Pyramid's a brand.thats before pyramid bout them out
Compared to pretty much anything. Gotta remember, this sub was built when you were 7 years old. You probably didn't know car audio existed until after the Sound Around buyout. You would have a totally different view of companies like Lanzar and PPI and Orion and Soundstream and Hifonics and, well, pretty much all of them, if you were doing this back when they were all made in the USA and not owned by some gigantic corporation. When Lanzar was built in Canoga Park, CA and PPI and Orion both had Made In USA proudly emblazoned on everything they built. It was a different time then. And 11 years after it was built, I would easily put my 10" Lanzar DC SVC 4 ohm against pretty much anything built today in terms of SQ. Only sub I've found that I would even think of replacing my DC with is an AA Assassin.compared to?
ya those older vibe 1200d's did rated power or at least really really really close, all off 12v or less.... for the money they are some of the best budget amps in the $150 or less catogory. i loved mine before i sold it to get more power. the optidrive are better quality, relativly efficent, and reliable for daily driving. other than the opti's and old vibes (only the class D vibes, never used the class AB's but id imageing they wouldnt sound too nice), the rest of lanzars stuff isnt worth the money. the vibe 1200d and 1800d are worth it, as well as the opti's.the original vibe1200D put out 1100 watts, and was PWM regulated, just like the optis, and that single amp is the reason 'vibe' amps are usually regarded as good, but the only ones that are gauranteed to be good are the optis, which are about 20x more expensive than any other lanzar.
