Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Stereo Class D amplifier

Congrats Slimpi.

Class Ds are awesome.
I've been running an Axiom ADA1250 my self for the last year and never once has it even got warm to the touch, that's running it all day at moderate to loud volumes as well. I'd suspect the Anthem to be much the same. Plus its compatibility with your pre output is probably a large plus as well.

Plus the best part they run silent with out those pesky fans making way to much noise, my previous power was a Pro amp with an extreme fan hum

Is there any chance this is just a function of subwoofer phase relative to mains, and that one amplifier inverted the inputs while the other did not ?

Either way it's an interesting (and significant) change. Good to hear.

Apparently the Anthem M1s, when fed by 240VAC and coupled with a pair of Model Ts, vapourized Slim's EP500v4 and EP800v4. I suppose Slim will show up here and tell you. I wonder at what level the Ts will melt. He's already pumping 2,000W into each one and the soundstage is twice the size it was when the Anthems were fed by 120VAC.

It's not that the subs have any new and sudden issues; not at all, they are still doing a wonderful job. What I meant to say is that with all of this new found power, the three woofers in each T have a huge increase in output and as such, they are really quite 'present' vs. when they were being fed by an amp with significantly less output. As such, the front two mains are really rounding out the lower range and making the two subs blend more evenly. I guess its like adding in two more subs to the room which would increase total low end output and make it far more even.

The 240 volt input to the M1's just elevated this to a whole new game. It's not even close to the 120 volt set up. It was well worth the effort to make the installation.

Whew! I thought you blew yourself up over there.

I want what you have.

Have not yet heard the mighty A 1500 amp, I'm sure the $29 Sonic Impact T Amps are not in the same league.

Nevertheless, these 15 wpc battery or AC powered wee gems sound pretty darn good!
