Well, its not so much underrated, as it is overbuilt. You can give it incredibly high voltage with very low ohm loads and it will still perform great!

I agree ^^^ I think its underrated in the sense that you can get way more than 1800 watts out of it but it will probably be right at rated power with 12V input and 1 ohm impedance

what would be a better match for 4 ia lethal injections? the ia 20.1 or aq 2200d

20.1 is an awesome amp for those subs. .5 ohms, that amp will pound those subs.

it needs at least half ohm to come alive //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

16v up to 18v is where the IA amps excel, below that they are pretty much doing rated power.

what you should ask is how OVERRATED is the 20.1. In a normal daily setup it wont put out much power, you really need to run it at .5 or lower to get your money worth.

I'm really leaning toward doing 3 LIs off an aq 2200D, I don't do anything upwards of 16v and its almost half the price. The 20.1 IS a sexy amp though, no doubt. I'm wanting to start entering my truck in some local db comps, but know nothing about what class I'd be in, could you guys help me? It would be an 03 ex cab silverado with a blow through(coming) , stock alt (for now) yellow top under the hood.

I'm not trying to start a versus thread , but if you got the cash go with the 20.1 , I've used both , they are both great amps , but in my opinion the 20.1 is hands down the better amp

if you have the electrical to back it up, run it @ .5 ohm, either way those subs are gonna get *** ***** no matter what..............but in a taylor rain way //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

pick an org...USACi,dbDrag or what? the blowthrough puts you with the big boys in USACi unless you're doing streetbeat.
