This is easily the Amp of the year! If the brand name does not scare you, Buy this before they're all gone like I did! I am pushing 2 Rockford Fosgate P3 12's in a ported box and you can't breathe in the car at less than half gain😲running at 1ohm and geez she rock's!
Just bought the amp yesterday while I’m waiting for my 1200w skar amp and it’s definitely worth the money I have it running a 15” skar sdr 1200w max I believe at the moment and it has no problem moving it at all
Not a bad deal. When I got back into car audio 3 or 4 years ago, I would have been all over this. You could do some pretty wild budget builds with these
Excellent equipment to buy for someone interested in car audio,especially those that want to turn things after you install it followed by dont touch or turn these settings. Glad to see it put those numbers out but such a small power input. Excellent review as always ty sir for sharing Hope you're having a wonderful Sunday 🤞
I have the older version of this amp at least 6 years old on two Polk mm 10s and it gets down. My starting ohm load is like 1.33 and it doesn’t bother the amp at all. My only problem with the amp was the 25 amp fuses were not enough and would blow 1 of hem all the time so I switched them to 30 maybe 40 amp fuses and never had an issue since then and I push it hard for hours on end. They are small little heavy bricks.
Wow now it's documented 1ohm stable (They always ran at 1ohm you just have to be careful).*The New 2500 you have has 50a fuses and the older one has 30a. The Razor is worth every Penny.Thanks for the upload.
I’ve had this amp for a couple years now. I love it! Only downside is. The cable that connects to the control knob broke and trying to find a replacement cable for it.
They change this amp to be one ohm stable because the gothic subs that's meant to be used with this amp are dual 4 so if you use two subs you're going to have a 1 ohm load so you need to have a 1 ohm stable amp
Had one of these for many years now, it is currently running off an old PC power supply (f'n lol) and pushing a single 12" sub for the audio of this PC. It may not be the best, but after years of abuse and vibration, I can tell you they are tough little units.
I've got the slightly older 2-ohm version 2500. The only thing that bugs me is the bass knob sensitivity. All the adjustment is from 9 o'clock to 11 o'clock. I swapped it out for an audio taper 2K and added a 20 ohm resistor so it doesn't completely turn off. That works pretty good, not perfect, but way better than the stock 20K.
Another issue I came across is that it can't really handle more than 6 volts RMS even on the high level input. My sub impedance only drops down to about 3.7 which is well within range. If I turn the volume up the louder bass notes would cut out. I noticed the protect light would come on for second then go out. Adjusting the gain had no effect so I knew it had to be the input. I checked the signal on an oscope to make sure it wasn't getting a clipped. It was fine. My high level output does 8.0 volts clean. It just doesn't like input voltages above 6. I swapped it over from high-level to a 2 volt low level RCA input and it's doing fine.
Before watching this video I want to say I had a belva 3k that did well the entire time I owned it, but I like Rockford and Memphis amps. Always been against wal mart audio stuff as I've been told its all junk. I actually bought this amp new and currently using it on a single kicker comp 12. Im interested to see what it does on the dyno
2500 is made just for walmart its not even on PA website. its a budget banger though. i had the older 2ohm version of the 2500 and ran at 1ohm just fine.
@stereomojo No lie it slam's! Have it paired with the Kicker CompRT 12" down firing sub with passive radiator in a G37 and you would swear that I have two 12's 🤣 was thinking about taking it down to 1ohm but I would probably blow the sub lol
Back when I first started getting into car audio again I got a skar rp2000 and had to warranty it 3 times cuz they had a permanent protect issue back then. While I waited I got one of these from Walmart to use till I got my other one back. They were 2 ohm stable but I wired to 1 ohm and must have had enough rise cuz it would run non stop no prob. It would get a bit hot, but did the trick. I was pretty impressed! Still returned it tho 😂
How did they warranty it? Did they do repairs on the same amp each time and never fixed the issue? Or did they swap it out and that model amp just had a design flaw?
Bought one of these to power 2 12” Wally World gothics (bad ground blew my eclipse’s) It’s can’t be beat for the money.. my neighbor is a bass head, he couldn’t believe how good $300 set up from Walmart sounded..
