they are both really good amps but the gp3000 will take upto 18 volts stable and put out close to 4500 watts rms or so at 18 volts.

well i check around for prices and the crunch 3000 gp pro is $450.00 on the online car stereo website and audiopipe 3000 for $419.00. but i thought about getting 2 audiopipe 1500 watts and strapped about $360.00 for both ap 1500 watts amp(is that a good idea to do)

when it comes to voltages i really don't know, but i know when my surburban is running my voltage regulator reads about 14.5 -15, so i my voltage could be at

16volts. the greatest penn has seen my surburban

its putting out closer to 14.7 gm alternators are among the best as far as stock is concerned.

the gp3000 is the better of the 2 in my opinion by alot. I know alot of guys burping with them at .50 ohms and pushing close to 5500 watts at 16 - 17 volts and rated power (2800 -3000 rms) at 14 volts in daily drivers.
