Re: difference between ti and zx?

The Zxv2 and up will accept up to 6vrms What happens if i use a line driver and it gives the amp more voltage then the amp accepts? The signal will "clip" which sounds like raspy distortion. May damage your speakers, but seldom damages the amplifier. If you give an amp way too much input ...

Re: difference between ti and zx?

I got both and the only difference i see are other newer caps and different printing on the board and outside, the plexi windows are darker on the titanium amps that i have seen.

Re: Look what i got today ZPA

Well don't forget that each channel has it's own gain adjuster. Are you saying that with both set to the same level they are not equal? It could be the phase is not set properly. Yup thats right with both set to max it shows 0,78 on left and 0,42 on the right the right pot is very loose and easy to...

Re: Look what i got today ZPA

Sounds good, how is the sound in the zpa compared to the zx600ti?. Maybe i will try and run the zpa on my components speakers they are 250watt rms in 4 ohm so i think it will sound good, my focal P25DB is 250watt rms but its dual coil is it 250wrms per coil or are they 250wrms together? The zx400ti ...

Re: Look what i got today ZPA

Not 100% sure but I'd bet 35-40 amps if it's cranked. I'm willing to bet that a 25-30 amp fuse could work. Hi thanks for answer, it is not the fuze size im worried about its more that im scared im going to use more ampere then my alternator is putting out. Im thinking of going with the zx400ti on m...

Re: Look what i got today ZPA

Not sure what this last question is... But as for the first, there are 2 sets of yellow pots that can be adjusted. One set does the phase, the other does DC offset. I've heard a couple of way to do the phase but I do t want to give you bad advise on how to do it so I'll leave that off. Once you set...

Re: Lights in a ti amp. Opinions

That looks pretty cool. I wouldn't use the amp boards ground to ground the lights. I'd run the wires out through the cooling vents on the side and connect the LEDs independently from the amp. Otherwise you are asking for noise. What about using red or orange glow for,the fan and then blue or white ...
