Power Acoustik amplifiers are good?

Question

Some body can tell me if the Power Acoustik amps are good?

Answer 1

I've never meet a good one yet....Sorry.

Answer 2

Another cheaper brand of amplifier. I wouldn't recommend them, but some people use them. I have never met one that hasn't gone out after a while...sorry. Like will everything, you get what you pay for.

Answer 3

they are trash

when it comes to car audio nine times out of ten you get what you pay for- and you need to look for CEA-compliant brands which means that the amps have been tested and produce or exceed the advertised RMS wattage with minimum distortion (distortion over time is the main cause of speaker damage)

with non CEA-compliant brands you are lucky to get half of the advertised RMS wattage if you are lucky and its more than likely distorted, and if you don't know the "real" wattage then its IMPOSSIBLE the PROPERLY match your subs an amp

this is what happens

If you send too much power to your sub, you risk damaging it. The cone of the speaker and the mechanical parts that make it move may break under the stress. Surprisingly, too little power can also damage your subwoofer — in fact, it's actually more common than damage caused by overpowering.

When the volume is turned up and the amp doesn't have enough power, the signal becomes distorted, or "clipped." This distorted signal can cause parts of the speaker to overheat, warp and melt. Not good!

You don't have to match speaker and amp wattages exactly. An amp with a higher output than the speaker's rating won't necessarily damage the speaker — just turn the amp down a bit if you hear distortion from the sub and don't run the speaker at extremely loud volumes for lengthy periods. Likewise, you'll be OK with a lower powered amp if you keep the volume down and don't feed a distorted signal to the sub

you will send the amp into clipping

Clipping

Clipping occurs when an amplifier is asked to deliver more current to a speaker than the amp is capable of doing. When an amplifier clips, it literally cuts off the tops and bottoms of the musical waveforms that it's trying to reproduce, thus the term. This introduces a huge amount of distortion into the output signal. Clipping can be heard as a crunching sound on musical peaks.

that causes distorted sound which will damage your subs
