[QUOTE="Steven, post: 69346, member: 544311"] I would place kenwood about the same area as Jensen, sony Xplod, American Legacy and other "cheap to buy" brands. One thing that alot of people don't realize is that if they have a choice between a RF 300w amp for $500, or a Jensen 300w Amp for $150 the jensen is the better deal. With RF and the other "top" name brands you pay for the name on the product not whats inside. I tore a pyramid amp apart and what did i find: regulated power supply - Good 105C caps - Good 8 transistors - More is better Strange how a 800watt pyramid amp can sell for $180 while the RF equiv. is close to $1000 if not over. In the very end it all comes down to, what do you want: If you want to say I have Rockfor Fosgate. then by all means buy their stuff. But if you want a system that sounds just as good buy Jensen, pyramid, Kenwood. You'll have alot more money left over [/QUOTE]
