You would contact me. lol oh Im just playin Greg, this is Josh from BNM Audio.....before i buy any new amps I want to get this US200 and US400 repaired....but I just bought a house so my budget is tighter than my belt right now,I couldnt even afford to treat myselt to te Exterminator line if I wanted to.

damn when is it my turn to get a smokin deal on some US AMPS,lol.....i have been a US AMPS fan since the early 90's and have owned a few different models. I currently own a US200 and a US400, both in purple, I have owned a purple B100 and most recently a Merlin MD2 and MD42...but I would like something new.

Using external fans to flow air around amps
Highroller replied to shizzzon's topic in SPL & SQ / Fabrication
I have used PC fans in vehicles with no problems. -
bump,anyone??

OK,Ive got an SE 15 with a bad coil.I used to run a shop with my brother and we were authorized US/RE dealers.A kid brought this sub back in and we replaced it,well this was about 2 years ago and we never sent it back in(the shop cosed down).My question is can any of you guys repair this or can I get something to repair it myself.If so please let m know,and how much it would cost.Maybe if I get it fixed I could sell it and put that towards some Icon 10d4's.

I had no idea! Anyways it sounds sooooo sweet right now,I think itll work until I find something new. I cant do band-pass on the amp(man what I would give to get my Audio Art 240.6 fixed) and dont want to run the low lows to the Bostons,or high pass really low and get the highs.Im really happy with it for now.They sound just as good if not beter than they did with the MB Quarts. Do you really not have faith in the pre-Maxxsonics MB Quart systems.Anyhow I do appreciate your concern.

Just wanted to add,future plans include getting a spare set of door panels to glass on(this is my daily driver,and its my wifes car)once I get some nice comps for up front.Also a second battery for the other side of the trunk in an enclosure with a plexi front,and a new box for 2 10's with a front plate to completely finish the trunk and make it look real clean. In case anybody is wondering,the wiring is all SoundQuest,exact same thing as Stinger,I worked in a shop that sold Stinger products and theyre identical.Why did I ever spend so much for the 1/0 Stinger kit in my Lincoln.

You really can't mix and match crossovers and drivers. Bi-amping helps, but is still a terrible bandaid. Since you have the amplifier channels just run active! I just think the amps built in setup wouldnt be as nice as the MB Quarts(I really like these peices).I plan to run some RE comps but I would really love to hear them first.For the low end I plan to run 2 RE SR10d4's or a single RE SE/SX 12,Ive only got 600@1ohm to play with.Also Im still running the HPF for all channels on the amp,but Ive x-ed the tweets over higher and the bostons at around 250=300(the thing is labeled 50-500)I kinda have the mids on a band-pass.On thing I can say is I REALLY miss my MB Quart comps.I built an Escort up with glassed pods in the doors for the mids,man they did sound sweet. http://www.carstereo.com/installs/photo_ga...p;galleryid=695 You guys might enjoy the link.I went through quite a bit with that car and never even finished it.Believe ot or not,Id say that Dual/Jensen setup hit in the mid 40's,and Im usually within 2 db of my estimates,usually.

it kinda ripped during removal,im gonna cover the holes with some more mat.thanks for the advice though

Guys I know i was wrong,but I needed subs so bad and Im so broke I traded my near mint (8.5/10) Gen Viii HiFonics Atlas for those Massive 10"s. My a-hole is still hurtin.
-
OK guys,theres finally gonna be a show in my area so I decided I would try to throw something together real quick,as the show is on the 28th and I just got started.Heres what I had lying around:my HU is an older model Eclipse 54400,next in line is an AudioControl EQL feeding only the highs amp,an Orion HP4800,which runs bi-amped to a set of older MB Quart Reference x-overs.For mids I had a set of Boston Rally 6.5"s(I know theyre nothing like the Pros),for tweets the only thing I could find is a set of stock VW tweets I pulled out at the shop,not really as bad as I had expected though.For my low end I have the rear channels ran directly to an Orion HCCA D1200(again,NOTHING like the originals,but enough for now),thats feeding 2 Massive CW 10"s (not the junk ones with the lighted cones,the older ones)in a temporary chit bocx.Keep in mind guys I just got laid off so Im on a real tight budget,seriously,I cant even throw down on a cheap set of tweets right now.Ok now for the pics.I didnt think about pics while building the amp rack or the eq box,bot heres what I got. Thanks for lookin guys and plaese leave comments positive or negative.

my bad,I thought if there was no input signal there would be no output signal.and rather than unhookin the remote wire,why not pull the fuse under the hood,in some installls the remot wire isnt that accessible.this wasnt a post to point out what I did wrong,i was a post about getting my amp repaired,I know I did a stupid.
-
I havent visited this site for some time and sorry to dig this post up,but I have a USA-400 that needs repaired,when I called I was told they are no longer rerpairing amps that old.I remember when US would replace the whole board fot the mentioned flat rate.I bought this amp for $350 and when recieved it didnt work,if I could have this amp repaired nothig would make me happier.Greg this may make you unhappy but my USA-200 needs repaired again also,i removed my sub for a short time and somehow the sub output on the deck got turned back on and the speaker wires touched.Please let me know if my amps can be repaired.

Does anybody know where I could find a non-working US AMP :VL-400,USA-400,100HC-or does anybody know if the new amps use the same boards or boards that will fit in the old chassis? I have a USA-400 with a hole burnt in the board,but I want to use this old purple chassis since I have a matching USA_200.Any help is greatly appreciated.

US Amps Merlin amplifiers up on the shop!!!
Highroller replied to Aaron Clinton's topic in SSA® Store
Well it was more of just an idea.I am an authorized dealer for US Amps(BNM Audio) so I use them(not that I dont love them anyway).As far as subbin goes,that Icon 12" is looking awful tempting.
