Is this truly a good quality, reliable amp, at least as good as a Kicker ZX1000.1, which I was also looking at? I'm paranoid because Audio Que is not a big or well known company and known of the installers that I've spoken to, know of them. 2. So my installer told me that since I don't listen to music [B]very[/B] loud and don't care to vibrate the screws loose in the trunk, but do want qualtiy, strong bass, I don't need full power from this amp. He suggests hooking up the AQ1200D at 4 oms to my two JL10W6's and says that for my listening habbits, 500 watts will be more than plenty to give good clean kick and at the same time, give the speakers more protection. He's right about my listening habbits, but is he right about the rest? [/QUOTE]
