The 3xl's are ok for daily subs, but SPL subs they are not. Ive got a buddy who has 8 15's in his tahoe and blows about 1/2 of them every drive by run he does when he still competed.

The Powerbass 3000's are solid amps, except for the fact that the capacitors fall off the motherboards sometimes. If you've found 3000 that's had that repaired, then its definately a good amp to get ahold of.

i have a set of 12's and i think they sound really good out of everything i owned. i have the same amp, the thing with the capacitor happened to me as well. and some resistors fell off but it is fixed now

i must say it is a stout amp. we hada bunch of the 1500's with that same problem.. but all in all they where a great amp.. just the cap's wernt glued to the board..
