OK I see a lot of people talking about what they think are more then one board in a single case.

Does anyone have a current listing as to how many of these amps exist?

Can people post what amps they think are multi-boarded amps?

I think the 4kw,sledgehammer,Microwave are all multiboard can you think of any more and do you have pics?

How many boards are in the vlx amps? I remember it having 4 power supplies.

Do they even still make the VLX? [Confused]

Hi,
if we name the SPL Dynamics, we must name the American Bass amps also,
because its the "same" amp.
But, 1 Amp (case) with two boards is usual for
many years. There are some examples, LIKE the VLX
and this very old (but good) Earthquake 4 Channel amp,
dont know the name anymore, 4300 ???

If we/you want to get these amps away, we must find
another argument than two amps in one shell, or
maximum channels or whatever.
4KW was in advantage the recent years, now the
American Bass/SPL Dynamics is...

Üüüühh!!!
Michael
(who will not like it, to see the 4 KW banned,
because he has 4 of them...
On the other hand, its allowed to use 2 2 channel
amps in street, so that there is no difference
anymore between a 4 KW and 2 9.0´s or any other
bridgeable 2 channel amp,
but all
this you know already [Wink] )

very true michael... i forgot to mention the us amps 400hc, 200hc, us amps usa 800 as well. i think we need to limit number of amp boards for street since we are not willing to limit power. i think we need a rule that says if your car doesn't start because the battery is drained you are dqed if we do not go to having the cars back on, and playing songs for a certain duration...

I think that we need to look at the number of power supplies in amps. Any amp can have multiple boards in it but I think the issue comes when the board can be lifted out of the case and run on its own. I know people that have uncased xtant amps and run then screwed to a mdf board. You can do this with the 4kw. Can you run a single board out of the vlx? Yes it has 4 power supplies. I'm not sure on the ab or spl dynamics amps.

This is all fine and well but what happens when they just start making the same power with just one board in the same case????

We will call it a crown 6000 and start a different thread. [Big Grin]

I would just like to see consistancy in street amp classification. I saw the thread on the new Street A world record and the first thing that was brought up was the amps were shady under the rules about channels. I think this needs clarification for next season.

I personally would prefer to see single Boards in casing, two boards contitute two Amps in my eyes. We have to determine the power supply question per board also. [Confused]
