Greetings!
1st post here. I'm installing (1) Dayton Audio RSS390HO-4 15" sub in a sealed enclosure in my Fusion.
I'm trying to source an amp for <$300. Sub is rated at 800w RMS and 1600w peak and I'm more interested in sq over spl.
So far, I've got it narrowed down to 2 amps: Audioque 200.2 and Cadence ZRS 2002.
AQ Specs:
Specifications
Model AQ2x200
Dimensions 15.8" x 9"
Input Sensitivity 8V~0.2V
Low Pass Filter 50Hz ~ 5kHz
High Pass Filter 20Hz ~ 5kHz
Band Pass Filter 20Hz ~ 5kHz
Remote Gain Control Included
Clipping Display Led Yes
Signal to Noise Ratio 105dB
Damping Factor 200 <
Bass Boost @45Hz 0~18dB
External Fuse Rating 40A x 2 pcs
4 ohm power @ 14V 220Wx2
2 ohm power @ 14V 340Wx2
4 ohm mono power @ 14V 680Wx1
Power and Ground Inputs 4ga
Cadence Specs:
SPECIFICATIONS:
4 Ohm RMS Power: 2 x 250 Watts @ 13.8 Volts
2 Ohm RMS Power: 2 x 400 Watts @ 13.8 Volts
4 Ohm Mono RMS Power: 1 x 800 Watts @ 13.8 Volts
Frequency Response: 10Hz - 40KHz
Channel Seperation: >65 dB
S/N Ratio: >100 db
Damping Factor: >200 @ 100Hz
Minimum THD: <0.044%
Input Voltage: 200 mV - 8 Volts
Dimensions: 20" x 9.4" x 2.4"
The Cadence amp lists a frequency response of 10Hz-40Hz. The AQ amp doesn't list this spec. on AQ's web site, the description states that it is primarily used for comps, but can be bridged at 4ohms to use as a sub amp, which is what I am interested in doing. Do you think the AQ amp would be a good sub amp? I've read really goo things about AQ amps, but I want to make sure I can adjust the low pass filter/band pass filter to get the lower frequencies that the Dayton is capable of producing.
I hope I'm making sense. your thoughts, comments, and suggestions are appreciated (including other amp recommendations). :)
Thanks,
Dan
