[QUOTE="Wingman0121, post: 7119447, member: 620554"] I used to have a "1000" watt Pyramid Studio amp in my house except it only did 150 watts before running into clipping, which is distortion. The difference between a Pyramid to a Sundown is huge. Sundown is not a "name brand" like the **** on Pimp My Ride so you're not paying for its name... it has more flexible crossovers, better input/output terminals, quality control and ability to run low impedance for extended period of time. A more expensive amp tends to have better protection circuit, better layout on the circuit board and may include capacitors that are rated to higher temperature, matched transistors and tighter tolerance for its parts. Zapco is way up there in terms of a quality amp but it'll hurt the wallet too. [/QUOTE]
