Maybe we should continue this in another thread, as this one is about that great "mid tops" amp, the MC2 E45..

I see more CVR in use globally than any others. Preference plays a factor. The differential in output is not noticeable enough between the AD 42 and, K 35/30. However, it would make sense to buy the AD 42 for it is supposed to offer more current on demand than the K 35/30.

Seems in the UK, Admark AD42, is more respected, than the CVR. Friend has few Admarks, says he will never touch CVRs.

That applies to all amplifiers. The load plays a factor. 4 ohms Bridged Mono: 2 ohms per channel Stereo Mode Enjoy your CVR 3302 Best Regards,

It’s worth asking as I can see it being overlooked but no, we followed the correct procedure.

Seen it do that, on Proper 32A power, powering just 2x PD1850 8 ohm per side !! Maybe for HPF above 55hz, it would have faired better.. |

is a shame about the e90 as it sounds great , but seeing it sat in clip on just 2 ,4 ohm drivers a channel on a 32 amp feed as well was an eye opener , many times too on 3 different systems also , using PD 1852,turbomax 1200 and turbomax red eye :( i wanted one as well

Chatting to few people here and on FB, MC2 E45 is not the amp for people, playing bass heavy material, anyway, never mind at 2x ohms. Many confirmed, even the warm sounding E90, dissappoints those, who bought it to play bass heavy material, @ 4/2 ohm stereo, with HPF < 50hz. Feedback on MC2 E100, it fails miserably, with sub heavy material, if used with sub on all channels. Call it coincedence or circumstantial, just so happens the quoted current draw on these amps, is way below what you would expect, for amplifiers that can truly reproduce 40hz bass lines, with authority, even if only at 4 ohms stereo. Will say it again, this is not the case with Powersoft K20, if supplied enough wall juice, it will draw what it needs, to get the job done. Edited by levyte357- - 07 December 2022 at 11:47am |

Please don’t think I’m being patronising, but when using it in bridge mode are you connecting the speakers via a dedicated cable that ties the correct terminals of the amplifier’s two channels together? From the MC2 E45 manual:
I've seen a few people in the past get this wrong, as the correct termination varies from amplifier to amplifier. If not, you might not actually be giving the boxes the voltage you think you are. |
