Dropped ya a few bucks big d, man u ever dynoed a a jbl gto 7001? I've wanted so see what that thing really does , had it running my xfl12 and upgraded to 2200rms and it was louder but not as much as I expected, so I KNOW it was pushing WAY more than the rated 700
I used to be an MA audio dealer. This was a promotional piece. MA told me only 250 of these were ever made. It never had an msrp. When I made an initial buy-in to sell the product they offered it to me. It was around $400 cost with the buy in around $6500 for all the products.
I would be shocked if 250 were actually made. It had an MSRP in the 2002 CA&E directory. Promotional piece explains why they didn’t pump it, I guess...
@@mobileprosnevada3922 400$ cost "If you buy 6500$ worth of their other garbage". Really though if you add up the cost of two 2 channel amp boards + a cheap 30 band EQ the only expensive thing is custom tooling on the heatsink and top plate. It's a shame nobody makes these big surfboard multi-board multi-channel amps anymore though.
I had a MA Audio HC4002 back then, hooked up to 2 SPLW15's (blue SPL dust cap, not silver metal) and it thumped. Later changed to 2x Audiobahn Eternal series 12's in a pre-fab, turned the power down, and they slammed pretty good.
Had a 1500w class d monoblock from this series of amps. Looked just like this but smaller with less potentiometers. It had the two vents with cooling fans and backlit meters. Also had chrome corners you can put on in case you didn't want to flush mount it. Made the amp look huge if you put the corners on. Used to win comps with it pushing 2 MA Audio XL series 12s in a pre-fab double bandpass pro-box. People hated that I would put them to shame with a pre-fab and some "no name" woofers. Lol. Early 2000s were fun.
MA audio was in it to win it in the late 90's and early 2000's. They had all kinds of crazy over the top gear. This has to be the craziest of them all.
So many people here in NFL thought MA audio wasn’t good & I’ve seen these amps all around & in pawn shops. & I’ve always known they were killer products & your video just reassured my thoughts
Big D! Thanks for this channel. You've helped so many people in this field. I haven't been messing around with car audio in years and this channel makes me want to get back into. I have a p1000-1bd (older black+red model, not the newer black+blue ones) sitting around waiting for me to put something together and drop it into a car. If you ever need to Dyno one of those for some reason, I'd be happy to loan it. Thanks for all your efforts and keeping it transparent
Just got myself a ma audio m600xe off ebay last week and still awaiting shipping. What a coincidence you posted this video now cause I don't recall you having anything ma audio on your channel before :D
Yes!!!! Back in Bakersfield, Ca , there was a shop called car tunes, and it’s sister store called car audio pros, they were owned by two brothers, and they sold ma audio and cliff designs, back in 2004. And one of the brothers had this amp in a cut through Silverado powering a full cliff designs system, and the other brother had another Silverado blow thru with a full ma audio system with 2 huge 4000 watt subwoofer amps by ma audio. I wish I would have taken pictures back then. But the guy who had the 6 channel that you have said there were only a handful made for the guys who started the company. Not sure of the validity of his statements but it’s definitely a blast from the past for me, was the first time I ever heard anything by ma audio and he was rocking 8 sets of components and four 15”s off that beast. Super loud and clean. You are one lucky dude to have one!!! Can’t wait for the amp dyno!!
I have 2 synergy series 1100rms class x sub amps amps from this era still pounding strong. Digital displays still work and everything. I worked at an MA shop back then and didn't appreciate them until they never died...
DYNO THAT BEAST. I knew what it was as soon as I saw the picture that amp with a single MA hardcore 15 and some super sweet 2 ohm component set was a sweet setup back in the day that amp is a monster and the full blown EQ board made it all yhe more outragous. I wanna say that amp was like $2k plus when they released it.
Incredible! I had an Ma Audio 12iL subwoofer that I beat on for 18 years before it let go. It was a sad day when i had to retire that beast. Can't wait to see what this amp does.
O yea, I like it. That's my kind of setup right there. All the power you need and tunability with those 30 band EQ's. My first full setup was in my 1985 Honda CRX. Used a Sony ES XM-7557 (big red) hidden in the spare tire well. It was a tight squeeze even after making more room with a large hammer.
@@caraudiopro4841 Cool! Mine worked great for the 12+ years I had it. I should have kept it. Curious to know what it would really do on the BigD dyno. Always thought it was a bit underrated.
Just noticed the writing on your shirt in this video. I live less than 10 minutes from that beach. Love your content. I grew up in the old school car audio generation. Orion hcca,nt,Cobalt, they were all awesome to us back then.
Very interesting my brother. I don't recall ever seeing or hearing about that amp. Kind of surprising with all of its initial glory. Thanks for showing us man.
