Is Directed Audio any good?
I have a blown Audiobahn A2200HCT and was thinking about just replacing it
since it has given me so much trouble. Is Directed a good choice? Will the DIRECTED AUDIO 1500D run at 1ohm? |

The 1500d is designed to drive 1 ohm... no problem there.

I had an Audiobahn A2200HC that worked for approximately half an hour to
an hour before giving up the ghost. I've run Directed amps ever since and would have no qualms about buying more. Hell, the sub amps worked so well I bought a 6-channel and a 2-channel and 2 more of the newer monoblocks as well as an active crossover and several speakers. They are solid amps and heck even put up with fire and chemical extinguishers well. You won't have any problems going with the 1500D, and it should power your subs just fine if you wire them correctly. Brandonb - Heh, that was funny asking JD if Directed amps were junk.

Suffice it to say that sometimes we do stupid things and accidents occur.

Because he works for Directed. Anyway, I'm an owner of a lot of Directed-manufactured equipment, and whenever I've had a problem they've been very helpful. At this point, there are very few audio companies aside from Directed that I'd even bother with. |

Ok well Directed it is then. Im sorry I ever bought any of this Audiobahn
crap. Are these "1ohm stabe" amps actually meant to be run at 1 ohm or does that just beath them untill they die? "MZ" wrote in message ... Why is it funny asking JD if directed is junk?

Thats good to hear. Do you think that driving 3 12" 1000watt Audiobahn Alum
12s will make the amp run too hot? I like to listen to them loud. My A2200HCT would always overheat and go into protection. "Brandonb" wrote in message ...

12s will make the amp run too hot? A simple question: Some of the ALUM series are dual 6 ohm. Which do you have, and are you completely certain you aren't showing your amp something LESS than a 1 ohm load? .. www.MAINSTREET-AUDIO.com ~ ~ ~ Where SERVICE never goes out of style ~ ~ ~ V I S I T O U R F O R U M http://63.74.14.174/forum/phpBB2/index.php |
