Ppi ba1600.4 $100?

It looks like these are selling for under $100 lol... I was looking at the ppi900.4 class D version that does maybe 10% more power, and it's about 50$ more in price. They're both cheap but I need some clarification, what is the best value? I'm almost weary of the 1600.4 frying in a year because it's so cheap and I haven't seen a lot of people running them unlike the 900.4 which is pretty well known.

you rather get something untested unproven vs something thats tested to do proper power?

900.4 is a class D amp, super tiny, and has active crossovers.

1600.4 is a class A/B, Not as small, and doesn't have active crossovers.

The reason I made this thread was to mostly determine if the 1600.4 has been proven. Unfortunately, there wasn't a lot of information available on google.

Any idea if the 1600.4 does rated, ever run the 1600.4?

No one took a shot at running it so nope. Could be rebadged power acoustik for all we know.

I'll probably end up getting the 900.4, some more research and I've found people mentioning they use cheap components for the 1600.4. I guess the 900.4 probably does as well for that price though lol
