Temu. The shipping is a little sketchy, but I was able to buy some items you cannot get here in the US for my air rifle
Arguably the chip style amps can achieve better sound results as they usually switch from 400khz all the way up to 1mhz I believe whereas discrete style mosfet class d full range is around 250khz.
I'm curious what factory is producing this and who else they produce for. The amp is 90% of the way there, fix the ratings and include some more features, and it's a decent product especially at the price point; one of my biggest peeves is the output block, a speaker pair should always be grouped on the same terminal bank, this would have also opened up room for a secondary sub terminal, say 1L1R-2L2R-S+-S- on the top then 3L3R-4L4R-S+S- on the bottom, this is just cleaner and works much better for speaker wire that is in a multi-core jacket with pants. I really wanted to know what the chips were, probably some TI knockoff, which may lend to original TI chips providing truer ratings. Maybe we're finally getting into the era of abundant dirt cheap tiny chip amps; if a no-name Chinese factory can produce this for a no-name brand, imagine what would happen if the lowest end companies started buying these up, imagine finding one of these at Walmart with a more recognizable name; which would honestly go well with everything else in the Walmart car audio bargain bin, and this would be fine for anyone who wants an upgrade from stock systems but doesn't want anything crazy.
I ordered 4 amplifiers using the free gift program that Temu does. Two of them are Blaupunkt, one of them is a Kuerl 4 chan, and the other is a nameless 1 channel. THEY ALL CLAMP RMS!!!! It's very surprising!!!
Overall, I'm cool with the performance, but i agree that buying from a site like that is risky. It would be a fun little amp to stuff into a power wheels for your kid or something.
Big D, gave you a like on this one even before I could skip the ad just because i thought it was really brave of you to risk a 100 bucks on that
Another good video
The size vs. Power is amazing, thats why ive been dying for last couple years for you to test the arc audio 5 channel! Its tiny,and is a mean ass power plant!cant believe the clean power this amp has!my arc is better than my 2 amp combo!
Let Arc know!
The xdi 805?
Temu got it done it works and did rated watts enough said
Hola amigo Big Dummy, saludos desde Colombia, amamos tus videos!!!
Hello big fan of your here. Would you review the Rockford fosgate t3 19 inch subwoofer. There are no real reviews of this sub out there they way you can thoroughly review. Thanks for your time and attention...
My biggest concern on cheap brand amps is not really wether they do rated power or not, the question is how long can they do it for? RELIABILITY is the big question here. What good does it do if it can do rated power but goes up in smoke a week later. Then those $100 were thrown away
Correct, there are many factors involved besides power. You've got reliability, all the various protection circuits, features, the noise floor, the sound quality, whether it's going to inject noise into your automobile, etc... Lots of things, but it making rated power is a really good first test that most amplifiers are not able to pass.
been wanting to do this for so long thank god you did it🙏🏼
For some of us newbies you should show how preamp devices alter your amp output and SQ.
Maybe even how to wire and set up your electronic crossover for some of us newbies
About time i been waiting to see u dyno 1 if these temu amps they actual giod power amps if u look
Good for starter amp, get 2 sets of h yanka 6x9 and a Skar Audio IX-10 D2 or 12 inch and a box. Nice little set up for 300 - 400 bucks.
Lol the first time I saw an amp on the website I laughed and said in my head " let's see what big D says about that" I've been wanting to see this without being the dude that asked for it 😂 it don't seem like a bad little amp and went low ohm without giving up the 👻
you have to admit.....
1. does its rated power
2. looks clean
3. basically a thousand watt 5 channel amp for 110 after taxes equals like what 11 cents a watt
this is a great bargain amp to get if you wanna improve the sound in your car and add an entry level woofer for good dynamic range
Weird nostalgia seeing the multiple models and one manual thing, specifically for 90s era Profile California amps, with that giant amp being the top model
Thanks for checking in on this one. I've been wondering if it was worth rolling the dice on Temu audio stuff. Here's an example of why it could be a steal, because we all know, Temu is hit and miss.
Just remember that Temu is not a brand, it's a marketplace similar to eBay or Amazon. So you still have to choose the right brand.
@@JasonWW2000 I wasn't implying it was a brand. It's the same thing as calling something an Amazon, Ebay, or Walmart amp.
@@89GCool.

You always keep me interested in your videos. Thank u
Where was this amp when we were out cruising 30 years ago??
I am impressed!
it's amazing the power you get for the price nowadays.
I You should have bought the QMF-T200.4, very good sound quality class A, no crossovers or boosts, and i had fun playing with it's protection circuit (Y.B.D.).
Well, at least they don't lie on the ratings for this one, and for the price...
A lot of products on Temu are fine - sure you might get the odd dud - but this even happens with big name brands!.. As for this AMP - its probably made by one of the many whitelabel amp builders that also build amps for other major brands. as for limited crossover settings or remote amp - most headunits provide all this stuff (unless your working it into an OEM system).. Ive run a few headunits (android based) and the setup and functionally built into these is impressive when it comes to the sound setup. Crossovers, time alignment, bass adjustments, EQ's etc etc..
