SS Rubicon 2500d vs 2 Apsm 2ks

[bgowdy 5,000+ posts]

This may be a odd comparison, but im trying to decide which would be better. I already have 1 apsm2k now.

I have came down to this, i can run 2 apsm 2k's strapped or a Rubicon 2500 @ .5ohm. I can sell my mine and buy a Ruby2500d for about the same price as the 2nd apsm2k. Im thinking in the end that they will be about the same amount of power seeing the apsm2k turns REALLY dirty when ran hard so i dont plan to push for 4k because i know AP's wont do it, and the rubicon is a more reliable amp overall.

Electrical for either scenario is not a problem, mines good.

Opinions, pls and thank you. I need to know pretty quik because someones wanting my APSM2k.

I'd go with the rubicon. More reliable and I bet it puts out the same amount of power as the apsms strapped

Thats what i was thinking, if the apsms do more power, it wont be by that much

Probably won't notice much difference between them. And the Soundstream is better quality IMO

I know it is, im not really hard on or abuse my equipment. I think i am leaning towards getting the ruby.

Might see if you could find an older dtr3400

It was designed to be ran at .5 and should cost about the same
