[QUOTE="b0r, post: 8151600, member: 634569"] Yep! The "problem" with it is that it's pushing like 11+ years old. I'm pretty sure it's 1 ohm stable, but it's a power hog. I always said "Maybe with the advancements in technology over a DECADE that new amps will provide good power with slightly less power draw" and that's all I see, people saying: "OMG upgraded from xx amp from 2004 to new 2012 amp and my lights barely dim anymore blah blah". While this may or may not be true, I am going to give it a run while also being able to say to myself that all of my equipment is new and hasn't been abused by anyone previously. I got the JBL BP1200.1 used in 2010-2011, it still kicks to this day and I can safely say I love it. Never overheats, but does get warm, never shuts off. Never blows fuses, it's like a dream amp come true. I set it and forgot about it. Who knows how many (if any) rebuilds or repairs it's gone through in a decade prior to my ownership. And I just paid $415 for my Fi BL 15 and I want to know that I am giving it solid power. And aside from ALL of that, my buddy wants a ready to go system, so he's getting everything in my car but the in-dash and the wires. [/QUOTE]