I have one of each, a 1ohm and a 2ohm. The difference is the two fuses on the one side of it. I think the 1ohm has duel 40amp fuses and the 2ohm has duel 25amp fuses. I run both at 1ohm and the 2 ohm stable amp get a lot hotter then the 1ohm version. I got 4 DVC 4ohm 12” sub running 2 on the 1ohm version and 2 subs on the 2ohm version and the 2 ohm amp get a lot hotter. I’m currently looking for another 1ohm version of the rzr2500 watt amp

Ive recently got another 1ohm stable rzr2500D1 amp. And the 1ohm versions have 2-50amp fuses and the 2ohm version have 2-25amp fuses. I set up my system to run one of the rzr2500D1 1ohm amps per 2 of my 12inch DVC 4000watt peak subs. I got two of the 1ohm versions and 4 of the 12inch dvc 4000watt peak subs.

@@stereomojo I’d like to see more more of 6 channel amps. I may be different. I love to find ways to put lots of speakers in many places in to a vehicle. I’m also more SQ than SPL.
@@stereomojo there may be things I don’t understand. I was under the impression that resistors are added to the channels not being connected to the dyno. Giving a more realistic work on all channels.
You can wire this amp to 0.5 and get some really good power out of it and it's a Korean bored so It can handle the half ohm load will run warmer if wired to .5 in a daily set up
Quite a few good D class amplifiers are getting extremely efficient nowadays. The 10x fuse rating is getting to be a low baller estimate at dynamic levels. But there is skepticism about how accurate the DD1 is. Not questioning your results or integrity.See Parker the bass head latest video. AMM1 almost doubled the numbers at clipping, going by the other metering product. I am keeping my mind open about this.
As these eventually make their way to the used market, other than the 50 amp fuses how can someone tell the difference between the 1 ohm model and the older 30 amp model?
@@stereomojo chances are it’s deff a half bridge if it’s Korean made but they have made FB Amps but it’s rare and I think it’s been quite some time since they did
Aw man. I would love help/advice with the settings on this amp with the kicker 10 from walmart. I dont know what i should set each of those diles on. My head unit has ohm options and subwoofer level settings also that im not sure where they should be.
I’ve been running my pa amp for about 2 months now with my skar svr 12 wired to one ohm , hits real hard with the gain about halfway. Drove for about an hour and the amp barely gets warm. For the low price I definitely recommend it
I’ve had mine bout a year and a half maybe two. Hasn’t been a problem yet. Shoot I had an old kicker 12in just wanted to see how it would handle on it. Blew within a week lol, swapped back to the pa 12in and been fine ever since
I have a single 10 inch kicker competition S subwoofer 600w. I have the sub sitting in an 1ft box and it knocks hard with this amp but i believe i can get a little bit more from the sub with this setup. Im running a sealed box. Whats a good setting?
All i see immediately is its 1 ohm stable,i use the previous one at 2 ohm on 2 r2d2 10in rockfords and its pretty decent for a total of 200 bucks worth of bass
I just wish you would run this amplifier to a lower ohm on your dyno test ? Several people has this amplifier right here and run it to a half a ohm !... I would like to know what can of power it puts out total ! ...
I was thinking that the 5000w SoundXtreme amp was going to be small .... It takes up one side of a loveseat! It's gotta be 2.5 feet long.... The mail lady tried handing it to me out the window.... haha nah wasn't happening
Shoulda did lower ohm load testing it really has some power lower ohm .8 .067 .5 it's Korean built and makes quite a bit more power .5 u get around 1600 watts
People I had a Power acoustics 90x90wt years ago pushing 2 blaupunt 6x9s and people would ask me all the time about my box,,had to open trunk and show them there wasn't one,it lasted yrs before it blew😊
It’s the same amp. I seen some other channels that’s tested it before when it said 2ohm and they ran it at 1ohm on the dyno and it ran the test fine people said it was 1ohm stable they just weren’t selling it as so. I think it’s the same amp.
I bought this amp to see how it does to upgrade from a belva bb200abv2. Ill tell u what this amp does not compare.. Cons of the rzr12500d The mounting brackets are awful to get to. the controls are hard to see due to the end caps . Signal to noise is very low. Draws alot of power causing my dash lights to dim . My belva amp doesn't dim the dash lights and is way louder . This thing going back to wally world.
