This 2U amp claims 4*5400W into 4ohm. has DSP. four separate output boards rather than one board. Does this look like it would do better on bass than the 1U Admark/CVR/Morin K-series clones?

That mains lead doesn't look like it would handle 20 kW + ...

the cable does look undersized but it's a powercon, not a captive lead.

think the text next to the powercon says 3000W

Looks like a bad Photoshop lead as well

Admark AD42, as reviewed by quite a few Reggae dudes internationally, is reported to output slightly less power, 4x 8 ohm drivers per side, than a Powersoft K20, but sounds, much much warmer.

That is is a high bar to reach.

I don't know why they have to make it look exactly like a D&B amp, given no D&B user would buy a clone amp and a non-D&B user wouldn't buy a D&B amp.

I do welcome the idea of using 2U and allowing for proper heatsinking, decent sized transformers etc but they could have come up with their own generic styling.

One should always value real examples of irony, on the internet, these days. LOL

After seeing the Sanway FP14K, fail to drive 1x PD1852 on 1x channel, as well as a QSC RMX 5050, I would never touch any Sanway lightweight amp, again. 

I've also seen a Sinbosen dual transformer "20K" lightweight 4x channel, thermal out, trying to drive 1x 4 ohm 18NLW9601 per channel.

Put two of those drivers per channel, of  a Void Infinite 8 MK2, and I was utterly shocked, at what I was hearing the amp do.

After these experiences, "Personally", I just don't rate any cheap lightweight amps on sub, except Admark 2x channel models.

I suspect it's made by Sinbosen or a third party, not Sanway. FP14000 is a class TD Lab Gruppen clone sold by many different companies. TD has a reputation for not being great on bass and the FP series is now 20 years old.

I should really say, "I reserve judgement" on any cheap lightweight amp, until I hear it drive 1x "8 ohm" driver on 1x channel, compared to QSC RMX 5050, or hear how a 2x channel amp, deals with 2x 4 ohm drivers per channel, compared to Void Infinite 8MK2.

I mean, the point of a "big cheap lightweight", is to replace hefty old Transformer amps, right !? 

Something must be really wrong, if a lightweight amplifier rated at 2350wpc @ 8 ohms, can't better transformer amp rated @ 1kwpc @ 8 ohms.

Sanway has already implemented a clone that, follows the same principal as Admark, and, Morin (in addition to others out in the market sold on Alibaba) with their DA43K2. 


The model you posted seems to be aimed at those that want more flexibility with DSP than just Raw Power.