As soon as i saw ol'Rick, I knew it was gonna be good 👍
For a pickup or hatchback "beater with a heater", this would be perfect.
Always great content brother! Thanks for rolling the dice.
Wow Savard is still making speakers?! I live in Baton Rouge I remember HiQs and RAPs back in the early 90s. Had no idea they were still making them.
ive been to savard its a guy working from his home shop to have one repaired a few years ago. that may have change by now but he was very nice person fixed the subwoofer and didn't charge me a small fortune. I Am from morgan city area.
When I drank soda, Mellow Yellow was the BEST!
Cool little amp and mad props to BEMINES for quoting rated power! I'd say this would be great for a bagger/powersports system but without marine coating it would be risky. Beyond that it really doesn't seem to serve a purpose in standard car audio since you can get more useable power in a discrete design for barely more $. Pass on this one unless you have absolutely no space to spare and HARD pass on buying anything from TEMU 😂
Love the content Big D. Keep it up!
I'm shocked--Temu isn't Etsy for sure. I would have bet on flea market amp power!
They're getting cheaper and cheaper in price, which is a really good thing!
However, I think I'd rather get some old school Zapcos or soundstream amps for a much cleaner sound.
Now, if Temu sold a 3k sub amp for $89 with free shipping, that would definitely be a game changer!!
I was so waiting to see 2 ohm bridged on the main channels... we need some torture testing.
Interesting little amp. I'd think it would benefit from some cooling being as some as it is. The numbers are pretty good given the price really. Long as it sounds semi decent. It's only $100.
I admit it I have a healthy amount of skepticism in Temu. This amp may not be bussin but it does play for the money you’re putting out on it. But it ain’t gonna bust any windshields.
For a C-note though... be a good "mom" amp for her classical drive music.
Thanks as always.
Thank you ... I am guessing before watching vid...You took one for the team...
Eatin my words...
I don't hate it. I'm not going to run out and replace my PDX-V9 with it, but it would do alright in my Mini Cooper with the Kicker Slim 12".
Wow this little guy could decently power a whole. Car. Granted you will need to find power matching speakers but should be an easy task. Pair this with aome speakers from Recoil and you might be able to have a whole system for under $500. That is insane IMO.
You don't need power matching speakers.
That was great! Can we see more from TEMU?
Back in the day, my del sol had kicker speakers front doors and rear seat positions. And i had a 12 inch kicker comp (2007 model) subwoofer running a walmart crunch amp. Legit could hear me 2 blocks away. Buddy used to laugh at how loud my system was
Can it run Steeve Meade's home subwoofers? 😅
😂. A week ago I was drunk as hell. And a TEMU ad popped up. And well. They suckered me in
I bought 7 wristwatches and a wallet Cost me 52$ 😂
With having said that. I very well might try to buy this amp. Be pretty good for the work van
you will be very happy in about 4 weeks....😊
I like the minimal mechanical noise dromnthese subs!
Now I wanna do a temu build 😂
Noticing the voltage drop and how the amp reacts makese think it needs a capacitor. Or a very strong electrical system so the voltage stays at or above 14.4 volts.
he had even 8k rms with amplifiers, idk why it has this drop with 80 amps draw
@@6mariooo235 I'm thinking his battery bank is becoming weak or that amp is a glutton.
@@WilliamBonac-h2c maybe
The voltage sag that you see in the dyno screen is the voltages supplied by BigD's power supply to the amplifier under test.
.
It has nothing to do with the amp itself, it's just that D never manages the voltages properly with his testing.
So what you see on rhe dyno is what power it makes with whatever voltage he's feeding it during the test.
.
The difference between 14V and 14.4V sounds small, but it will change the power output at the square of the voltage...
If 14V @ 2 ohms = 98W then 14.4V @ 2 ohms = 103.7W
.
Of course, in a normal car you won't usually see even 14V at the amplifier input terminals, so this technical stuff is only about comparing the power ratings in a fair and controlled way.
@@johncoops6897 most low end amps have strange issues with the power supply.
The amp itself seems fine as soon as the voltage increases the power does too.
My only wonder is are Derek's batteries starting to die.
I always saw over 14 at my amps.bit I am also the same person that for more than a decade has said stop looking at the charts for wire size and always go as big as your wallet will allow. Back when exo had Frankenstein I mentioned on one of his videos that he should upgrade the speaker wire to 4ga. and at the time he argued with me. Now he ran 4ga for the new build.
I know I might sound out there from time to time but I have been messing around with car audio since Doug Bernards was 8 years old.
Math and science is nice but they both require every single bit of info possible to give the best possible answer.
You run bigger wire so you don't overtax it and cause a fire. If you plan on doing a demo vehicle do to the extended play time you have to overdue every bit of the build. You have to assume that something is going to happen instead of cutting any corners and waiting for it too happen.
