If you remember, back in December, i received a D'Amore Engineering 1500.4 Amplifier (the $8600 Christmas Gift). After playing with it, i fell in love with it. I decided to run these in my Escalade the moment i heard it. Even though it is a Hi Res SQ amplifier, it still has the capability to give me what i still need, and that is LOUD. I decided i wanted to run 2 1500.2 Amps on my subwoofers (not yet chosen) so i ordered those up. Upon thinking about it some more, 4 channels is not enough for my front stage. Plenty of power, just not enough channels. So i ordered a 2nd 1500.4 amp. Now i will have 8 channels for my front stage. Perfect! After waiting a few months, i just received my production units! I can't wait to get started. The shop is super busy and i have a million things to do, but i know i want to do this bad! It is long overdue!

Dream amps right there!! They are literally the most beautiful car audio amps ever made. Absolutely breathtaking
i wish you were here to fondle one of them! :D or all of them LOL!!
Agreed 1000%
Finding buyers for those type of amps won't be hard once they know what they're hearing....
This video has been one of the coolest, most informative, car audio videos, I've seen. All of the ups and emotions in this video. My heart is literally racing after watching this. I cannot imagine what it was like to open that box and see one of those amps. Let alone, pull the cover off of it. LET ALONE, video call with the engineer, and hear his KICK ASS story about going in buddy's man cave, and watch him tweak all of his resistors. Jesus man, what a cool ass video. It really gives me an appreciation for quality/handmade amps. Headed out to the garage now, to tinker with my car audio. Killer vid man! Props!
It's funny that he brings up Japan. I've lived in Japan for the past 8 years. They are REALLY big on sound quality here.
I can't even begin to explain how blown away I am about these amps. I can only imagine what your car's gonna sound like with those beauties, Steve. 😍👌 Tony really knocked it out of the park.
As a West Indian I approve of the classic Reggae in the background...Bob Marley, Gregory Isaacs, Steel Pulse, Chaka Demus & Pliers
Gallis Camferd yup I agree and heard em too..grew up as a kid in the late 70's and 80's on my native am. reserve listening to Marley, Eek, yellowman, black uhuru, and dem.. ✌😎💨💨
Same here too bro
Wow! These amps are truly in a class of their own. D amore really went above and beyond in creating these amps, I mean going to Japan to do a 40 hour tuning session says alot
and that guy doing it turning the knobs listening for "emotion" ...deciding which parts to use based off of that LOL. Crazy.
own 2 I was dubious they beat pretty much every other car amp made not dagistono but high level home amp sound in a car I own audiowave mcc602tm venti mpz even revelation audio phass you name it I own and played them all the damore is only rivaled in solid state by audiowave cr series if that they are worth every penny and I was nit a fan of damore before I am now but as Tony said Japanese here not California Arizona types too ignorant
Is the man himself repping a 1320 shirt? I thought he was a god in audio, but this man also likes them horsepowers too 👍👍
Its true about Japan being very SQ oriented, my alpine 3566 which was made in japan sounds off the charts good, may not be a power monster but it just sounds super clean, new alpine doesn’t even compare to it. I bet these D’Amore amps will sound badass. Lots of clean power!

