The amplifier is split into two sections for true stereo. This method is used to make sure there's zero noise and blend between the channels, just like your high end home audio stereo amplifier. If I cracked open my Yamaha it's literally split in two, with bare pcb board connecting the two sides. The board in the center helps filter out noise and deliver clean signal to the right and left amplifiers.
As always well done! Props for being an adult btw. Watching you vids is so not annoying, you have a solid delivery and i love how you freeze when we wanna read, and dont speed through the images!
I love the intro. True some people have no idea how or why we are so fascinated with car audio, power, voltage, amperage, thick wires, caps, coils and rails. To push an amp. Do tests nobody does. You are the man!
It’s awesome to see how awesome the major companies were back in the earlier days, they truly cared about performance and quality and then somewhere along the line things became about mass production and greed. Thankfully, it gave birth to a lot of the heavy hitters we have today.
Awesome, glad I was able to get the point across. It can be difficult to grasp when we are mainly comparing watts per dollar these days. Thanks for watching and commenting 🤙
Big “D” you are nuts man!!! Love the video brother. Sony was a great car audio company back in the day,early to mid 90s but then they hit a rough patch.
It made more 4ohms because the Dyno takes it to 1% thd when it's rated at 0.04% thd. The other ratings in the manual say 0.1% thd. I wonder how well it would do at the rated thd level?
@@wal the new Mobile ES speakers are more accessible and sound even better than ever. Imagine pairing the new Mobile ES speakers with an oldschool mobile ES amplifier
We have Big D to show us what our amps will do.. we got 5 star to show us how to properly install everything .. we have CAF to show us how to make it look amazing. And we have Soundman to show us how to make fun of all of them! 😂 ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!!
old school huh... im 43 and 1st got into car audio in 93 while in tech school, i had FOUR 12 inch Pioneer subs in my OLDSMOBILE... two cubic feet each sub = 8 total cubic ft, all subs independant air space... oh shit son, my parents & girlfriend heard me comming from 10 houses away... that car had a rewired 150 amp alternator, 2nd battery in the trunk and 3 amps.... those were the days... SONY MOBILE ES... OH YEA...!!!
Thanks Big D your the BOSS. If you look close at the board design and layout it kind of resembles the Sound Stream M500. The design is in deed for SQ. I'm sure the channel separation is almost flawless with no cross talk between channels. I would love to see the damping control. (Factor) on this amp.
Yep, Soundstream did have separated boards, those were some sweet amps, I believe they were class A. I remember they were always hot, no matter what volume level. but one of the cleanest sounding amps back then. I have seen them melted to trunk liner.
The car audio world will never see amps with this kind of quality again. We are headed, or already at a mono amp/ subwoofer driven market that could care less about music.
What an amazing amp!! Beautiful craftsmanship. 👌 Guess the two separate boards makes it a dual mono. I can only imagine how beautiful those builds with this amp must sound. Someday I'm gonna have to listen to JDR's setup if and when he gets the Sony's hooked up. Excellent video bro!! 👌
Thanks brother. Amazing quality video from cell phones these days! I use the iPhone X for most of my vids. Quality is comparable with $2500 video cameras in my tests.
One of my favorite amps for sq of all time. Awesome vid. Local car audio shop owner had one running is valcano subs and one running his crystal mids sounded amazing and he wasn't afraid to demo it!
Yes it was. People cared about sound quality unlike today. They cared about beautiful installations that took a lot of thought and creativity. Today all they care about is getting some 2x4s and a 4x8 sheet of OSB with 60 alternators and 60 class d amps and duct taping the windows together for sound pressure.🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
This amp is likely much better than any home receiver that the average youtubers will ever own. It might be fun to use this amp power some very large 84db planar speakers.
Wow, never knew that existed either. Can you find and test some of those turn of the century amps that have the 3 or 4 pressure cooker frequency guages on them? That would be hilarious
That sony gs9 is an amazing deck. It does very little but is the best sounding car audio deck I have ever heard from a preamp out perspective. Truly sounds hi-fi
I just discovered this channel and dude l.used to do this.and was my favorite thing in the world!!!.Thanks so much for doing what you do!!! Please keep.pumping out your videos!! They're all gtreat!!!
BigDWiz Sweet! I gotta reply from the "big dummy" himself! JK! Man, I don't know how u do it, but u can get hold of some really rare, older stuff. Awesome channel, BTW.
