American Bass VFL 150.1 vs. Hifonics Colossus

[Goldtaz1 10+ year member]

Guys, which one of these two amps do you believe would be better suited to running my MT 18?? I will go with a quantity of two of whichever amp I choose. I was also considering the American Bass XD 3000? Do any of you know of any websites that sell American Bass amplifiers?? I found only one and it just didn't look like a place I wanted to do business. I was probably going to go direct to the companies so I could get the best pricing possible.

That's the place I had found, but they didn't seem to have much selection on their site. Do they carry more in store than whats on their site???

Their site isn't the best looking, just call them, they are awesome people to deal with. Tell em I sent ya.

Bob told us the XD3000 is the same thing as a VFL 150.1 just rated differently for different organizations...don't know if I believe that, but that's what the owner of American Bass told us.

Talk to btnhfan on here. He had one of my Colossus' and he tested 1 vs. 2 VFL's and I think the Colossus was like .2 down. Don't really remember, but talk to him he should be able to help you out.

Get the Colossus

2 vfls beats the colossus, but in my test, only by .2

I say colossus because it is cheaper

But if space is an issue, you will not be dissapointed with the vfls.

Great performing amps

I dont think AB does online sales

I would also go with the collosus....but I believe you should take Dave's and btnhfan's word for it....and get the collosus //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Do you think it would be a good idea to investigate running a Hifonics Goliath??
