you won't notice a difference in sq between the 2. go with the one that fits your budget the best and adequately powers your speakers (don't know the specs of the amps off hand)

arc audio SE //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif . lol. those are the new amps arc audio that will replace the XXK line. but yea, go whatever has more power and better fits the budget. honestly can't really go wrong with neither.

I can hear a difference in sound between different amps..... I'd have to research the topologies and various bench measurements of the 2 to make an educated guess as to which one I'd prefer though //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif. Both companies make a solid product.

How are USamps in SQ these days? I have never used anything besides them for subs, but never used them as a SQ amp. Would this be a better option than looking for an old school art series from PPI?

IMO US amps fell off the face of the earth...when the people in the industry that supported the product in the past, no longer do so-that tells you something..

As mentioned...you won't hear a difference between them. Go for whichever has the power, features and aestethics you want.

Well I'm looking at a tube edition. I have liked them for some time. Maybe I will give that a go.

Thanks,