Great video BIG D thank you, it's been along time since I seen one of those. Keep up the great work you do for the car audio community. You and #HIFIVEGA are keeping the old school and the new school car audio scene alive with all your passion and love you have for the community THANK YOU
Wow looks like Sony still keeping their ES quality even in automotive I have a old skool Sony TAN 9000 ES pre amp and amp that's 21 years old still jamming out to this day
No one seems to know that SQ amps exist or how much better they sound. My first amp was an MB Quart 100w x 4 at 4 ohms. Lasted for years, had some issues with it, but it was an OK amp. Then I replaced it with a Zapco LX 150w x 4 at 4 ohms, an amplifier costing around 8 times more. The difference was substantial and it's been perfectly reliable.
I looked into this amp in the 90s and decided to go with dual McIntosh 300 wpc@4ohm monoblocks and a single 600 watt 2 channel amp with autoformers for SQ .
This is by far my favorite channel to watch! Sorry Parker and hifi vega lol! It brings me back to my 15-21 yr old years of non stop systems and having subs slapping like they were Rick james and Ike turner on ❄️ lol! The nostalgia and also the new info has been so helpful and also just amazing content ! Big dummy and dick riculous are the best lol !
Those were the days of REAL quality! The Sony head units like the C90R were very good and had a nice warm dynamic sound, unlike the alpines and pioneers.
What a beauty! Sony makes great gear all around but they kind of suffered the whole jack of all trades, master of none syndrome...having their hands in so many pots but never being the best in any of them. Well, maybe the best Walkman's... ;) Killer vid Big D! Thank you!
I sold hundreds of Trinitron TVs. They were good...but not the best. Sony was the best at getting folks to believe they were the best even though they weren't. Much like many believe Bose is the best...when they certainly aren't.
I've had my two Sony XM-D9001GTR for years. Never really had both connected, so one is still pretty much brand new. Not the best, but they do an alright job for what they are. Had one connected to two RE Audio 15's in a ported box tuned to 30hz. Sound Quality was great, hit the lows amazingly for the lower power.
Rockford 8002 is also a crazy ass class ab amp that loves 1 ohm. They can do like 1500 watts!! Edit, almost forgot about the ultra rare psycho rockford 15002
How in the world could you use or need 3 of those crazy big Sony amps. I guess only being 2 channels? (I thought they were 4 channels anyway). That's completely insane!. Insane enough I guess to win 1st place 3 years in a row! lol Really impressive and clean install on that Trailblazer. And Scanspeak are some nice drivers/speakers if ya can afford them! Cool Video, Thanks Big D! (hopefully that Sony amp has a fan or two!)
Great vid as always with some classic stuff. Any chance you have seen or heard of anyone with the Oz Audio Delta 2400 amp? Always wanted one and have never seen them actually available. Would love to see the amp dyno for that as well Big D!!!!
Man, I remember the good ole days in Car Audio. Old school ES before the BS sellout stuff. XES line with fiber optic interconnects was da bomb! Insane.
I have owned every generation of Sony personal audio player (from the cassette walkman right up to the modern Hi-res players) and still, to this day, the mini disc is my favourite format. I wish I hadn't sold my mini disc player (sold it because shops stopped stocking mini discs) years ago, I miss it, it's size, the ease of use. I know people today probably prefer their phones but mini discs always had top of the range amplifiers in them while phones are really hit and miss.
Another mind grabbing video. I was hoping you could do a Crown XLI2500. I own one and love it with my speakers, it can get very loud but stays clear and clean sounding. I would just like to see the real deal that you provide with your high speed low drag dyno tester. YOU THA MAN!
Picked up a big red not that long ago. Needs some work, but I admittedly underappreciated Sony for years until just recently. Thanks for showing this one!
there was a good friend from back in the day had one of these in a cavalier and it sounded great. had 2 10 subs . but this amp was powering some 6.5's. and ya took up the trunk..lol please keep this up. love seeing the old school stuff. brings me to my teens/20's
Nice to see an amp that is under stated, or stated correctly, rather than all the new 'crap' with huge proclamations of power and test out to 'meh', keep that up Sony imho.
What's up bro... Been checking out your vids and seems you're full of knowledge... Anyway I'm going big and need some good advice... I run a l7 15 right now in a rsx but I'm planning on adding 3 more... What amp or amps do you recommend to push these full throttle... Looking to get into spl drag... I love the Rubicon 2500 because they're fairly priced and I know you can strap them... What's your opinion on them.
I’m not a big fan of the Rubi 2500’s. They are really cheaply made. I’d look at Orion XTR-2500Dz’s, which are far more powerful and can be strapped as well. They are much better quality and made in Korea

