The razor 2500 states 2 ohm minimum even though I've run it at 1 ohm for years before its retirement .Thanks again for testing this amplifier.
Yes the 2500 can be run at 1 ohm even though specs say 2. And it is a better amp than the 3500 for sure. Ithe rzr2500 is definitely a great little amp.
These Korean class D boards are amazing. Really good beginner amps. The 2-ohm only versions love running at one ohm and put out almost 900 w
I hear a lot of people saying the 2500 d can run at 1 ohm. Does the amp hold up very well...get very hot and will it last a year or more?
@@mattsnider5904 ya they run great at 1 ohm
That's awesome! Nice to see car stereo equipment being affordable. I have 2 gothic 12s. I have ran 3 minute bass song torture tests and they won't blow. 1000 watts a side if amp is rated correctly
@@mattsnider5904 mine definitely isn't 1ohm stable. Tried it with 2 gothic 12s because so many people here say it is and unless they running it differently than mine idk but 12.6v-14.4v it constantly throws itself into protection mode trying to do 1ohm. I've tried 3 different amps and they do the same thing unplug one sub thus making it a 2ohm load it'll run all day long without a problem. Looking into getting the 3500d version or a skar rp2k
I wonder if the gains are up too much or clipping?
Thanks for the dyno video
Appreciate the dyno run on this amp. I figured it wouldn’t do what was on the box. Although, in my truck, I’ve got one hooked up to a single Power Acoustik MOFO 12 and it BANGS. Anyway, thanks again.
Yeah even though it doesn’t do what it says it’s still a good value for what you get.
been running mine at 1ohm for over a year now on my skar ZVX 12 no issues, it gets obnoxiously loud!!! bought this thinking ill get a proper amp later when i can spend more cash on battery alternator ect.. but was blown away by this!
I have this amp on 2 kicker comp 12” and I got it at Walmart cause my sundown amp took 3 weeks. Well this little $100 amp blew my mind. It never and I mean never gets hot. The bass is insane it’s the best little amp. I sent back the sundown amp. I’m crazy I know. I have 2 $1300 set of focal 6.5 and this $100 amp pushing my bass. Lol. Unreal amp 😊
I have the razor 2500.1 running in one of my buddies SUV. I believe the Dyno on it was 635wrms at 2ohm. Think it was $90 bucks. Your pumping these videos out hardcore man. Thanks.
They are cheap reliable amps great deal for the $$
I clamped my rzr2500 today at 1.33ohm.
Makes 555 watts
Man these amps have don so well for me I install and recommend them all the time and they are my back ups if I have any blown amps during car season (in the mid west) at car shows I have the wires ready to hook up to them
They are great little amps for sure.
700-800 watt rms for 135$ is still a great deal! Kicker, fosgate, jl audio, and most big brands ask for $200+ for 500-600 watt rms.
Thanks for the video.The efficiency rating is what got me on the amp even more than the wattage. Unless the one tested is class A/B. I missed that part. But I CANNOT FIND ANYWHERE the S/N ratio for Power Acoustik amps. Nowhere, and that's too important of a number to not have!
Big fan of the razor series of amps. I have the 3500 in a 2020 Mazda cx5 with a American bass xfl, most definitely gets down
Why does the protection light coming on when i put volume up and when bass drop, just a single 4 dual 12 s sealed box i have
Good video
FYI, internals of this amp are the same as the PPI Ion and Sound stream Picasso Nano. All are Korean made but, prices have really gone up since this video was originally released. Still good little budget amps. The little 350 watt 2 channel PPI amp in this series will fit in the palm of your hand.
They have a 5 channel with built in DSP. I would like to see one of those tested.
Please test the new DSP amp series Power Acoustik RZ5-2500DSP 5 channel. Can be had for $174 shipped!!!
What dyno test are yall looking at because if you youtube the 2500 amp theres a dyno test that shows it does its actual or so rated power which is a buget gem
Tried to find ya online,I like the Dyno.
Www.HiFiVector.com
Thanks for the video! Power Acoustic needs tobe better with their literature and numbers offered on their amps.
Agreed!
Yeah for $125 your better off buying a Stinger monoblock amp. They are some clean sounding amps that make 50% more than rated power for the same price. The efficiency rating on Stinger amps are through the roof! 90% efficiency at 4 ohms! 90% Efficiency! And at 2 ohms it's 82% efficient! That amp will barely get warm. It doesn't exceed 100 degrees f. It sounds good with a high S/N ratio too. Stinger makes some of the best lower mid-priced amps on the market. It's hard to spend over $220 on Stinger Monoblocks and they start around $125.
Hifi vector I have a question. Can I use this amp for my mids and highs and tweets , in my suv tahoe 2007 for 4pcs- 6.5, 2 pcs -6x9, 2 front tweets?????????????' . Half of those in each channel.
No this is a mono subwoofer amp it will not work for mids or highs. It can only cover up to 250hz
Its only fused for 800ish watts.
Thats into a fixed resistive load.
Real world clamped rms will be lower
Could these power 4 8’s skar 1200 watts 600 rms each?
No this amp would not have enough power.