That sucker is huge, sweet gauges too ;) I remember seeing this one pawn shop off interstate 35 that was all 8:45 Pyramid sponsored, 20k sqft store , same day installs, tint, custom sub boxes and $2 taco plates! Early 90's
Hey big D this thing was advertised in a lot of European car tunning magazines i can confirm that,i believe around 2003-2004 and I used to dream about having this beast one day 😅
Now, that's what I'm talking about!!! I can't wait to see that bad boy on the dyno. I forgot all about these things, I do briefly remember hearing about them. I've always been a sucker for the amps that could run your whole system. I can't wait to see more on this and now you have me wanting one. :)
The bigger the better! I have a couple MA amps I'll be selling in the near future, but I honestly have never seen or heard of this one. I have always desired the PPI PC650 and Zapco AG 650/Reference 650 as SQ full system amps. They are somewhat rare, but this one must be like a unicorn.
@@wal its almost like the McIntosh MC4000M we installed at my old job, went inside of a Navigator. Had to make a custom enclosure in the back floor and mount 2 Xtant subs where the spare tire would be
I always liked the MA Audio aesthetic but unfortunately most of their stuff was seen as a budget gear. It typically under-performed but never by an unacceptable margin so the bang-for-the-buck proposition was there. Put really generally, and take this this a grain of salt, but I'd liken their performance to be like 80% of Kicker (when they were still relevant in the early 2000's) or Rockford Fosgate but coming in at 40% of the cost. There was a lot guys in that era putting out gear in that tier such as Audiobahn, Visonik, Cliff Designs, etc... (same parent company I believe) and some of their flagships were actually pretty unique. Up here in Canada there was a liquidation place called XS Cargo that commonly carried their stuff at blow-out prices. Sometimes, they even had their higher-tier stuff like the HardKore series. I sometimes regret not picking up a pair of their HK15 subwoofers which I recall were about $150 a piece and came in a wooden crate.
Yeah, going by the looks, I’d prepare to be disappointed with the dyno numbers ..excellent looks and acceptable power for the price... very budget friendly..🙂
Well when you said something cool was "in the box" you weren't joken. That sure is a lot of knobs to play with lol Can't wait to see the dyno. Thanks for the video.
BEAUTIFUL INSTALL, BigD. I hope you don't damage your FORD.LOL The MA Audio is awesome. I'm guessing the sub channel will put out 1908 wrms certified @ 10hm. R/Kosmo
Kenon Electronics is an electronic refurbishing company, taking everything from Mr. Coffee makers to Ginormous MA Amps and bringing them back to life. I have had a couple planet audio BB2400.1 repaired/refurbished there, it was where I was directed for warranty work. Maybe it has changed but they seemed to have a list of amps they would work on, I wanted to send an Ampere Audio 9.0 in and they wouldn't take it. If you are going to try and get some info I would start with David, that is who I addressed the amps too I had worked on. I will try and find an email address for him and will Send it privately.
Hey Big D Randy here I've spoken with you in the past I have an old Gem of an amp I thought you may be interested in testing it has some superficial damage but works wonderfully it's the Rockford Fosgate Punch 4004. 4 channel this thing sounds great I believe it's putting out way more power than what it claims it is made in the USA very rare to find a gem like that
In the mid 80's, as a high school kid, I had the Pyramid eq boosters. And then even a Kawasaki 10 band 380 watt eq/boost! What I didn't know then..... Well, it was a bit fun to see all of the old gear.
Audiobahn was and still is garbage they spent most of thier $ in chrome plating instead of making their amps good its like putting 30in rims on your tractor
this was meant to be a promo unit mainly for display for the wow factor. cost was stupid cheap to a dealer i remember when ma wanted us to pick up the line. we played with one and it wasnt a terrible amp. the rep at the time in our area had one in his car.
My first set up had 2 ma 10s, claimed 600 watts peak each but never had a model number on them but they sounded decent in the prefab bandpass box I got them in
MA Audio offered this amp for free to my old boss(R.I.P.) if he'd carry their products. The only problem was that we were selling the WORLD CHAMPS American Bass at the time. I always respected the bang for the buck MA Audio had going on. My buddy had 2 HK15s flexin back in the day
I had to MA audio amplifiers just like that but they did not have all the fancy little buttons mine was a 4000 watt amplifier and I had them on 6/12 in super pro super blue 12in woofers. And they did a really really good job. I hit a 150 2.3 on the SPL meter it was in a small 1982 Ford Escort 2 door Pony. Car ran good stereo sounded awesome and I was happy. I definitely miss those days.

There was a lot guys in that era putting out gear in that tier such as Audiobahn, Visonik, Cliff Designs, etc... (same parent company I believe) and some of their flagships were actually pretty unique.

I sometimes regret not picking up a pair of their HK15 subwoofers which I recall were about $150 a piece and came in a wooden crate.