Travis Piper it's called dual mono each channel own power supply and capacitance
Dual mono amps can have problems with balance though, but who gives a damn with that much power. Least of your worries.
Emotiva has a cool modular amp setup where you can add or remove channels as needed.
I've seen Pa amps built like this with XLR jacks, so they must have something going on.
my alpine is the same way, you can see on the backside where it splits, great amp
As always well done! Props for being an adult btw. Watching you vids is so not annoying, you have a solid delivery and i love how you freeze when we wanna read, and dont speed through the images!
That amp is truly a work of art!
Sony at their best! Well, except the jumper board and tiny wires 🤔
Lmaooo the ending, I thought it was a soundmanca video for a second haha. Keep up the great work BigD

The Sony amplifier and JBL amplifier would go great together.
A channel I follow commenting in another channel I follow 😃😃 you guys are monters
@@wal and it won't heat up
@@wal I know. You got have a proper amp rack in the trunk for that amp
Sony makes something for every budget.
Right. Nice to see they are bringing back the SQ stuff
This channel is so bad for my wallet. Nostalgia is expensive
Very true
ROFLMAO - when you said 'this mutha in Sweden' I didnt expect to see an actual MOTHER :)
Thanks for the vid.
Thanks Big D Wiz, for all the 4K UHD uploads. Awesome stuff. I really appreciate it! Keep doing what you do! Thanks again man!
It’s awesome to see how awesome the major companies were back in the earlier days, they truly cared about performance and quality and then somewhere along the line things became about mass production and greed. Thankfully, it gave birth to a lot of the heavy hitters we have today.
I learned something new thanks to this video. I learned that there are amps specifically built for SQ; others are built for SPL. Thanks, Big D.
Awesome, glad I was able to get the point across. It can be difficult to grasp when we are mainly comparing watts per dollar these days. Thanks for watching and commenting 🤙
I've run ab ppis before and honestly I can't tell the sq difference in a class ab vs d.
They guy who designed the original Orion and I believe PPI amps is making brand new SQ amps, look up Boland Audio. Very nice stuff. American made too.
Big “D” you are nuts man!!! Love the video brother. Sony was a great car audio company back in the day,early to mid 90s but then they hit a rough patch.
That thing is way nicer than any of my HOME stuff!
I love some a/b action . the most effective way to turn sound into heat.
It made more 4ohms because the Dyno takes it to 1% thd when it's rated at 0.04% thd. The other ratings in the manual say 0.1% thd. I wonder how well it would do at the rated thd level?
Love Sony's ES line! Thanks for all the input man, keep it coming!!

10:06 LOVE THIS! Love your channel! Look forward to ALL your videos!
I love your videos dude me and all my friends been bumping Rockford and all the names sense late 80's
Glad to know you are still interested in car audio. Too many have dropped out. I love hearing the stories of people’s systems from back in the day 🤟
That's is the cleanest sounding amp ever made hands down.

