This amp is one of the early versions that I have had for a while now. It has had several small revisions since. But this should give you a good idea what it is capable of. The entire lineup should be no different. The buzzing sound you hear in this video is my power supply that is pushing all of this. I use a Sorensen DCR-16-625T 625a 10 000 watt power supply backed up by 4 XS Power SB1000 Super Bank capacitors. I will be testing the production version of this amp when they arrive this week as well as all the others in the series. If you are at SEMA next week come by the DS18 booth and check them out yourself get a free T-Shirt Thanks for watching if you did



After all these years I finally got my own amp And not just one but EIGHT A 2 year collaboration with DS18 on the down-low while we were working on this. I got to choose the board. I got to design the style of it. I got to change some of the features on the side. I got to do it however I wanted to. I have always loved an amp with a clear bottom plate so you can see all of the electronics guts . But that requires mounting the amp upside down. For this series we flipped the internals upside down and put the clear lid on the top. Then we lit it up with LEDrs. Flowing chasing flashing or a simple single color to match any build theme. 8 amps from 200x4 up to 8500x1 and everything in between. Even a big powerful 5 channel. We used Sky High Car Audio OFC internal wiring and oh ya an SMD D Amore Engineering VM-1 built in under the acrylic top. I am super happy to finally get to talk about this. They arenrt officially released yet but will be soon If you want to see them in person come to SEMA in Las Vegas this year they should have some in the booth. I am going to post more pics and videors on this soon Stay tuned Thanks for watching if you did
