Looking for Spec's or manual for Hifonics Zeus ZX 4000 200 Watts x 2 Car Audio Amp

Thanks for using FixYa - a 4 THUMBS rating is appreciated for answering your FREE question

would definitely look at getting it repaired. These new amplifiers can't hold water to an old school Zed audio hifonics Zeus.

Mono amps have single power in so if it is stereo then it should have two.

if i were you i would put the switch to 4ch and the run one sub from ch1-2 bridged and then ch3-4 bridged. I would have to bet this amp is stable only to 4 ohms bridged with so many channels

yes you have a internal fault of the amp. the circuit that puts it into safe mode is bad and or a channel or power supply and that is a very small chip on the board know as a op amp. needs to be repaired.

The power draw may be eccessive, try placing a capacitor (or a bigger one ) on the lines to the amps.

Hello king3132,

Three 4 ohm subs can be wired parallel for a 1.34 ohm final load or series for a 12 ohm load. If you have the channels of the amp bridged, I hope that the subs are connected in series because the Sony XM-2200GTX is NOT rated for or stable at 1.34 ohms. It's only stable down to 4 ohms.

You definitely will not get the maximum potential of the subs from that amp. They can handle 400 watts RMS each (total 1,200 watts) and the amp is only capable of 500 watts RMS into 4 ohms (less at higher impedance), so each sub could only be getting a maximum of 166.6 watts RMS.

Hope this helps.

first off nice choice on the amp check ur power and ground connections make sure the main battery to bady ground is good if questionable add a new one cant hurt to have extra grounds from the batt to the body make sure the amp ground is as short as u can make it make sure its grounded to bare metal if any of these dont work u may have a prob inside ur amp 

It's likely that the amplifier has shorted output transistors. If that's the case, they will have to be replaced. If you have zero experience with electronic repair, you should pay someone to repair it instead of trying to repair it yourself.

Let me know if you have any other questions.