Truly works of art. I know I’ll never be able to afford those, but enjoy the great sound they will produce. I’m am lucky enough to have two old school A/D/S PH15 6 channels that will be in a build I’m planning on in the future. Again enjoy brother.
not gonna lie thats probly the most clean amp iv seen on the inside that was clean!
Night nurse and the reggae music in the background ❤ .. shout out from the Caribbean
@BASSN SANE - first of all, LOL!!! please!!! You ain't ever even been in the same state as one of these amps. Oh and even if it was true, which it ain't, nobody in their right mind would run that power acoustik flea market shit over these. Too funny though. Bummer i have to delete your comment with your link in it. You acting thirsty for attention just got you banned.
Can't wait for this build. Dont leave anything out! Love the content.
That's some SERIOUS packing... no chance of damage in route.... DAMN
Been waiting on this since the second rebuild of the Tahoe. The just because sub box is finally here but for the caddy!!!!
Love the info from Tony. He’s an insanely smart dude
Yeah Tony is a new age car audio pioneer fosho
Steve Meade always bringing us Bassheads 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Content 👍🏼😎‼ 🤯🤯 This Amp is so freaking Amazing inside & out..
The packaging is awesome I just like to have the empty boxes to make into storage. Over a decade later still great videos
I imagine this going like the IS-F build and that has me excited. Stay blessed Steve!
i'm not blessed. But i know you mean well! thanks OG!
Man those are beautiful and beastly at the same time ! can't wait to see the mad build that comes out of your head on this one !
Can't wait to here the power these amplifier are going to drop ,
Seriously bro I could tear up. This video was just so wonderful. I love this
$35000? Damn that's way out of the budget I'll ever have for an amp
Dammm can’t wait for the caddy build videos
Wow, the guts look like nothing I've seen before. Awesome stuff. Very informative.
omg he really designed it from scratch. Genius !
GUTS! Damn, never seen anything like that. Lol i think Tony had to take a leak, he kept pacing back and forth.
Can y’all show the D’Amore guy’s Fitbit results after the call ended? I can’t watch him walking around anymore. Feeling dizzy!
he even said the same thing when i talked to him after the video hahah!
Holy Shnikeys! Those are badass!!! Someday when I hit the lottery, I'll buy one for a budget build!!!
GOOD COST MONEY . ITS NICE WHEN THERE ARE NO BEEN COUNTERS . AND YOU CAN LET LOOSE. AND TURN OUT A GOOD AMP . LOTS OF HEAD ROOM .
Those are sensational! Thanks for sharing the opening. I still have my original Diamond Boxx...
I love yo get my hands on one of the crates. Even thir shipping boxes are bad ass
I see that this amplifier is an updated Rockford fosgate 1000.2!
fuck no. Not even close.
Absolutely awesome bro! Can’t wait to see what’s next!
Man those look so overbuilt Steve it is just my kind of craziness man!
Yo correct me if I'm wrong but it looks to me like D'Amore is wearing a 1320 racing shirt lol.
One day I’m going to achieve this level and have a actual sound system💪🏽 only 15.
First of brother. Beautiful Amps.
Look at the legs on tasks, it not extended out. Can fold accidentally if heavy weight on table..
Can't wait to see ends product on the amps.
I wonder if Tony put any of the parts/components he used in the T15K? Tony is a amp building badass. I'd definitely recommend D'Amore.
70% efficient for class AB, that is crazy!
Ya higher than some class D
Love the white amps and informative info
When will the dd1 plus become available?
I absolutely can't wait to see these peices of art in the caddy slappin.
Damn, I am commenting @0:08 in the video. Steak knife about to do hella work and some major shit bout to go down! oooooo wwwweeeeeeee
😱😱😱 Super jealous over here! Those are beautiful 😍
arnoldgaming appreciate it mang!
Some Hutchison Audio subwoofers would be cool to see running off those bad boys
OHHHHH WTF!!! GREGORY ISSACS POPS ON THE STEREO AND I GET CHILLS lmao. Niiiiiiight nurrrrse lol hawaii loves us some roots reggae.
Them are sweet, but im more interested in the twin turbos.
So happy for this man!!! Tahoe still my favorite but this here going beat down some shit fo real
INFUCKINGCREDIBLE STEVE!! Can't wait for the build!!
With your skills an amp rack suspending them from above could look cool. Great looking amps by the way!!
This Looks Very Interesting! Something New To Learn!
Use crates as part of amp rack and the top of the boxes as sides or back of box... integrate the top of the crates some how....
Would love to hear these driving a pair of LS50's or Dev-Tec's Demand series.
I hear some Gregory Issas in the back ground 👌👌👌
Amazing Design. Beautiful Amplifier.
Lookin good Steve 💪
would love to see some old style project playlists, installation and explanations.
it'd be awesome if the videos aren't too long as well :)
sure. That is easy. Look back at one of my 1500 other video's. Plenty of those.
35k those things better make me pancakes every morning 🥺
WITH a side of bacon...
Lol
Those are absolutely gorgeous I'll never be able to afford something like that but I have a serious question I have 3 matching subs and 2 matching amps could I unify them by running 1 amp on 1voice coil of each sub and the other amp on the other syncing them all together
Try it
Wow, I would LOVE to sample those in my system.
Greetings from Mexico
WHEN WILL DD1 PLUS COME BACK???
next week. I never imagined we would sell out again even after upping production on them by 10x. Got a ton more on the way though :)
Hey Steve howdy from the Bay.. Love your vids and been a fan for years. I wonder if some of the High Powered vehicles have enough juice to start a vehicle.. that would be some test if possible.. ha ha.
Shoutout to 1320 video!
He make me dizzy lol watching him walk back in fort make me dizzy lol.. love the qmp
Hey steve I know I'm going way back with this question but do u like AGM battery or Lithium xspower came out with some new lithium batteries
watching in the philippines!!!
hey man!
Really nice amps, but I was confused, when he advertised for the green caps, but don't even know whats behind? So just buy them, because the seller says, they are expensive and made for high end audio? Thats little strange.
he didn't "advertise" anything. Would you rather he made up some story for you? He is saying it is the best there is. The caps are made for high end car audio. He explained a little of why it is better but, bro settle down. It's just a cap. I swear some of you make the biggest deal out of the dumbest shit. There is NOBODY better than Tony D so if he says it is the best that is all you need to know.
That's cause he is a Californian and did not design it Japanese?
Let’s see them in a sq build and see what they’re really worth
I own 2 I was dubious they beat pretty much every other car amp made not dagistono but high level home amp sound in a car I own audiowave mcc602tm venti mpz even revelation audio phass you name it I own and played them all the damore is only rivaled in solid state by audiowave cr series if that they are worth every penny and I was nit a fan of damore before I am now but as Tony said Japanese here not California Arizona types too ignorant
it is a work of art, it is beautiful
awesome video ... those amps are sick
Absolute sound quality, that'll beat the back of ya head in

Very very nice brother 👌
Well deserved hard works pays off
Those amps look badass

Holy crap, I thought my Mosconi amps were nice!

Hey Steve very nice amps but like the other person said too much for my blood lol.. but I can see in how whn u put those four amps in the caddy tht will jst boggle the mind in where and how to put in spots plus the whole nine well hope to c tht video as well soon or later... Lol peace stay safe
Damn that a beast of a amp!!!
I’m putting a similar amp combo in my 93 Geo Tracker

Wea i kan buy da dd1 plus
How much total power steve
sprint car are direct drive straight of the motor to the diff
Anyone know what kind of chair/pod Tony was sitting in? Just curious what it does.
Looks like a scorpion seat to me, I could be wrong but that's what I'm thinking. They're INCREDIBLY pricey for my wallet.
Ah shit! The ol school steak knife 👍👍
Was it me or was homie going in and out the same room ? Like its was a pattern man im trippin i don't even smoke that wacky tabacky.
And thats a beautiful amp
