they are clean underrated amps. very good for the money. i can't find any birth sheet right now, but ask Jmac, he's the benchtest man.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

loads of power for the money but not a ton of features, I would take US Acoustics or cadence first though

I did a trial install with a Titanium TA-2700 running 2 subs at 4 ohms in mono. Sounded pretyy good, didn't get hot, no turn on, turn off thumps, no clipping, no noise. Thought it was pretty decent until the cell phone rang...... I pulled off the road at first, I thought my truck was going to blow up! If you don't use a cell phone, you will be fine with this inexpensive piece......

we just dont understand the truck blowing up part ....

Umm..no not really, unless you mean that whole part about it being kinda vague. "It's a good amp, then your cellphone rings and *Ka-Fu*king-Boom*

Who is we?? You got a mouse in your pocket?? hehe

The blowing up part was trying to exemplify the fact that when the cell phone went off the feedback from the amp was very LOUD. I thought at first I was having ENGINE TROUBLE, so I slowed down to check. It is definately a noisey amp.

We being he (nswartley)..and I. Why are you so **** jumpy man? We're just talking about this amp and you sound like you're ready to kill the next person that moves. I'm not sure how the feedback from your amp affected your phone though...

Although they do not very often put out their rated power, for the price and warranty, they are a fairly decent deal.
