Power Akustic LFA1-5500D

Simbalage21 · 29th April 2010, 01:53 PM

Ok I had a kenwood KAC-9104D amp. Spilled redbull and it got under my seat and fried it.. Anyways I was going to go kenwood till I found out they dont cover warranty on items from ebay.. Nevertheless I ran across an auction for Power Akustic LFA1-5500D (A.K.A Loud Fukin Amp)

Are these any good? how so compared to a name like kenwood? I am disabled and far from rich, but music is the only thing left keeping me young (26 and feel like i am 80)

Numbers are a bit exaggerated. 14.4Vdc * 200A = 2880Watts. Sure you could peak over this number without blowing fuses, but you couldn't sustain that power without shutting it down.

The only power acoustic amp I have used BAMF series and the supply dropped as you loaded it. You couldn't get twice the power by halving the resistance, supply wasn't strong enough. I only assume this amp would act the same.

thanx for the quick response. So you think the kenwood series are better? I put my kac-927 in temporarly and suprisingly its turning more heads then the mono did.. Weird how old stuff gives off that grab your chest feel.

well basically got a kenwood that I want to fix, but dont wanna envest 30 in chips and mosfets for something else to be wrong. So pretty much looking for affordable yet quality mono.. presenting 2 polk 12" db series so roughly 400w rms each for now, With definate plans to get higher watt subs later.. Suprisingly them polks take everything that kenwood can toss out
