    • @Facekicker
      @Facekicker  Před rokem +4

      Bass version has some changes that make it a bit more reliable and consistent at low impedance, as well as using the Bass input section/crossovers. Dynamic testing seems to be impacted most by the design of the power supply section which would explain the difference. I would note however, that when an amp has a significantly higher dynamic score than cert/uncert testing, it would be rare to actually see those numbers real world. Cert/Uncert paint most of the picture.

    Great stuff bro. Appreciate these vids. Running two D2 RE Audio Triple X 15s (Model right after the Xbl^2). Using DSP for processing. Wondering what in your opinion would be the best option between a Smart 3 per sub, a Smart 3 Bass per sub or a Smart 5 Bass for both subs? From what I understand, the regular Smart 3 would give more power over the Bass version and two Smart 3s will have more power than the Smart 5 Bass. Guessing the Smart 5 Bass would be the better bet between the regular & bass because it can do 0.5 & rise from there up to between 1 & 2 where I would get good power & efficiency. Any advice on these amps would be great as I will be trying them for the first time. Thanks!

      @@Facekicker i guess this is my confusion; if you have a 2 ohm load, then the amp would need to put out 100 volts to the subs to make 5000 watts of power. But if the amp puts that same 100 volts into a .5 ohm load, you would be getting 20,000 watts, obviously that's completely unreasonable. A .5 ohm load only needs 50 volts to get 5000 watts. So if I set the gain and it doesn't reach clipping until ~100 volts then how is it safe to run a .5 ohm load with that gain setting? Does the amp detect the lower ohm load and reduce the output accordingly?

      Generally speaking, the Bass model is better for the crossovers.. If running a DSP or HU with adjustable xover settings, there are cases the regular Smart5k will make a tad more power.

    I have seen .5 rise to 1ohm or a little more but not to 2 ohms. But the power your talking about won't happen on a taramps because they can't handle that huge current (Full-Time). I know your dynamic results where gonna be good because of the type of music they listen to in Brazil is real thumpish meaning this is why taramps (don't like) playing lows, I didn't say they won't I said they don't like to. I'm pretty sure the bass line sounds no different from the normal smart 5 or HD line they are full of crape. I'm just saying all this because the hate on these amps is real but the type of people that buy stand up for them in the wrong way. They will get all but hurt if you say taramps lake in controll or taramps don't hit lows good. When it comes down to it, it's a cheap awesome power.
