No doubt the mmats they are awesome amps..

meh, leaning more towards the eclipse. The plugs on both sides of the amp kind of messes up where I am going to mount it. Plus its a stronger amp with better xovers.

I love my XA amps, sound amazing, easy on the electrical, and imo look pretty cool.

I went ahead and bought the XA.

Care to explain in detail?

Here's some inside shots:

Yeah man you definitely should've picked up the MMats lol...It's way more efficient and it's more than likely a better SQ amp as well. Not that the Eclipse is bad, by any means.

lol more efficient? you have any tests showing the mmats efficiency?

and i doubt it's sq is better.

cuz a watt is a watt 'member? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/sneaky.gif.7189749b3a3f769e8815b47e8ae87f88.gif

I doubt it's more efficient at all...the Eclipse is a full range class D.

Having the rca' on one side and power/ground on another threw off how I wanted to mount it. I loved the xa5000 I installed for someone years ago

Mmats amps are superior, I'm not going to get into an argument..

Look up the parts and do the research..

If you where comparing mmats to zapco etc then it might be legit but your comparing it to a ice powered full range class d amp, the slew rate alone will tell the story..

I still want to get a 4000 and 5000, just to have them all lol