Put one on each pair or each sub. Yes
Yall keep saying the other razors are only capable of 2 ohm, but I've been running multiple of them at 1ohm for a good while now and never had one go into protect. I say the rzr2500d is 1ohm stable and have no idea why epsilon didn't give it a 1ohm rating. There's video of another guy that runs his at .5ohm.
Nothing like the old school amps from back in the early 2000's like my old A3000.1D made in 2000 it's birth sheet said 2373 RMS at 1ohm 14.4v and it could handle 0.5 all day and the guy I bought it from had 2 strapped at 0.25ohm to a BTL and he said he was able to squeeze about 3k RMS out of each of them .. they don't make things as good as they used to..
Yes those old amps were xlnt. They were way over built. These days you have to weed through to find the good stuff but it is out there as long as you have the coin. Thanks for the comment!
The 2300 is the most accurately rated of these amplifiers. The 2300 does rated rms power.
New subscriber here ...would like to see the audiopipe 2k class d ...Budget amp with lots of power...if possible. Thanks for the content
I will keep that in mind. Which model is it exactly?
Apmn-2000. I have 2 of them uninstalled.Big D did one in the past on the dyno but it looked different and had a different model number.
This amp requires a nessesary 8 guauge on the speakers and amp hookups. or it will run hot according to videos and comments found here on CZcams..Can search "why I hate my apmn 2000"watch the final vlog on that series and he there finds out why the amp was overheating.And discovers amp is worthy and operates as it should.
Seen the APMN 1500 do a 1640wrms at 1ohm uncert running on 13.9v. so I would guess that the 2k will perform similar to it. But yes be good to see actual numbers.
@@brandonbumgardner9410 yeah that video "why I hate my amp" is a good reminder that you need more then just big power wire going in the amp because you also need big speaker wire
According to the American electric whatever chart I need 4 gauge speaker wire for my subs because it's a 6ft long run and 6k RMS so that's 4gauge I see people running taramps 8k's and 12gauge wire all the time and I try to tell them that it's killing there out put but they don't want to listen
I run my 2500 at 1 ohm no problem
How can I make my amp that powerful???
I swear mine is less watts n it’s the same exact sauce n everything paid 100 bux at wallmart😂
I run the rzr1-2500d at 1 ohm
With box rise a lot of 1 ohm sub setups are not ever at 1 ohm they will be sometimes double or even triple the stock ohm rating so sometimes you can get away with it. All depends on your specific box rise.
How many watts do you think the rzr1 is running at 1 ohm?
@@HiFiVector these Korean boards are reliable and the 2-ohm version will even run a static one ohm load just fine
Yea I think the 2 ohm versions are better than the 1 ohm versions and because box rise your right. They are usually fine with a 1 ohm load.
@@HiFiVector yeah I had my American bass xmaxxx monster 15 D1 wired down to 0.5 and in a 6th order box and on average my DMM would read 2.5ohm on music and on some test tone frequencies it would get close to 4ohm! Like 3.8ohm and I'm like damn I'm not getting hardly any power to the speaker at that high of a ohm load smh that's why I want to try a taramps Smart amp but I wish they would make a smart 8k so that I can run both of my xmaxxx 15's and get the most out of them because the dang things are 4000 RMS each lol
I burned up 2 of these within a month didn’t end up returning for a third time.
Wow that sucks. They are usually pretty reliable.
@@HiFiVector I notice their not very good at dispersing their heat and that may have been my problem
@@crazywormy5869 I've had mine since that series came out and no problems. even at 1om and no heating issues. A lot of people have sketchy set-ups and don't know what their doing and just hook stuff up. Wrong wire gauge, faulty battery, not knowing ohm qualities, snatching old cords from lamps, extension cords, just to wire their system. kinks and cuts in wires etc. I've seen it all over the years and people wonder why their vehicle is now a Barbeque pit. Js
@@ericbaker9688 lmao I’ve seen that shit to not here. 4 gauge straight to battery with inline fuses. Never seen below 12 volts. Two tens running at 2 ohm no bass boost on the amp never turned all the way up. I didn’t have shit for room in my Suzuki so it wasn’t in a perfect spot which believes me to think I was getting hot but whenever I felt it it wasn’t super hot so idk upgraded to a taramp bass 3 and it’s been good for a month so far we will see how this holds up.
With a 8 gauge power and ground🚬😮💨u can’t even get over 800watts🤣🤣
Will it handlle 4 8s
Depends on what 8’s and the wattage of the subs.
@@HiFiVector ct sounds Stratos 600 a piece
Not really… it will work but the subs will be way underpowered. For 4 of those subs you should give them around 2 to 3k real power.
Still may be a good amplifier but the company should not be allowed to false advertise their products
Ok am I not seeing something at Dynamic it kicked out a 100 more watts from 750ish to 850ish I wld think that wld be an audible difference but ok I guess 750 watts =850 watts ?🤔Still a GIANT let down compared to what the lil brother to this amp can do AND they say there's no difference between Korean built and Chinese built amps lmfao The lil bro takes this guys lunch money ALL day JUST ASK BASSNSANE 👍🏽👌🏽✌🏽💯. #POWERACOUSTIKLETDOWNAGAIN 🖕🏽
Thank you. Can I send you some kleenex in appreciation?
Yes please!
Nice it's not powerful at all.
Budget bust…. :/
Junk. How much money?
About $135
