You can strap em?

yea, you can strap apsm's as well, they pretty much the same amp, just a different style case/heat sink. there are gut pics on caco of it from a guy that bought 1

These are APSM clones, don't do near rated power clean, and there's no warranty as far as I can see..... You get what you pay for.

I'm okay with that lol for the price well worth it.

But by APSM you mean audiopipe? Sorry if that sounds ignorant just don't know what the acranam means

Yes that's correct.. And the APSM 1500 clamped 400w before it started distorting, I'd hardly call that "worth it"... That's how you damage your equipment -- especially subs.

Eh I've ran a few Ap amps 1500d and 3000d had two of each never once have I blown a single sub on either and with sub par electrical at best when I owned them I've had nothing but good expirences distorted or not personally never noticed a difference at all and im sure my xfls will be fine with a little abuse (if that's the case) I'll be plenty happy with 4000 watts of potential "dirty" power for less than 200 bucks so to each his own I've read they are beefier than Audiopipe tho when I've opened my AP amps I was fairly impressed personally doesn't look any less than my t2000 or my jbl amps

the apsm 1500 does about 900clean and the shark amp is a copy of the apsm 2000 not 1500 as far as i can tell

the apsm's are actually the clones, the sharks came out a while back in a small run //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

These came out before the APSMs. They used to be a forum boner back in like 07

1800w at 0.5 ohms... distorted all to hell... efficiency less than 50%.. Yeah, I'll be staying away from the APSM and anything related to it.

I've seen people run 2k to a single XFL with no problems so that's not saying much lol

My setup sure didn't sound distorted. Sounded better than most of the stuff I heard at heatwave.

I love when people are not afraid to back companies like audiopipe and such admitadly they are not the best and will produce a little dirty power but at the same time are CEA compliant. And will sure enough do rated and I don't believe that just because its slightly dirty that it will damage anything as long as your electrical supports it.

I've never once ruined a sub on an AP amp and I've used them on everthing from Walmart duals to Ap eye candy to W7s to t1s and HCCAs I got as loud as expected to the ubs limits and coils have always read fine when undecided to get rid of said sub's even some audiobahns from their golden era they were 10 years old and I used a DMM to set geins
