PG Octane line??

[JUTTERB 10+ year member]

What have you guys heard about the Phoenix Gold Octane line of amplifiers??? I'm looking at purchasing a couple of their OCTANE-R 4.0:2 models.

(125W x 2(4 ohm stereo)

(400W x 1(4 ohm bridged)

One to power a set of CDT EF-61 CFi/25 6.5" comps (Power handling 160 rms)

One to power a single CDT CL 1015 10" sub. (Power handling 400 RMS, 600 max)

I'm a newbie to the stereo scene, but I've been lurking on this board for the past few weeks trying to find out who makes quality stuff these days. Tell me what you think about the amps, and if they will supply sufficient wattage to the "power-hungry" CDT's I've picked out.

Thanks for any help,

Joe

Or do you thing that a couple Alpine MRV-T420 V12 Amps would be better?

I know the PG Tantrum and Xenon lines kick some major ***...

I've heard a PG Octane before, worked fine pushing a W6v2 at a local shop, although the lights and bling-bling kind of detract from the cosmetics.

Bump,

Alpine MV-T420 or PG Tantrum. Let me know what you think??
