Always impressive to see an amp do more than rated. Awesome to have a way to keep the mfg's in check now...if they are 'fudging', we'll know. I had an old school MMats D200HC before, wish I would've tested it before selling...
I had an old school dc1400.05 on two RE Audio 15" SX series @0.5 ohms. Never got hot, a bit warmer than ambient. Didn't need a alternator upgrade or even a cap. Added a 4.0 farad cap even though it only held 0.2vdc higher system voltage, after adding the capacitor. Wouldn't drop below 13.6vdc at idle. It was, BY FAR, the BEST sub amp I have ever used or seen, with a 1400w RMS output rating. The 15" RE Audo SX series subs, with dual 2ohm VC, were rated for 750w RMS/1500W MAX. The combination was great, pushed them hard for 16-20hrs nearly every day for 2-3yrs.
Retired military and I love my music! Glad to see someone still using USA items in their shop. Also I am happy to find your very informative site since I am starting to get into SPL competitions. You have given me many ideas with your installs and videos,for that sir I thank you. Hollerin at ya from a small town of 500 people called White City,Kansas. Thanks again for all the good videos
after getting a mmats 1400.5 and running 2x 15" RE audio sx series at 0.5ohm, I have always suggested them. Only sub amplifier I have ever used that has been able to be pushed hard all day without overheating. Very high quality amps!
Yep I saw a Chevy blazer like late 80s early 90s at the advanced audio store in gulf Port Mississippi in like 2003 maybe it's was a spl truck but it had 8 18 inch mmats juggernaut subs in it on the old mmats 1400s on each sub and I watched it break the steering column in this blazer it was f n gnarly it made a believer out of me lol
+lstephenson247 They do overheat. I had one and it died but I bought another one. Added fans and its all good. I had the 2000.1 older model. They are great.
Cleveland, OH - Been running MMATS for years. their 2k amp is nearly the size as their 3k and the 3k is the same size as the 4k. The 4k is the amp that you can mess around with the nominal. There is no protection and people have clamped ridiculous numbers out of them. But they don't carry a warranty. Use these amps at their rated impedance and you will not have a problem though! I loved my d300hc, d2100.1, m3000.1, and HD4000.05. They are rated at 13.8V btw.
Flo-rida here! U should try it on .62 ohms. They are designed to go that low. And others go lower to 1/2 ohms. Keep the good work! Thanks for the videos.
@@derekquinones8614 No, it isn't. They have a 2000.05 that is designed for half ohm - same power at half ohm as this at 1ohm. I love the way Mmats does it. You buy the model amp that puts out the amount of power you need, and you chose the version of it based on how you'll be wired. These start at 600 and go up to 4k - though the 4k is a "competition only" amp, with no warranty, and not designed to pump 4k watts continuously. It Is basically the 3k without any protection. You'll kill it trying to push 4kw daily on it.
Timothy Hinton Well MMats amp's use very high end circuitry, all the components and circuit board are pure copper, it has no protection circuit as well, very efficient amp, that's why its so expensive.
Anchorage Alaska, and judging from your "gut-shot" I'd have to say that's a Class D amp... 1% and clipping were very close to same, but surge power really shined.
you don t going to believe shouting out from nicaragua central america, i been following your channel since a few years ago, keep it up master, in other hands i own one of those mmatts amps de 3000d.since 9 years ago and i can tell is all you can ask on an amplifier.
Shed some more light Steve that comment about companies run from the ad-1 is so true and even some companies get by with cea ratings a 4 ohms on a 1 ohm stable sub amp but they don't state what ohm they past the cea test lol! And my city is Pikeville, Ky keep em coming!!
I run a mmats 3500.1 running on a 2 12in go audio SSD subs and I love it the amp doesn't even get hot hardly luke warm at most. Mmats power for the win
Wow, does what it says on the tin and then some! I like seeing the 1% numbers and @Clipping numbers so close like that. Tells me there's some actual quality happening there. :)
Yo steve, we need an update on that SMD 12 man.... or even a vid!! really looking forward to seeing more, looks like ill be running a couple here in the bay area soon hopefully, thanks again meade
Have you ever dyno'ed an Adcom amp? They seem to be overbuilt for their output and I've heard for many years they run super low impedance loads without dying. Supposedly the board power traces will give out before the components will...
Ft Lauderdale Fl. Love ur vids bro. lots of us down here run Jl amps slash series would be sweet if u can throw one on the dyno and see if they really do their power. Keep the vids coming.
Any chance you would be able to dyno a JL Audio 1200/1v3 the slash series? I can't find a video of any on a dyno anywhere so you would have the first video of it!
Port St. Lucie fla in da house rocking those 12 inch sundowns hahahaha I just want you to know I would give anything for mr Meade to build me a custom box for my 2008 Yukon
Great stuff! I'm curious, have you ever done any thermal testing? I have one amp that blew me away with the kinda power it could put out, but I wouldn't run it at it's full potential without forced air cooling. Also, did anyone else notice the typo for the half ohm model?
bro u killed it man thank u for doing this the shop I work for is a dealer direct mmats audio and Memphis I have ran mmats for yrs lol the plant is only 3 hrs away from me... how have u been bro?
Any chance of you doing a Shark SHK 2500D? I've seen the 3500 done, but not the 2500. Every time I do a search I just find forms of people asking about test results.
+indopleaser only if they pass. There is a LOT of companies that run for the hills from the SMD AD-1 Amp Dyno. You will see soon. Time to shed some more light on the next one...BET. lol
Colorado Springs!!! hey Steve can you do amp test Tuesday on a ct sounds at 900-1d. I know you did the 1400 and the numbers looked amazing but I have a soundqued hds315d2 and want to know if the 900 will be good enough for it. right now I have it on an old Rockford Fosgate punch 601s I had layin around till I get the funds for a new amp. also how much would you charge to build me a box for my hds315d2? thanks. love your videos.
Have you ever tested a RF power 1000.1bd? The old series with the Grey beauty plate. I know you've done the 500, 800 but would like to see # on the 1000
Always impressive to see an amp do more than rated. Awesome to have a way to keep the mfg's in check now...if they are 'fudging', we'll know. I had an old school MMats D200HC before, wish I would've tested it before selling...
I still have 2 of them 1 in use daily. great little amps
I always liked the old us 50hc and the 200hc very underated nasty amps

