IMO for the money worth a try. Their comapny seems to be half decent, my first experience with their products.

Give us some feeback then after you've had a chance to test it out.
What do you plan to do with the amp, is it just a "i bought it cuz it was cheap thing" or do you actually need it.
Cuz if it turns out to be a good amp and you wana sell it i'll buy it....

Would you be interested in selling this amp?

Ryan,

thanks for the email, as for the comp4140 amp! its bout 4 years old! its way
off the beat and pad from the products that we build today! it was a good
sounding amp, with good THD, but as for dynamic headroom or the ability to
run woofers! NO NO NO, it is not a big fan of strong resistance or flex in
resistance, I would not run that amp to a set of RE subs! and the amp is
75x4 at 13.4V, not 150x4, that is a max power rated at higher voltage! we
are not fans of seeing those sold on ebay! but nothing we can do about it!
but if your interested, you can check out all of our new products at
www.ElevationAudio.com

thanks

Ok guys (kiki), Im having a hard time understanding why this amp is not capable of running subs, but would be fine for coaxials or other speakers? If the sub is 175 WRMS Total (87 WRMS per coil) and the amps output is 75WRMS x 4 @<hidden> 4 Ohms, and possibly a set of coaxials that are 100 WRMS and 4 Ohms. How is the amp better suited for one and not the other? Considering power requirements being the same, just one on a full pass and the other a low pass?

Well we hooked this amp up yesterday.

All I can say is a waste of money.

As you can see I was in direct contact with Elevation Audio. He told me I shouldnt judge their company on this older equipment as they have progressed and changed a lot.

So in conclusion, these older product suck, dont buy them.

Newer stuff appears to be good, with good reviews.

Those amps are total shit, nothing liek their new stuff! Here is what the owner of Elevation Audio had to say about them! (His screen name changed by me)

DetroitBassTuner: so is old Elevation amps not as good as new ones?
elevation: THEY ARE FUCKING GARBAGE
DetroitBassTuner: lol thats what i hear
elevation: we didnt design them they were built for us and we ended up sueing the company that did them for us!
DetroitBassTuner: my friend hooked up the one he just bought, i think he emailed u about it actually, and it said it was trash
elevation: they are over 6 years old
DetroitBassTuner: holy shit, no way

So there ya have it. New Elevation Audio is good, old is garbage.

Can't wait to hear how the newer stuff is. It looks pretty decent. Not a lot of xmax tho...

I went to the website and apparently they are only about 30 miles from where i go to college.

The company probably has progressed since the time that piece o' crap was made. The internals are pathetic looking.
