Re: is 4 guage enough for a zx600ti and a zx475ti?

I think I may upgrade it to o gauge. hadnt decided. only because I am not sure how long I will run these ...maybe long time..ha ha ...maybe a week. The only thing I hate about older amps of any brand is they are not near as efficient as the newer stuff out now. its hard to beat the efficiency of new...

Re: what caps for my zx475ti 600ti and 500.4 ti

the zx475ti is not in the car. just the other 2 . they looked fine. I am still going to see what I can find out. I may or may not end up keeping the titaniums depending on the outcome of the jl1000/1 sale.

Re: what caps for my zx475ti 600ti and 500.4 ti

I actually got my JL audio 1000/1 back from shop today and one of the tops on it was bubble and half off. peeled it off to reveal nice flat cap.

I will check these again tonight.

I put the cover on before I knew I had any responses .. I will open it back up later and check under the caps.

so how hard is it to get the board out the case so I can see underneath?

what caps for my zx475ti 600ti and 500.4 ti

I looked in my zx475Ti and it appears the tops of the 4 caps that are close to center of the board are swollen so I need to replace them. I am running the zx600ti and the 500.4Ti so that should allow me to try to change these caps myself. does the bottom of the amp case come off so that I dont have ...

Re: voltage output on zx600Ti and zx475Ti ?

I hope the zx475ti is more than that. that is less than the JL 300/4 I replaced with this 475ti

actually my memory is off . the zx475ti puts out more volts.

fantastic. yes I mean the titanium amps ...all of these are the titanium. it would be great to not have to replace them right away. I will have enough to do one at a time. I will only need 2 of them. sweet news.

Re: real output of the zx500?

JL 300/4 bridged is 34.6 volts @ 4ohms so that would be close. the JL should do that a little easier due to power supply or am I thinking of it wrong?

this is tough. I will have to find a zx450 again..I have owned 2 or 3 of them already.

pillow I am going to email you again.
