medley123 Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 I was looking around for a good amplifier that can do around 1200 rms and stumbled across the Cadence F1200-1D. Says it does about 1200 RMS at 1 ohm. Has anyone had experience with this amp and could tell me if they are durable?

curtdakota Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 ^^ what he said, you cant go wrong with the AQ1200D, ive ran one for the past year and a half, and have zero complains, its a good solid amp that puts out rated, or a little more then rated power. its VERY hard to beat for the price to quality ratio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyablo409 Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 what about the crescendo audio 3000rms are those good or are the audioque better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curtdakota Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 what about the crescendo audio 3000rms are those good or are the audioque better? as far as i know they are basically the same board, but dont quote me on that, im not all too familiar with crescendo amps, but from what ive heard, they are on par with each other.

The dicussion becomes a vs thread which is not allowed. Edited June 13, 2011 by TeamHT Quote Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?

nCOMP1337 Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 in terms of quality i think crescendo and audioque are quite close i know AQs are underrated a bit i believe not sure about crescendos as far as cadence goes, i think it depends on which line of amps do rated and i am not sure which are the ones, but i know many of their amps are good, just dont know which i would also suggest AQ1200 over a cadence, AQ is about the best budget quality amp you can get crescendo is priced jsut right to compete and it does give good power, but as far as a company, AQ has more time in the business, but that doesnt mean crescendo isnt just as good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert8252 Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 I ran a cadence tx-a750d for two years and loved it. Can't say it did rated but it was a very solid amp and did great for my needs at the time.

medley123 Posted June 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 yeah, AQ1200D was what I was originally looking at, but then I did some searching on Audiosavings and found the cadence f1200 that says 1200 rms at 1 ohm and its $100 cheaper. I was just wondering if the cadence had decent quality Quote 2006 Ford EscapeHead Unit: Kenwood KDC 352Subs: (3) 15" DC XL 15s with PSI recones, 1.4 ohm coilsSub amp: DD Audio M4 (Black Version)Door Speakers: (2) Crossfire 10s, (2) Hertz Coax.Mid/highs amp: Rockford Fosgate P500-4 Electrical:XS D3400 under the hood(3) XS XP3000s in the back2 runs of KnuKonceptz OFC 0 Gauge ran to the back (1 pos, 1 neg)Excessive Amperage 300 amp alt (FINALLY!)
