[QUOTE="youdoofus, post: 8657595, member: 664079"] It’s the t1500-1bdcp, I assume? and when you say 4 ohm, are you saying that each coil is 4 ohm? That amp is as good as the alpine, but suffers the same issue regarding cost per watt. For that money you can get into a DC audio, a DD, Crescendo etc etc with far more power and equally as reliable and warranty is taken care of like a champ on most of the newer big dog mfgs. Most of the good amps these days are made in Korea by one of 2 buildhouses (Zenon(not xenon) and S&I). "Brands" will contact one of those 2 and choose from a sheet of specs and features they want to have in their amps and then the buildhouses assemble them and put the brand and model # logos on them. They even have tons of heatsinks for brands to choose from if they dont have one they have as an identifiable shape they already have in mind like the rockford heatsink shape. You can literally make your own brand name up and get a hold of these folks and get your own amps made (minimum order of 600 units tho). The reason i say this is that some brands count on the folks who dont know this yet or dont trust in the other brands that have emerged in the last few years from these buildhouses to buy the old school brand names like rf alpine etc etc. Hell, the pioneer gm8601 puts down some stupid amounts of power for stupid cheap.
