PHOENIX GOLD OCTANE R8.0:4 Reviews?

[fishywishy]

Anybody use, or tested out this amp? Using a JBL 75.4II that went caput.. Need to take it back just looking for other suggestions to power my mids with 100 RMS X4 at 4 Ohms for my Type R's (6x9 and 5.25).

No experience with that particular model, but have been running an Octane R15 in the GF's car for the past year. Advertised as stable to 2ohm, but have been pushing a Q at 1ohm with no issues. The Octanes seem to be pretty solid amps from the reviews I've read....

I'm running an R8.0:4 to my boston pros for over about 2 years and no problems. It gets hot as **** too but never goes into protect. They are great budget amps.