If those 2 thin aluminum based fuses can handle 100 amps of current being only about 16awg each then, 8awg copper is more than a sufficient input lead wire for this amp to perform at its rated potential.
The way i see it, youre showing us if the amp is legit. If it does what the box advertises, then more people will go to walmart and buy it. Youre giving the amp publicicity. No problem if you return it.
Pre-2000's Power Acoustik Made their power. Same company that bought PPI bought Power Acoustik, Now only specific models of PPI makes rated Power and a tad more, the Black Ice amps are fair, and decent Power for the price.
@djkeys415s they really don't need to what? Make stated power? Sure they do CEA 2006 is a compliance act, if the box has that Label it must pass advertised numbers or what is stated in the manual. Manufacturers need to start being held accountable just as everyone else. If that label isn't on the box then it's just False advertisement.
@@joshholden8561 just recently, but idk exactly when it changed. I’m told that the newest version has higher fusing, but it can be a little difficult to know if it’s the new model or old model
@@stereomojo wow this model has 2 50 amp fuses that's some good power these are Korean made half bridge designs that can run .5 ohm no problem if u got stout electrical the last one did like 1500 dynamic this newer model must do more dynamic power u should run lower ohm load tests on this newer version amp it can handle .5 no problem.
@@stereomojo the only thing they changed was the name,fuses it comes with and the ability to be stable at 1 ohm. But like I said mine start at 1.33 or something like that below 2 and it works fine but with the 25 amp fuses I blew two of them both the same one in the amp in like 5 minutes for each one. I put two bigger ones in I had and it was fine and made me happier about the purchase knowing the old rule of fusing and power. I bought the amp on an emergency when the one I was using took a crap during a road-trip. Mine was really old and a friend gave it to me so this amp was an upgrade but the little Walmart I stopped at had only couple options and I literally chose this amp over the others because of price to weight of box ratio. At the time there was no info at all on the actual output and I knew it wasn’t 2500 but it was heavy. Let me tell you what when I opened the box and saw that little thing I was pissed like man I got screwed but I tried it anyways and it was hot out in the parking lot in Texas summer in a 68 Camaro with no a/c so I just wanted to get going so I put it in and glad I did.
Glad it makes "rated power", but naming it 1.2500 and saying on the box its 2500w is still misleading and shady. It shows their "quality" and target consumer. Pro tip: never buy a product that list "Max Power" on its packaging.

@@stereomojo so there the sdr1x12d2
@@stormtrooperjetta9585 no, mine are the d4
Dont think they changed the amp just the box
the old 2500 only did 630 rms
@@charlieknoll1269 not @1ohm you mean the2300
It’s the same amp. I seen some other channels that’s tested it before when it said 2ohm and they ran it at 1ohm on the dyno and it ran the test fine people said it was 1ohm stable they just weren’t selling it as so. I think it’s the same amp.
Newer version has bigger fuses
Yea the other version was 2 ohm stable but ppl ran that at 1 ohm anyways
I wonder if they made any changes?
Do you think I could run this amp on the 1200 watt Skar 10D2 ? I’m only running 1 sub
@@Arkansas223 which Skar is it, and are you wanting to run 1 sub or 2 subs?
@@stereomojo just 1 sub
The difference is the old RZR 2500 was only 2 ohm stable what was Korean board and could be wired down to half ohm
Anyone think this would be too much for p1s
What’s the rms rating on those? Also, how many ohms are they?
I bought this amp to see how it does to upgrade from a belva bb200abv2. Ill tell u what this amp does not compare..
Cons of the rzr12500d
The mounting brackets are awful to get to. the controls are hard to see due to the end caps . Signal to noise is very low. Draws alot of power causing my dash lights to dim . My belva amp doesn't dim the dash lights and is way louder . This thing going back to wally world.
I only ran the 2500.@1ohm not the 2300
Got to use your EARS AND BRAIN..and you will be ok!!!!
If those 2 thin aluminum based fuses can handle 100 amps of current being only about 16awg each then, 8awg copper is more than a sufficient input lead wire for this amp to perform at its rated potential.
