800w @2ohm for less than $200 amp needed

[Blazer1 10+ year member]

I need to purchase an amp to power a couple of RE Audio 10's. The amp will be ran @ 2 ohms and needs to put out at least 800w and be less than $200.

I have a few in mind;

1.) Soundstream Rubicon 1.1000D- $199.00

2.) Hifonics BRZ1200.1D- $200.00

3.) Hifonics HFi1500D- $179.00

4.) Soundstream PCX1000D- $195.00

Are there any other I should look at?

Which of these would be the best option?

Hang out here for a bit and troll the classifieds. You can probably find 800 watts at 2 ohms for close to or under a hundred. If you look hard enough you could almost find that kind of power new for not much over 100.

Really looking for new only,..thanks for the suggestion though.

ap 1800 for 190 or so does 1000 at 2 ohms. or a ap 1500 for 160 or so does 800 or so at 2 ohms

You could check out ebay and get an audiopipe 15001D . Right around 150 to 160 shipped and brand new. Does 950 watts at two ohms and when you are ready to upgrade you can drop it down to one ohm and get 1500 watts. One of the better amps for the money out there right now.

Is the AP1500 a better or more powerful amp than the Soundstream Rub.1000D or the Hifonics HFi1500D?
