[QUOTE="gunz4me, post: 5772436, member: 596464"] [URL="http://www.tom-morrow-land.com/tests/ampchall/index.htm"]http://www.tom-morrow-land.com/tests/ampchall/index.htm[/URL] I wish you luck and please post back the results of the challenge. I agree there are some differences. Some subtle, some more noticeable depending on the amp in question. The full range Alpine PDX amp is one of the few modern amplifiers that I find to sound weird. They seem to lack midbass and I am not the only one who has noticed that they are a little on the cold side. You should hear my 2006 Mustang GT that I purchased used with Borla Stingers already installed if you want to talk about a noise floor from hell. The only car noisier than mine that I have heard with a sound system in it was a buddy's Camaro SS with a supercharger and Magnaflow exhaust making 650 RWHP. For these vehicles, there is no way you would catch me recommending Tru, Sinfoni, or Brax unless it was for the sheer sake of wasting money. Till this very day, Linear Power remains my favorite amplifier to put on mids and highs. I don't know what it is, but I have yet to find an amplifier that gives me the Linear Power sound. The other plus is that Linear Power was handmade in the USA and I can generally repair them myself. For the most part, I have only needed to replace resistors from eBay idiots who ran them too low, or audio filter caps, but that is about it. I did have one that had a sticking relay, but thumping it a few times fixed that issue:laugh: Regardless, I wonder how many Asian build house amplifiers that are all the rage right now will still be going strong 10, 15, or 20+ years from now?
