Taramps HV 20–40 CHIPEO High-Voltage Car Amplifier

High-voltage amplification for specialist car-audio builds

The Taramps HV 20–40 CHIPEO is a single-channel Class D amplifier listed for high-voltage car-audio systems. It is intended for carefully engineered installations, not a direct replacement for a conventional 12 V amplifier. Have a qualified high-voltage car-audio professional assess the complete system before purchase or installation.

Highlights

• One output channel for compatible audio systems.
• The source describes a 20,000–40,000 W RMS power range across different operating configurations; it does not provide a complete test table. Do not assume 40,000 W RMS at every voltage or load.
• Listed minimum output impedance: 0.5 ohm, subject to the manufacturer's configuration limits.
• Class D design and a listed frequency response of 10 Hz–8 kHz (-1 dB).

Specifications from the source listing

• Model: Taramps HV 20–40 CHIPEO; one channel; Class D.
• Described operating range: 90–302 V DC, associated in the source with 7–24 batteries in series. The same source separately states a 10–340 V supply range. These figures are not interchangeable installation instructions; verify the correct operating limits in the manufacturer's manual.
• Minimum listed output impedance: 0.5 ohm. The source states an additional restriction when using more than 17 batteries in series: minimum final impedance of 1 ohm. Confirm all voltage/load combinations with Taramps before installation.
• Listed minimum input sensitivity: 310 mV at 0.5 ohm with level at 100%.
• Listed idle current: 52 mA.
• Physical dimensions, weight and housing material: not supplied in the source listing.

High-voltage safety: Series-connected battery banks can present a lethal electrical hazard. Do not handle, wire or service this equipment without the manufacturer's documentation and an appropriately qualified professional. Confirm compatible components, protections, isolation, ventilation and the actual package contents before use. Warranty terms were not supplied.
