I know. I don't use it myself either. Just stating why the xover section looks different on the AQ.

The difference in ratings is funny to me. I know they could have different components in there to change the output, but a 600w swing between the 2608 and the cadence seems a bit dramatic.

The Bxi is not overrated, not the 08's.

Watch how the Cadence is going to be underrated by about 600 watts.

The latest run of AQ2200D's have a modest bass boost for those who think they need it.

i have 2 aq 2200d amps 1 that has bass boost and 1 that dose not. i dont use bass boost anyways dont need it unless your HU voltage is super low.

Cadence usually rates its amps at a lower voltage than other companies. Hifonics rated the bxis at 14.4. That alone can mean a few hundred watts. AQ is built beefy ,prolly does a little over 2200.

So IMO they are all about on the same level.

AQ and Hifonics about the same price now BNIB, cadence is a hair more expensive. But you have to remember Cadence is big with B&M's..... atleast around here it is....
