[QUOTE="quackhead, post: 7769840, member: 573547"] LOL..Like you said, most manufacturers make different design lineups for different budgets. In MTX, the one I posted will do rated, usually rated +. The jupiter I posted is from HiFonics' top line of amps..going down from there, u have the Brutus Elite, Brutus BRZ, Gladiator, Zeus and HiFi. The Brutus BRZ is a good budget amp, it will do within a respectable 10% of rated, and for the $170 spent, it is a beast. My wife has been running a 1200w Brutus for 6 yrs @ 1ohm on 2 15's with 0 issues. Sonically, I cannot hear the difference between it and my AQ2200D, except in output volume. I figured between ohm rise and doing a tad less than rated, you would be good with that amp at 2ohms, with good headroom and room for future system design changes, should your mind change.
