I have used many of their older amps and they were awesome. I have never used any of their new stuff, so I cant say....

I've seen some of the ones that people rave about like the USA-2000 and USA-2000x and they look to be 2-channel amps... are these still good for subwoofers.... what have you had experience with?

I have used a USA-50, USA-100, USA-400 and a USA-2000x, I regret selling them //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crying.gif.ec0ebefe590df0251476573bc49e46d8.gif all except my 50

It seems like the USA-2000 would be better than the 2000x because US amps says that the 2000 can do 1ohm...

FYI...

US Amps seem to always be able to run lower than what is shown.

I personally use nothing but US Amps. They sold me on them years ago. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Very true, they were severly underrated and could handle way more than stated.

 

[SofireGuy 10+ year member]

so which would be a better pick out of the USA-2000 and 2000x???

What are you planning on running?

Depends on what you want to do... Do you want 2k watts of power @ 1 or 4 ohms?

The Xterminators were made to run at 4 ohms, which is the reason I had mine, I needed that
