Well I'll give Taramps a shot! The last amp I bought was an OG Planet Audio over 20 years ago before Boss Audio bought, raped, and discarded their bloody carcass (Im still pissed about that).
So, these new amps that are small, cheap and still put out high power are new to me. A 1500w amp for $600 used to be cheap lol. I did try the skar audio 1200w amp and sdr-12 500w subs. They were loud and put out power, but it definitely wasnt clean power and they didn't sound very good at all to me.
After that fail I tried looking at the other new brands and the updates on established brands, but the internet is a cesspool of fanboys and idiots so I have no clue what is good nowadays. So I just went with the tried and true brands and went to custom sounds and bought the Rockford Power T012D4 subs and JL 1500w amp. It looks like the amp is overpriced nowadays. The subs were $299 a piece, I don't think they were overpriced. I think they should compare to Alpine R's which are a little cheaper, and JL 12w6's which are way more expensive.
Anyways, thanks for the help and having actual knowledgeable info about the amps lol.
