CT Sounds T-1500.1D or Crescendo Audio s1v2

[verdi73]

Im looking for a new amp for my american bass xr-12(1200 watts rms).

I am leaning toward the crescendo because it is more efficient and only requires 4 gauge wire and it outputs more power, but the CT sounds is a little cheaper and I have heard a lot of good things about them.

Out of the two choices. Crescendo.

But I have to say neither.

Better off with a SFB 1500 from Sundown or something else. Out of the two Crescendo as he said.

Of those 2 the cresendo, especially since it's on sale (very efficent and overbuilt Korean board for $270 isn't bad at all)

CT Sounds have issues going boom and starting fires so yeah Crescendo. For the cheaper option then Sundown. Didn't know that one Crescendo was Korean interesting.

I thought all Crescendo were Korean? I’d choose the Crescendo as well.

Yeah there full amp catalog is Korean. Price and quality wise there on par with ampere audio and the Q series by soundqubed.

The crescendo model he's looking at is the same prices as the soundqubed Q1200.2 but is more powerful and a smaller footprint ($270 sale price is very fair for what it is)

I’ve always heard mostly good things about their amps but that their CS is severely lacking. I was very close to buying their 2500 for $450
