    Just ordered the d 6-1200 Friday. Saves a shot ton of money on RCA, cables, install space and overall equipment too

    I wasn't surprised a bit. Everything I've bought from audio control new or used I still have battered bruised not taken care of they all still work perfectly.

    Great video like always, keeping them honest. Damn the price on these are just crazy, I'll pick another amp that can do just as good for a fraction of the cost. But if you got it, you get it. Keep up the good work bro.

    Hi Steve!!! From my understanding you say audiocontrol makes good quality stuff,so what do you think of their DSPS and line drivers and have you ever used them in any of your cars or installs?? I have a Audiocontrol DQDX DSP which I haven't installed yet,would you say that's a good processer to use when installed correctly in a high end sound system??✌✌✌

    • @josea.garcia3994
      @josea.garcia3994 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Well bro you would have to ask somebody who has had experience and is familar with both of those amps!!! Now from what I have heard about the Hifonics Brutus amps are really good but I dont know how it would fair up with the AUDIOCONTROL amp!!!!! Sorry bro!!!!

    ...love these test vids, but what about those of us with a nice sounding amp that's considered a "low budget" amp? I have a 4500-watt max Power Acoustik and I'm VERY curious as to how much farther I can push it. I only ran it at 1.3 ohms even tho it's stable down to 1... GT1-4500D

    • @meade916
      @meade916  8 ปีที่แล้ว +15

    • @lancemason9424
      @lancemason9424 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah, I figured it'd be an exaggerated number, even at the 2700 watts rms. but if I could get a true 1200-1500 out of it, I'm happy for the price...

    • @rowboyto156
      @rowboyto156 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      no way its pushing 3k, it has 4 awg connection so its probably pushing 1k at best and around 400 @ 2 ohms. if you want to test it get a multi meter and clamp meter, multi meter to measure volts and clamp meter to measure amps. connect the multi meter to the speaker output of the amp with the sub connected to get the 2 ohm load, clamp the clamp meter to the positive side of the speaker output, put closest to the amp as possible. play a 40hz tone then multiply the numbers you get from both meters together and you get your watts
