Description
The DC Audio 2.5k Competition Series mono block amplifier is a 2,500-watt monoblock built for serious subwoofer duties, with linkable capability for almost 6,000 watts from a pair. It’s designed to run 1 ohm per amp or 2 ohms when linked, and it includes a bass knob and clipping indicator for precise tuning on the vehicle.
- Output Power (RMS): 1000x1 @ 4 ohms (14.4V); 1700x1 @ 2 ohms (14.4V); 2500x1 @ 1 ohm (14.4V); 5000x1 @ 2 ohms (14.4V); Linked 2900x1 @ 1 ohm (16V); 5800x1 @ 2 ohms (16V). Real‑world: supports a wide range of subwoofers and when paired in linked mode can push very high total output for a dual‑amp install.
- 1 Ohm Stable / Linked 2 Ohm: Built to run 1 ohm per amp; when linked, configured for 2 ohms. This enables aggressive low‑impedance sub configurations without compromising stability.
- Linkable / Master‑Slave: The amp is designed to be linked for higher total wattage in a two‑amp setup, offering scalable power for larger systems.
- Variable Low Pass Filter: 24 dB/Octave crossover with Low Pass range from 35 Hz to 250 Hz, allowing targeted bass emphasis without letting off‑axis highs pass through.
- Subsonic Filter: 10 Hz–50 Hz to roll off ultra‑low frequencies that can waste power and muddy bass in small or misaligned enclosures.
- Bass Boost: 0–9 dB at 45 Hz for precise bass shaping without altering the rest of the spectrum.
- Controls & Indicators: Bass knob included; Clipping indicator alerts you to approaching distortion; wired remote control for on‑the‑fly adjustments; LED Power/Protect indicators.
- Connectors: 1/0 AWG Power and Ground Inputs; 8 AWG Speaker Terminals; Tiffany RCA Jacks; RCA Pass Thru for signal routing in multi‑component setups.
- Power & Protection: Max voltage 16.0 VDC; external 250 amp fuse; robust heatsink measures 13.78" L × 9.38" W × 2.35" H (350 × 238 × 59.6 mm).
In a real car audio build, this amp serves high‑output subwoofer configurations, whether as a single 1‑ohm channel or as part of a linked pair for increased headroom. The included bass knob, clipping indicator, and remote control make tuning straightforward, while the heavy‑duty power and ground provisions and premium RCA connectors support sustained, high‑power bass performance with clear, distortion‑free signal handling.
