This really irritates me when people go talking about something they know nothing about....
The design and parts that are in the AQ1200D are similar to the Sundown SAZ-1000D, NOT the SAE-1200D. Totally different design, much more power output.

Sundown recently posted a test with the following results:

@ 1 ohm - SAZ-1000D = 1040 watts (which would be like the AQ1200D)

@ 1 ohm - SAE-1200D = 1770 watts (blew fuses at that point)

The AQ amp likely uses IRF640 and IRF9640 outputs, which are great, but this is a design that uses N and P Channel mosfets. The SAE-1200D only uses N Channel outputs, Fairchild FDA59N25, we replace with IRFP360LC like in the SAZ-3000D or SAZ-3500D and 1000 other Korean made big class D amps out there use IMO the IRF parts are better. On the power supply side the AQ1200D uses like 8 IRF3205 or something similar to that, and the SAE-1200D uses 12 IRF3205. The SAZ-1000D uses 8 DFP70N06 which are similar to what's in the AQ1200D if not the exact same.

Here is an illustration for you. This is the inside of the AQ 1200D. The mosfets are under the black clips inside the yellow rectangles I drew.

Dang, I'm now having a hard time one which should I buy. I hate buying used products though, and the fact that these need repairing is making me think I'm holding a match to $125...

The IRF9640 x 4 should read IRF9640 x 3. It should have a total of 6 IRF9640's and 4 IRF640's.

Dude, check our rep. We are dB-r... we wouldnt hold a match to your $125. These may be scratched up, may not have a box or remote (some do some don't) but they will all work fine. There is a 30day warranty. Normally we do 1 year, but at this "Clearance" price I am only willing to go 30 days.

alright; buy the used stuff or not; its a deal and a half; i get wat ur saying taht youd rather be 100% sure that it works 100% when you get it. but if you want to get it for cheap; thats another story; and ive heard nothing but good things from DBR... if you buy it; its gonna work; if it dont; then return it....

Lol x2..Even if I dont get a remote...250$ for 2x 1200Ds..i wont give a shit if i have to buy remotes lmao. And refurb doesnt mean its "temp fixed" and gonna blow in a week like some people seem to think..

These will all get the same rebuild as the 1 Year Warranty amps do. For this price we can only do 30 days warranty, it's a "Clearance Sale". Jacob might be able to get remotes but I bet it's gonna be expensive, there is a whole new SAE-1200D v2 model coming out and I am not sure if it's gonna use the same remote, it probably will though.

Chris does great work and he backs it up . I picked up a 1200d refurb. a couple months back and it works flawless. Just costed me around $340 though. Still worth every $ .
