aq... need to have good electrical, i hear they are power hungry.... I would go with the saz 2500, atomic 3k, dd m3a... none of which are in your price range but all good amps...

AQ all the way. I think db drive specs are overrated.

I've heard AQ's are very efficient from anyone that I've talked to.

@ OP, AQ all the way, it's a no contest. I haven't heard anything bad about their amps.

Whoever told you they are inefficient is an idiot..

AQ's are not inefficient and I've never heard a bad thing about them. I just picked up 2 used 2200's and have been running 8 3500's for 3 years now and have NEVER had a issue with them.
