Review on Hifonics Zeus 1X1800WATTS 1OHM ZG 1800 1D by Steve Campbell

Revainrating 5 out of 5

This amp just keeps going

I installed this amplifier on 2 8" Skar Audio subwoofers with a total output of 1400 watts and 700 watts RMS. Since this amplifier is designed for 1 ohm and my setup is 1 ohm, I have to switch it around for amplification turn it up about 1/3. I tend to buy a bigger amp than I need so I can run it longer. If your amp hasn't been tuned by a pro, just make sure you get the low-level Using inputs from the main unit line converter Set the outputs to 5 In AC This will keep the amp going and is the maximum it can get out of the input Anything higher will cause the amp to oscillate heats up too much and you're just wasting power and the amp will most likely fail switch to protect mode I also have this fan-cooled amp If you're using a fan to cool your amp nd you need to make sure the amp is raised with some nylon spacers. This ensures that the airflow is actually going around the amp and not just blowing to the side, rendering the fan useless in most cases. Art. You also need to install a relay and fuse for the fan or you will burn out the fan within a month or two. Another thing to look out for is the 4AWG power and ground set screws. They broke when tightened, so you'll need to buy stronger ones from your local hardware store.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • A few little things
