Car Audio Bargain amps any good?

I’m looking for a half bridge amp that’ll do at least 2000 watts rms @ 2 ohms, but I also don’t want to pay $800. Came across the CAB 45 and it has good reviews on their website. Just wondering if anyone on here has one or has used one and likes it? Or if you can recommend another amp let me know.
 
Im just a casual car audio guy.
My 2 cents CAB amps are legit and put out their rated power. Im pretty sure you cam find amp dyno vids on YouTube.

No reason to be worried about picking one up.

I bought a JP23 amp and they do more than rated and are very stable down to .5ohm.

Not sure what you mean by half bridge amp??? You talking about a 0.50 Ohm / 1/2ohm bridged amplifier??

I have friends that use these.

If I go full bridge it’ll be the SIA 3500.
So what about CT Sounds ?? They have an Excellent Reputation and great amplifiers that you may consider for the price Point?? I just picked up this one to play some lower wattage subs, or a pair of med. subs.These amps can be Strapped also

I have a Cab-22 and it is everything they claim and then some. They are really nice amplifiers. The only complaints that people have are the fact you have to buy the year warranty on them for an extra 90 dollars. It used to be 50 but they upped the price with the everything going up in cost. I like that Cab-22 I am thinking of selling my SIA 3.5K I am using now and buying a 2nd Cab-22 to strap them to get the 4500 watts I want to power my Fi Xv3's. I would buy a Cab-45 but why spend that when I can spend 250 and get another Cab-22 & get damn near the same results.

As Pop said the only complaints were that the pre-orders took awhile to get into stock because of shipping. And yes they are a Half-Bridge amplifier.

Well the eBay seller just refunded my money and said they were out of stock. So I think I’m down to the SIA 3500 or the 45. I’ll be running either at 2 ohms. And I can’t remember, but do full bridge amps like low voltage preamp inputs? My Sony is 2 volts. If they were the same price I’d definitely go with the 45, but if I can save some dough and get a “just as good” amp then why not. If you wanna sell that SIA let me know.