Yeah, I’m sure you’re right. Especially if the length of wire isn’t ridiculously long.
The way i see it, youre showing us if the amp is legit. If it does what the box advertises, then more people will go to walmart and buy it.
Youre giving the amp publicicity. No problem if you return it.
I’m sure you’re right about that. Free advertising for them. I’ve got it on MP, but if it would’ve blown, I would’ve taken it back.
I want to buy that amp how much you want for it
@@StephenNealII-oz8zy I’ve already sold it, sorry
Is there a link that i can click on for this amp can someone put it in reply for me
No power Acoustic amp has ever made rated power
That’s a shame
This one did. 1,000 watts while only rated at 900.
Pre-2000's Power Acoustik Made their power.
Same company that bought PPI bought Power Acoustik, Now only specific models of PPI makes rated Power and a tad more, the Black Ice amps are fair, and decent Power for the price.
They realy dont need to
@djkeys415s they really don't need to what? Make stated power? Sure they do CEA 2006 is a compliance act, if the box has that Label it must pass advertised numbers or what is stated in the manual.
Manufacturers need to start being held accountable just as everyone else. If that label isn't on the box then it's just False advertisement.
How much would you sale it for?
@@thumpin_obs8843 I’ve already sold it
Not bad for a amp that doesn’t cost much
@@flsabvb7578 I agree. Especially this newest version
it's half bridge Korean not full bridge. I was eating for someone to do this amp. :)
Wow, I didn’t expect it to be a half bridge! Thanks Johnny! Where you been lately?
This is a 2 ohm stable amp when did it change to being 1 ohm ?
@@joshholden8561 just recently, but idk exactly when it changed. I’m told that the newest version has higher fusing, but it can be a little difficult to know if it’s the new model or old model
@@stereomojo wow this model has 2 50 amp fuses that's some good power these are Korean made half bridge designs that can run .5 ohm no problem if u got stout electrical the last one did like 1500 dynamic this newer model must do more dynamic power u should run lower ohm load tests on this newer version amp it can handle .5 no problem.
Hii
Anychance you wanna give this as an gift cause i would love this amp
@@chantalainsley6442 I wish I could, but I can’t afford to do that
They been 1 ohm stable !!!!
none of these were 1 ohm except the 3500.1d
Same as the 2300 inside.
Yeah, that’s what I was wondering
@@stereomojo the only thing they changed was the name,fuses it comes with and the ability to be stable at 1 ohm. But like I said mine start at 1.33 or something like that below 2 and it works fine but with the 25 amp fuses I blew two of them both the same one in the amp in like 5 minutes for each one. I put two bigger ones in I had and it was fine and made me happier about the purchase knowing the old rule of fusing and power. I bought the amp on an emergency when the one I was using took a crap during a road-trip. Mine was really old and a friend gave it to me so this amp was an upgrade but the little Walmart I stopped at had only couple options and I literally chose this amp over the others because of price to weight of box ratio. At the time there was no info at all on the actual output and I knew it wasn’t 2500 but it was heavy. Let me tell you what when I opened the box and saw that little thing I was pissed like man I got screwed but I tried it anyways and it was hot out in the parking lot in Texas summer in a 68 Camaro with no a/c so I just wanted to get going so I put it in and glad I did.
@@Thumper68 lol! I know what you mean about the size of it. I was surprised when I opened the box. They’re smaller than they look in videos.
Where can I get this amp at
@@BIG_DADDY_4_LYFE wal mart
I can't find that one is there a link for this one I can click on
If so il buy one i dont want to wast my money
This is a Korean half bridge design
2300 did bout 700
Yeah, I believe that’s about what it does
The RZR 2500 is about 30% more powerful than a 2300
This is a Korean half bridge not full bridge
Play 2500 is about 30% more powerful than a 2300
Glad it makes "rated power", but naming it 1.2500 and saying on the box its 2500w is still misleading and shady. It shows their "quality" and target consumer.
Pro tip: never buy a product that list "Max Power" on its packaging.
Agreed! Thanks Mark!
Cant you just use a good amp clamp to measure this stuff 😂
@6:48 that amp looks exactly like a vhs tape (vcr) that's crazy
