Re: Phoenix Gold ZX500 with high frequency noise

my first thought would be it comes out of the crossover board...does it have a green quadpot in it?? those pots caused alot of trouble in the past...... but if you didn't have this noise before cap changing, maybe you did something else wrong..... did you only replace the rail caps ? or did you mean...

Re: Recommend me a small SQ sub for my PG system please :-)

i would put the m25 on the speakers.....soundwise you hear a difference with the M50...... the m25 just sounds better, especially in the mid and high frequencies....... that leaves you the M50 who will give around 250rms at 4ohm and 360rms at 2 ohm, brigded...... http://intl.jlaudio.com/8w7ae-3-car...

Re: ZPA 0.3 bridged on 1 TI10d 4ohm

alot of things in the zpa are important..... next to replacing the ps caps, upgrading the amp to a V2 version, and even replacing the irfz44 to a irfz48 or something else in the powersupply, having the bias set back to good values...... the zpa will only switch into the high current mode if the amp ...

if you have a zpa0.5 in the future, just use it for speakers.....no amp sounds like this one do, especially in the mid and high frequencies..... yes you can do the mod to lock this amp in the HV mode, but probably the ps fets (irfz44) will fail with the first voltage drop that comes..... those fet'...

Hey VW, Yeah the factory recommended rms is 1200 but it seems widely accepted that it takes more than that to get this sub moving. Have you used the elite 12d? I'd like to hear from guys who have some different setups with it and what their best results were achieved with wattage wise. There is a z...

Re: ZPA0.3

I recapped this ZPA and gave it a little try. First thing I noticed is that the DC offset has changed from 11/15mV to about 30/50mV. This puzzles me, because I havent touched the bias pots. I did remove and reinstall the heat sinks. Also the fans werent connected when I measured DC offset. SO maybe...

Re: Ti500.4 vs Zx450v2

As far a crossovers I think the only big differences is the ability to bi amp. By this I mean to be able to band pass the rear channels on the ti. The zx can do the x10 but is a high pass on the rears. Now of you run a high pass signal in you could low pass the rear channels and do the same thing. ...
