I don't know nearly has much as some of the more experienced people on this forum, but one thing I can tell you is, Lanzar amps are a joke. Look at the 2nd amp. The only RMS spec they have is at 4 ohms 1250 watts RMS. After that it says at 2 ohms 2500 watts MAX, 1 ohm 5000 watts MAX. None of those figures are true. Forget your 2nd and third option. Get the Brutus. That will definitely do rated power and more.

sounds good so far, and some lanzar amps might be overrated, but i stand beside my opti6k and optiscion amp..they make my highs hi and make my driveway cracked..the lanzar max pro amp looks a little funny but makes you think with it having 0ga power inputs and 250a fuse rating kinda makes you think..but brutus takes it so far

Opti lines are legit... Go with what makes u feel good inside a few 100watts want make a difference..

aq2200's can be found for under 300 used.. Just another option ran one for a good year nice amp.

Until I see other reliable reports I wouldn't trust anything Lanzar besides the OPTI Drive line. Those are pretty proven.

Brutus.... Guy at work here has one and it's solid! He's had it for over a year and he beats the shlt out of it.

I've heard good things about the Opti's though I've never heard one in action.
