Im not 100% sure but I think its makes about the same @ 2ohm mono?

To be fair, Stephen does call a lot of amps "junk." The friend who introduced me to him told me that he sent him a lot of amps in the past (Diamond audio D7, Helix, DLS, Sony ES to name a few) that Stephen called junk or weak. So my friend was quite surprised to hear that Zed somewhat appr...

Stephen's response on the orginal MS2250: I have a lot of experience with this amplifier and it basically has the same flaws as the smaller "75w/ch" unit. It does 300w/ch at 4 ohms at 14v battery but at 12v battery the power drops to 205w/ch The amplifier does not do well into 2 ohms and o...

Zed audio on my MS275

I sent him my MS475 for some repairs. I went ahead and asked him what he thought about the amp. quote from the legend him self - Stephen Mantz... The amplifiers do not put out a lot of power at 12v battery, only 65w at 4 ohm... The rail voltage at 12v battery is +/-31v with no load. Driving both cha...

In that case 2 M100's
If Azim is going the passive route, this would be my choice as well.

Active - I would go with the 44/100 combo. Although (2) M100 and M50 would be nice!

Are you going 3-way active? or 4" + tweeters passive and active for the midbass? My suggestions: Active: MS275 - tweets MS275 - mids MS2125 - MBs MS2250 - for both subs. The Zapco xover will be useful since the pioneer only has filtering for 2 way + sub. However, in this case you're not really ...

Welcome to the site. Be sure that the input caps are replaced, if not you must have them replaced. Rail caps are optional, but recommended. If new caps are replaced and the amp is used properly, the amps should last as long as you have them. Also be sure that there are no loose copper strands inside...
