Specs look impressive on these, but for amp challenging Inf8Mk2 @ 4 ohms, and 9001 @ 2 ohms, 27kg weight seems little light, for amp of this power.



Has anyone tried playing 2x 800W-1000W drivers, per channel of this beast, on bass heavy music?

Picture with lid off, would also be great.

2 x pxm 1450 or 1 x pqm 13  for 12x PD 158 loadet horns?

is there a significant difference in bass perfomance between the "conventional" and the lightweight sereis?

Was just about to start a similar thread. 

Im currently trying to decide whether to run this (pxm1450) into 4 x pd1850 loaded rhinos @ 8 ohm (two parrallel pairs in series) or run two prolines at 4 ohm bridge (2 scoops per proline). I know which my back will prefer, but what about my ears and drivers?

Would love to see some bench test results and how harsh the clipped signal is on these if theres any been done?

they are very well laid out lev, plus each section is on its own board, meaning if one was to go wrong, repairs would be cheap as its only a case of swopping out a board.
