Ok... I have stayed out of this one so far but it's time to add my .02... for $200 its one H*ll of a deal... the ability to run daily... (I've seen one last 16 months)... at 1/2 ohm is really unusual in a $200 amp... it may not last forever at that load but they'll do it and last awhile... granted some will fail... but if the electrical is somewhat beefed they'll do just fine... IMHO that's what makes the CAB so special... it's ability to take those low impedance loads for awhile and deliver... at 1 ohm it's nothing more than another +1500 watt amp... but take the other ones and drop them down to .5 ohm next to a cab at the same load and see which one smokes... I'm not a dyno watcher or believe in dynamic numbers, uncertified results or all the hype people create over videos made in the pursuit of truth... hey more power to ya'!.. I do know that it's a decent amp at 1 ohm, can handle low impedances for awhile and has all the right features (adjustable SSF, adjustable LP and gain)... LOL... that's all a sub amp needs IMHO... I'm huggin' dem nutz over its low impedance ability... sure... why not?.. for the price it's hard to beat.
