Hey guys,

Just wondering if anyone has run a PG ZX500 Bridged into 2ohm.

I checked the site.. and they mention that its not recommended, but the amp can manage pretty much without hassle (just give it sufficient cooling).

So I was just curious if anyone has done this.. and if so, anyone got any power output figures?
I'd assume close to double (normally 600W x 1 into 4ohm), so maybe around 1000W into 2 ohms?

Thanx

not recommended? i was sure they are 1ohm stable per channel, making them 2ohm bridged stable. :huh:

According to the site it will work fine (extra cooling will always help) but they don't recomed bridged at 1 ohm. It is current limited to stop it from frying so I wouldn't expect any more than 600w from it.
But if your asking this because you want the ZX amp thats for sale it won't work don't even bother trying. I want that amp damnit.

I bought my PG 600.2 for that exact purpose. The 600.2 is the newer version of the amp you're asking about. In fact, it's exactly the same from what I understand.

No problems with my two 4 ohm Infinitys.

no.. its not cause i want the amp thats for sale..

I want to run a Dual 4 ohm sub off a ZX500 amp.
the ZX500 does 600W into 4 Ohms.. so curious what it would do into a 2 ohm load.

As I said before, the amp is current limited so you won't get much more than 600w at 2 ohm contiuous, however during musical peaks the amp will be able to produce more. I'm not sure how much though, my guess would be in the 800w - 900w area. And damn I should go to bed.

the amp actually does 900W rms @ 13.8 anyway... its SEVERELY underrated!

So I was hoping it would be more than this...was just after some actual evidence

I knew they were underrated but I never thought that much, thats crazy. Anyways if no one here has any answers you could try here http://www.soundbuggy.com/forum/index.php most of them are big PG fans.
