Default NEXT BATCH of Amp testing...

Okay - there's another thread that got sidetracked (SORRY ).

So probably in 1-2 weeks I can free up "some time" to do some "bench testing".
Last batch was close to 2 years age - see sticky.
In the meantime there are several new amps on the market that we seem to like (well, others here LOL).

Tests will be performed with the same tools/etc (recall my deck is different though -had Pioneer 9500 not X998).
Test reviews will be the same as in the sticky as well.

feel free to add to the list below, but I think this is a good start.
Need fellow guys to help providing "their" amp.
For those that are new here and are like "What the hell... NOT going to send my xxx$ amp to a guy I don't know"... been around here for 3 years LOL and will handle your amp as if it was mine (Gannicus and Haze, personal friends, f.e. know I am ****!)

keep in mind, your amp might be "gone" for 2 weeks or so. I will do my best to get the test done ASAP when I got the amp i and return.

Amps:
- DA 800.4 & DA Micro2V2 (CVOJOE)
- B52
- ARC 600.4
- ...

Also, for selling, I can ship to the Buyer (believe CVOJOE got buyer TailWind for 800.4). saves some money and time. just PM me when the time is there and I can provide email address...

"Lets get it on"

I have the new DA Micro2v2's in stock. I will get a new DA 800.4 ordered today and will ship both of them to you mid-week.

I may order a few extra's of the 800.4's, I'm thinking after the test, there is going to be a run on these babies. The Micro2v2's are already in short supply.

Its awesome to see the involvement back. AAWAV I along with many others appreciate your time testing a multitude of amps.With both my amps a constant power design, will they be much sufficient for another test ? I'll put this out there. If you get the 600.4 much different than the 325 bridged and 155 stereo I tested, I will ship my t400x2ad out to you. I have a spare plug so I don't have to mess with my solder connections. If you get same as me on the Arc then I will do the same test on the T. The T gets hot very fast on a dummy load. Let me know.

SPEAKING of the DEVIL.... Arrgghhh. Work!
Just got the word I need to travel again to Europe.
We can keep this thread going, no problem at all, but testing is for now postponed for a bit - probably looking at mid-end December.

Sorry I jumped the gun! I hate it when this happens...

Joe I have plenty or the 800.4s, micro 4v2, and micro 2v2s in stock if you too low to send some in for testing, I also have 600.4s and hertz hcp 4ds in stock if that helps

I have a CV B54 I would send you for testing. It would be nice to know real numbers in 4 channel and bridged configurations.

Looking forward to your testing when you get back. Have a safe trip.
