Worth the price then? If I got it, it would be running fronts.

Its a sub amp so that wouldnt work well... The price is a little high though

Im in Canada. Everything is too expensive. I saw that it was 300x2 @4 and just figured it would be full range. Why bother with tube pre-amp in a sub amp?

We'll see. For the most part right now im just waiting till i save some money. My plan is to get a powerful 4ch and bridge 2 for the sub or get a big 5ch like the big belle. This amp did intrigue me though, because I haven't seen too many tubes in car amps.

I just sold my Belle a month or so ago... Been trying to find some amps Im actually interested in but havent found many I like but I do like this...

Problem is shipping from Canada is alot. I plan on doing a very simple install in my new truck (new to me). I only want to run one amp and am probably going to go with coax's so i don't have to drill holes and less wiring.

Ya shipping is a ***** but it probably doesnt weigh much... Nothing wrong with a simple install, DD just put out a new 5 channel you may want to look in to...

I don't know what your budget is but that PowerBass 5 channel is really decent for the money. That new SoudnStream 6 channel is dope. Staggered ouptuts for ~ $300? I really like that JBL 5 channel. Really nice for the money.

Edit: Bettr... buy my surfboard Zapco and Boston neo SPG555

According to the info in the cl ad, it weighs almost 30 pounds and is 20" long. That ads up to expensive shipping here. I looked at the DD website, but info is not available. I will most likely buy used as i dont have lots of cash coming in right now. I need atleast 600 @1 or 4 as I already have a dual 2 sub.

Ill take a look into the amps Taylor mentioned too. I find many of the 5 channels are only 2 ohm stable for the sub which is disappointing. I was running a crossfire vr1000d to my sub @ 1and seemed perfect so I dont want to go much below 1000watts.

Gangster 5 channel with a 1ohm Class D sub side (I think that's right) is the eD 9.5? Is that the model? My buddy runs one. Active front and a wangin sub stage in the trunk. It's a beast.

My budget will probably be around 400, which is what I've seen a few belles go for. Ive also been interested in the alphasonik PMA640. It does 160x4@4, but can be run 160x2 + 960x1@1ohm which would be good since i dont care too much about rear fill.