Such a cool amp, I agree would be sweet to hear one in a system
I was in the business from 1987 to 2005 this is the first time I've seen one. Thought they were just unicorns. OMG is Doug editing your vids now ? 😁😁
Picture quality of ur videos is amazing man. So clear. Thanks again for all of ur hard work on all of ur videos. Ur the best man.
Thanks brother. Amazing quality video from cell phones these days! I use the iPhone X for most of my vids. Quality is comparable with $2500 video cameras in my tests.
Sure hard to believe that is from a phone. Wow man.
Love the vids man!
Thanks brother!!
02:50 Yeah, and those are 18inch subs..........I'm just kiddin, shit had me rollin 😂😂😂
Just threw in the Sony Xm-gs100 amp paired to two gs series 12" subs to replace my old JL setup. Absolutely love it.
One of my favorite amps for sq of all time. Awesome vid. Local car audio shop owner had one running is valcano subs and one running his crystal mids sounded amazing and he wasn't afraid to demo it!

They ran the game with trinitron ,
I sold hundreds of Trinitron TVs. They were good...but not the best. Sony was the best at getting folks to believe they were the best even though they weren't. Much like many believe Bose is the best...when they certainly aren't.
they got the playstation that's sonys money maker
I've had my two Sony XM-D9001GTR for years. Never really had both connected, so one is still pretty much brand new. Not the best, but they do an alright job for what they are. Had one connected to two RE Audio 15's in a ported box tuned to 30hz. Sound Quality was great, hit the lows amazingly for the lower power.
Rockford 8002 is also a crazy ass class ab amp that loves 1 ohm. They can do like 1500 watts!!
Edit, almost forgot about the ultra rare psycho rockford 15002
If it is 50% efficient, than it is putting out equal amounts of heat and sound. A bonus if you live up north

Always like Sony, I started with the explod series.
I have owned every generation of Sony personal audio player (from the cassette walkman right up to the modern Hi-res players) and still, to this day, the mini disc is my favourite format.

I used to have one of these years ago...ran 4 power acoustik fubar 12s..slammed! I regret selling that beast
Someone needs to turn an old PS2 into an Amp enclosure.
They basically gave each channel a own power supply and cap set ... it’s actually mono blocks
The swedish womans trailblazer is awesome. If she lived in Switzerland it would def have to be an all Alpine build though😅
Good one 😊
Nice to see an amp that is under stated, or stated correctly, rather than all the new 'crap' with huge proclamations of power and test out to 'meh', keep that up Sony imho.
LMAO.......the ending was EPIC
👌😬👍
I knew they did. Never got one because Orion had the OG HCCA amps out (G3 & G4's). They were smaller, cheaper, and a ton of power.
The specs of that amp are simply insane.
As was the price new!
I had an XM C6000 and never seen an amp bigger than that in person.
I remember when Sony would make a Sony stack a CD player and cassette player i used to have one would like to see a video of it
I love the top-tier electrolytics in this amp.
However, the power supply uses Chemi-con, not Nichicon Golds.
I'll take 3 of them.
Those car Audi guides were my bible!!!!$
Yes!!
What's up bro... Been checking out your vids and seems you're full of knowledge... Anyway I'm going big and need some good advice...

I had a local newsstand, but they had a back corner, where the dirty old men would huddle 👈😲. I just wanted the car and audio magazines
BigDWiz Bahahaha
Thank you for showcasing this rare beast!
Big thanks to JDR for bringing it for me to test and show off 🤙
That damn thing is bigger than my car 😃
Those guys are pretty damn impressive, Lamont...
my friend had once a 1kW amplifier at home. he had to bridge the 220/16amp fuse with a 5mm diameter nail to let it start up....
Man that thing is quality! Leave it to Sony to bust out the Nichicon caps.
Sony and pioneer have decent amps for the money. People just assume they're not good because Wal Mart sales them