Try testing the Audison Hv Venti amplifier @williston Audio Labs
Did very well but it's also $100 and not like the $30 stuff you'll find on there, so while it's not expensive it's also not cheap like a lot of the junk, either. A shame you need to have a 1-Ohm load on the sub channel to get the 300W out of it though. Would me more ideal if it did that at 2-Ohm and then was even 450W at 1-Ohm that would be fine.
Yah not that great of a deal. But hey. It makes rated!
Love to watch failures and lies exposed. I'm old but like good sound in my truck. Can you suggest sub amp good quality 250 watts a 4 ohm. I'm ready for more tests
It’s a clean d amp! D’amore amp!!
A pair would give you a 10 channel set up. Easily equal to $3K factory amped system. For dirt cheap.
That is not a fair comparison. A factory amped system is also going to be specifically DSP tuned with time alignment, crossovers and EQ.
@@JasonWW2000 was specifically referring to power amps. Sure, the factory has lots of sound modifications. Again for thousands more. A $70 DSP could get you into that if that is your goal. Budget building is our focus here.
@@jeffrobinson4841In my experience the amplifiers in these big multi speaker factory systems are not separate. The amps and dsp circuitry are all combined in one large housing.
Honestly, if the average person who doesn't know how to install a sound system where to try and duplicate a $3,000 factory system, they would probably end up paying a lot more than that for an aftermarket system that was both installed and properly tuned by professionals.
Granted, an all aftermarket system will probably sound better than a factory system, but some people would not want a bunch of aftermarket junk installed in their vehicle that could go bad or cause electrical issues. They may actually prefer it to be all factory. Especially if they think the factory system sounds really good.
On the other hand, if you're the type of person that can install your own system, then you could save a lot of money doing the install yourself.
Unfortunately, the amplifiers are not the most expensive parts of an aftermarket install, so saving some money in that area only helps a little.
@@jeffrobinson4841PS, there's no such thing as a $70 dsp. They typically start at around $400 and go up from there.
It does what they said it would do. It's a reasonable price. Why not use it in a car or a boat that's easy to break into. I just need enough to fill up a small 80s single cab mini truck with hard hitting metal.
A stable AC to DC power supply would be advisable for the use of the amp Dyno testing, this of course would be a 220 volt AC to variable DC voltage output that utilizes High DC current stability.
Using lithium batteries without alternator backup is actually an unfair test.. .
What about driving all chans simultaneously at max power? Overheat or bad clipping maybe? hmm...
I bought the Black Diamond based on your video and input for a sub amp. Very happy with it after almost 4 years. I am thinking of upgrading my interior from the VW factory speakers. What 4 channel amp would you recommend to power the interior 6.5" ?
I think this is the FIRST time I’ve seen an amp do almost exactly what’s printed on the heatsink.
I mean, H.P Hong started out advertising S&I board Korean amps on Alibaba...no comparison of course, but some Chinese boards are not too bad. Before I got my wolfram 9ks I ran 2 Hifonix BG4000s on 3-Sundown zv6 18s and it got down...and that was running them at the (not) recommended resistance of .67 per amp lol...got warm but never shut down
😂 Big D... you rock 🎸 💪 gotta try bumpn sumthn
Reliability? Sound Quality? Fire Hazard? Those are all things I would be concerned about w/ no name brands like this. I realize it’s usually the same internals in a different box snd that there are many bands w/ the same product. But there are other things to consider besides power output.
i think a amp like this would be a great factory amp replacment with factory sub vehicles is most likely the idea behind the design
Crazy for how cheap you get a good deal, I was always wondering if you could do a test on some cerwin Vega products? I’ve got a cerwin Vega s91000.1D mono block and I’ve been wondering what the power is like on the dyno, really impressive amp nonetheless.
I was shocked when I played 300 dollars for 2 crunch pz2-4030.1D turned halfway up and absolutely slam 4 kicker l7 12 2ohm solos would love to see a real test done on one
Man for a cheap amp I couldn’t believe the speakers ch did rated power sucks the sub ch was so weak. I mean for 100$ it wouldn’t be a bad idea for someone who wants the music louder than stock without big big bass, I’m actually impressed that it didn’t blow up and did numbers
The 300W sub channel isn't "weak", you just need to use a slightly efficient sub speaker or tweak the bass gain.
.
You don't need 1000's of watts of amp power to get "balanced" bass. You just need to select your speakers carefully, rather than choosing some 10,000W sub that runs at like 75 db/W and needs massive power to be audible. 😉
I made a post on Bassheads on a Low Budget on Facebook about TEMU amps. I really want to see a mono amp. One of them claims 11000 watts. It’s $175.48. I was hoping to see someone get one. Dereck how about that person be you? 👍🏻
Big D! I wish you would do some more popular. Five channels like the pdx v or the TD-55. Hell this amp Looks like a de-evolution of the Kenwood Xr901.5/ Alpine pdx "Butterworth" designs, and it seems great. You should look up these amps and get some of them on your Channel. I m a big 5channel guy because I've done motorcycle sounds for years.🎉 5 Channels make great 2 amp active systems also. Frfr I love❤ these things bro.
All that said... I'm gonna go get a couple of these!!!
Still love the Channel waiting on the next video!
