[QUOTE="F.A.M., post: 96527, member: 545875"] Geez, after reading all of those post, I really don't know where to begin. It is true that 50 watts from a Jensen is going to be the same as 50 watts from an MTX. There is no set standard that these companies use when it comes to rating their amps though. So the fact of the matter really is, "Is your amp really giving you that power." For companines like Jensen or Sony Xplode, the answer is NO! As GSteg also said, you are getting better components usually when you buy more expensive amps (and don't forget you are also paying for the name). Where as some amps have set XO points, others can be variable. You are also paying for features too, some Zapco amps have clipping indicators, some Alpine amps has a voltage meter, etc. When was the last time you see a Jensen amp with anything like that. Just remember, you get what you pay for. But you have to determine for yourself if it's worth the extra money or not. Nuff said. Oh, one more thing, Class D = Digital Amps for bluh, bluh, bluh. WHERE THE HELL DID YOU COME UP WITH THAT?!??!?!?!?!
