Cheers for the Pics mate.... few questions, Is that the T-Amp Proline 3000 running the 4 X1's? How did it cope? been 'umming and aaring' over one of these for about 3 months !!! How was the AH4000? D'ya think it could be relied on to drive 2 subs (4ohm) per side all Night ? Behminger EP2500: What was the quality like? Cheers.. |

Yo.
It's my Proline 3000 running the X1s... and to be honest... I dunno... They only days we had it all setup Ginger did all the setting up while I was out and about doing other things...
While the whole system was running they sounded fine, but I think they could have taken a bit more power, but I don't think the volume levels had been set as high as they could have been (amp gain only half way, no clip lights atall whatsover)... I think this was ginger being cautious with my gear (which I'm very grateful of!!).
I will be testing at some point with all 4 hooked up on there own, so I can find out just how much they can be pushed with this amp.
They should be getting about 750Wrms Each (proline 3000 is 1500Wrms @ 4 ohms)... and as our X1s are loaded with C18-650ELs.. this should be ok (would of course be nice to have a bit more, I have 2 prolines now so we shall see, the new one is really intended for 4 HD15s).
Gingers AH4000... (arn't they they same circuit design as the berrys? Might have better cooling or summit??).
Berry (behminger
 Very funny btw) EP2500s.. are also mine (got 2 brand new boxed for £280!)...Build quality, it's ok, had to pop the lid on one to remove the screw that holds the binding post cover on from the factory... so the fact that I had to do this doesn't really ring of high quality...
Had a good look inside, seams fairly well built and screwed together on a whole... they sound ok (to me) and they presumably put out the stated power... you pays yer money. Edited by adambomb - 13 September 2006 at 2:49pm |

ive used the audiohead for 4ohm sub duties in the pasdt, and it will run close to clipping all night long, doesnt get hot either! considering i got it on a sale price, i cannot complain about quality! absolutely fine for my needs.
The proline im sure has much to give, at the party i was keeping it down as the 4 X1's were pumping enough for the rest of the sound to stay balanced, and they had no wadding so sounded crap when pushed! im sure the proline sounds better than the audiohead overall. better build and better quality. |

Have managed to wad one of the X1s and test now... (only in the rear chamber as read on here somewhere they have more output without the wadding int he front chamber) much smoother.
STILL waiting for PAP to send me all the nuts / bolts I paid for over 2 months ago... grrr!

OH YEA... also found that for the whole party and buckland atleast one of our X1s was running with about 3 bolts hlaf holding the driver in.. not even done up tight! GRRRREAT!! (which is why one of em was sounding a bit sick!)
Thankfully it seams no harm was done... but still... whover did the back plates up while I was getting the bands.. needs a kickin! |
