Hi

I'm gonna get a new amp for my sub i just need about 700W for my new MB Quart RWE-352.

Right now the options i'm looking are:

- MB Quart PAB 1200.1D $240

4-Ohms : 600 x 1

2-Ohms : 800 x 1

1-Ohm : 1200 x 1

- Hifonics BXi1206D $200

450W x 1 @ 4 Ohm

900W x 1 @ 2 Ohm

1200W x 1 @ 1 Ohm

- Auqioque 1200D for $250

510X1 @ 4 ohm,

870X1 @ 2 ohm,

1200X1 @1 ohm

I dont want to spend more than $250 and want good quality, something that last for long time.

Thanks.

I heard alot of good things about the AQ brand, Ive also had the 2006D before and its a pretty solid amp for the price. I had it pushing a hd315 **** good.

i know the AQ2200 and Hifonics bxi2607d are the same amp. i would say AQ because they will have better costumer service

i loved my 2607d, but audioque has been quite the boner lately, so im guessing they are gonna have pretty solid amps.

maybe the same board. i doubt its the same componenets.

the 2607 and AQ 2200 have the same boards not the same amp, just like the Celestra DA2K shares the same board but none of them are the same amp. I am sure the AQ's have better part quality which is exciting because I have owned 2 Hifonics BXI2607's and they put out a ton of power, so I know that the AQ will be at least as powerful probably more powerful than the Hifonics, and the Hifonics pushed the hell out of my HD3 15's. I will see by next week I do have high hopes though

Costumer service is nothing for my cause i live in dominican republic and shipped back to usa and then back to my country is to expensive.

That's good info, i wont use more than 700 but is always nice to have some extra room.

IMO AQ does not ship outside of the US currently and i'm still asking them to ship the HDC to me (i'm in Malaysia) so go with the Hifonics

u can get a 1606d from ebay for 200

the AQ if possible

It looks like AQ is getting the votes. I'll see this week and let everybody knows. My biggest concern is the quality of the amp i want the best one in quality terms, the one that last longer.

Cause i get a PA A1800DB and it was great while it work, but it stop working in just about 3 month of normal use, giving just 700W, i want something that last, like mi profile amps, they are not the best but they handle a lot of abuse.
