Does this seem like a good deal?

anyone ever ran one or had any experience with one?

I have no EXP. with them but I heard they were power hungry but idk lol

Of course it's going to be power hungry, it's a 10kw amp and you have to supply the power to output the power.  Even if we're generous and say it's 85% efficient at 1 ohm and can really and truly output 10kw it's still going to require about a thousand amps of current to make that power output, lol.

 

Price on it seems fair, other than that I have no experience with it either.  For that matter I've barely got any experience with anything large than the 2K's I own/have owned.

I dont want or need it or anything but I never pass up a good deal on something I can make money on.. I dont ever see anyone running themnor asking about them so ill probably just pass lol

[altoncustomtech 773]

It only has a single 1/0 input for the power inputs so I'm a little skeptical on it's ability to produce a true 10kw.  On the note of making some cash on a bargain I see prices on them in the $1k range so that's how I would weigh the decision if I were you.

Who would of known that a 10k amp would be power hungry

 

If im not mistaken those amp are rated at 16volts, so it my do less power at 12volts. If any amp does the rated power you want at the price your willing to spend then yes it is a good deal.

That's actually a Damn good fucking price. They are nice Amps. But yes, they are 16v rated amps. Doesn't mean you won't expect at least 6,000 watt out of it at 12v. The thing is heavy too.
