Phoenix Gold Phorum

Only time I had an alt die on my I attributed it to installing underdrive pullies to try and squeeze a few hp out of it.

With the help of you'lls response I placed an order for the elite5. I will upgrade the electronics as funds become available... screw the warranty

out of curiosity what do they want for them down there? If its cheaper I have middle a lot of transactions for our members out of the country and could ship you one purchased from here. Only issue would be if you needed warranty work of course but hopefully with the price of the elites that would not be an issue. Got mine last year and can't wait to hook them up but unfortunately I have to get the car back on the road first.

It is R15000 (+-1400 us dollars) using the South African distributor

honestly I am surprised its not more.... But having an amp like that down there must be instant street credibility at any car or stereo show as long as its installed as well as it deserves too be.

Taking into consideration the market recommended price is $1499 (as advertised on other US sites) and that the distributor is including shipping, customs and tax, I also felt that I got a pretty decent deal.

that is what I thought as well I figured it would be well around the $2500 range myself. That is with the customs duty paid too?! I wonder how many actually make it down there just out of curiosity.

next week I'll check with the distributor. it would be interesting to find that I'm the first

Does the Elite.5 use the same output devices as the Elite.4?

No they are different, still large duel package Sanken devices but not the same

still really good, better then 99% of the amps out there..

Agreed... !

It is the best All-in-One solutions available....

Only reason I will not be using mine... I have a Brax I just must use...

Correction to my above post....

I WILL be using an Elite.5 in my TSX....

Nice J. It's crazy how we keep changing our minds. Lol.
I'm pretty bumbed about my decision to trade my .4. Now all I want is another one.
Go figure.
What's that Janet Jackson song? You don't know what you got till it's gone. Doh:

@ end of month I'm gonna go Elite, but for u members that have them, I can't seem to decide, .4, or 5? I notice the 4 has the" dual MT200( sanken output devices) what is/are the TO3 package output devices for the 5,& sonically how would they compare? Thanx in advance( if I go .4 ill just bridge the rear channels to my subs, vs. using 5th hybrid D on the 5)

I thought they all used the sanken output. I would say go .5.

I think the to3? Are as well, but I justbwant to clarify it

Can someone pls post their Elite5 amp guts? Or did I miss pics in the thread?, aside from evosvspec pics