I have a pair of the d100hc. One daily used other as a backup.
I like the video layout, showing the results on the right side as it's tested. Much watcher friendly.

Mike Brown where can I get the 2000 watt model he tested?
Have you tested to see total RMS I herd they underrated, I own a m3000.1
Bakersfield, CA starting my first ever build in a Nissan Cube!!! Wish me luck!!!

COACHELLA, CA AND MEXICALI, MEXICO MEADE✌👊!!! MMATTS ALWAYS LOOK SO SMALL THAT IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE THEIR RMS WATTS👍
nice amp and also nice editing work with all the readouts on the side
+Simon Heij thanks a lot. I know it don't look THAT complicated but that shit does take a lot of time to do :D appreciate you recognizing :D
+meade916 10/10 editing man. Love it when I see a notification from your channel
That little thing did really well for its size!
You could tell by the beefy transformers and capacitors that this amp is the truth. Thanks for always coming with dope ass videos.
that's a killer amp! 2 ohm results were impressive.
Don't sleep on MMATS amps they have always been nasty when it comes to power never overheat nor shut down.
+lstephenson247 They do overheat. I had one and it died but I bought another one. Added fans and its all good. I had the 2000.1 older model. They are great.
Their subwoofer line is amazing too
Are the vintage 2000.1 with the wrinkle finish just as powerful or not ?
Derek Quinones yes!
I really like how the test results were laid out

Still running MMATS until I die!
It's either mmats or rockford for me 😀
I have a chance of getting a vintage 2000.1 that’s a wrinkle finish you think it be worth 300 there’s nothing wrong with it ?
Derek Quinones yes get it
Flo-rida here!
U should try it on .62 ohms.
They are designed to go that low. And others go lower to 1/2 ohms. Keep the good work! Thanks for the videos.
turbo12v this amp is designed to go lower even know it’s a 2000.1?

It's Called Efficient! !!!
I have one pushing 2 15” and man! Hands down best amp!!
Best amp? Critical Mass,DC Audio,or Brax Matrix beg to differ.
@@elcomandante9299 And they can keep begging....
Arlington, Texas nice video.
Love my MMATS!

Anchorage Alaska, and judging from your "gut-shot" I'd have to say that's a Class D amp... 1% and clipping were very close to same, but surge power really shined.
Most of Mmats amps are class D. They were one of the companies in the 90's that pioneered the class D amp.
excellent brand, I have 2 amplifiers from them: D3000.1 & SQ2150(with TO3)
Shout out from Big D in Texas! Love your videos!

nice little amp. I have a friend that has a small amp is a phoenix gold amp and he is running 4 kicker 15s. I couldn't believe that.
Minnesota here, I was hoping to see you at CES , I wanted to give you a demo of my car, I drove to vegas for the bassheads meet.
les résultats sont impressionnants pour les puissances affichées !
That amp is very under rated. I wonder how reliable it is? I've always heard good things about that brand. I have two of their 12's in my garage.
Wow, does what it says on the tin and then some! I like seeing the 1% numbers and @Clipping numbers so close like that. Tells me there's some actual quality happening there. :)
North Carolina !! Awesome amplifier
Fredericktown,MO.Nice amp. Love to test the new Rockford Fosgate power amps

how much do these run ? I had a mmats 1200.1 and I loved it !! so sad the day it took out
Yo Jacksonville Fl here! Side note - no 0.5 ohm run ? Figured you'd see if it can handle it like you do with a lot of others.
+JASON JACKSON this amp can't do .5 ohm thats why they made a model specifically for half ohm use. Its the matts 2000.5d
+ThaDjSteps It can do it on music, but these amps are optimized to do a particular nominal impedance.
Mine does .5 ohms in my daily driver no problem
Love it! Vanvouver, BC

Have you Dyno tested a DB a61900.1d amp I bought this amp and hoked it up at 1 ohms to two 12 Audiopipe 12in TTX subwoofers
is their a way to check power efficiency of this amp like clamp test to see how many amps/current it draws
