Arc Audio KAR900.1 or Zapco REF 500.1

To try new things that are possibly better //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif.
I guess I like to EXPERIENCE new products, and find out whether or not I like them MYSELF. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

i audition a lot of stuff, but i only buy what i really like.

 
Before this gets to far off track are we gonna answer the guys question without fighting about it. How about lining up all the features each amp has and then see what is what. I think by doing that it will help to answer the guys question.

No, I'm not bitter or pissy that you chose to repond on the evolution thread like an adolesent. I just called you out on it. So, again, just mind you manners and we won't make fun of you ignorant statements. It's pretty simple really. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

i am very aware, //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif . i was actually refering how your excitment ended really soon after you started that thread.

 
AYYYY CAROMBA!!!!!

THIS THREAD ES MUY SUCIO. YO VOY A IR AL OTRA FORUMS.

Sorry, J/P trying to ease tension.

Any How, i sorry but i think arc wins it for simple matter of 900 v 500, plus arc has always been reliable so i hear, and are very solid and built well.

Like I said....buy the most power you can afford.
Which in your comparison, is the Arc.

X2

Arc900.1d is $389.95, and its underpowered atleast %10

450W x 1 @ 4 ohms

750W x 1 @ 2 ohms

900W x 1 @ 1 ohm

Zapco 500.1 is$369.00, i think its underpowered to, dont know by how much.

500W x 1 at 2 ohm RMS

800W x 1 at 2 ohm Peak

Based on price and power, i go with Arc900.1D . its only $20 more

but you cant go wrong with either. do a coin toss lol, heads ARC, tail ZAPCO lol

i got the price from, here

http://acaraudio.com/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=58&products_id=1672

PS: i dont think the Zpco 500.1 is 1 ohm stable, at least thats what the tech guy at Zapco told me.

 
the xxk wont run as long as the JLs, zapcos, diamonds, bostons, ppi's, etc.. in the same condition. that is my only point.

THATS BS, XXK is a top of a line amp, i wont compare the XXK with JL, or Diamonds or boston, couse their crap, but its in the same boat as the Zapco . both high quality amps.

and for the 1100.1, you threw out the xxk2500, which i would still take the 1100.1 over that.
I agree with you there, ill take the 1100.1 over the xxk2500,

it isnt 1 ohm stable. i said in this case, the 900.1 has the upper hand, way more power. and the 500.1 isnt at all underpowered. who the **** told you that?
