with this budget...

I can get both amps BNIB for ~900.00 shipped. of the two which would you pick?

I know you would automatically think the BC5500 because of the 1000 rms difference, but based on clamp results, I've seen Sundown amps do very close to this at 1ohm.

FWIW all my other amps are Sundown and it would be nice to match BUT it's not the end all be all of my decision.

this is not a VS thread, I know they are both stout amps, this is more of a poll to tip the scales as I'm pretty much even in my decision and it would be nice to get some fresh perspectives and maybe others will know something that I don't about each amp.

They'll probably consider this a vs thread. If i had all sundown, I would stick to sundown.

Stick with sundown because it's a mean amp(not that the BC isn't) PLUS it matches the rest of your stuff. I'd say it would be an easy decision as I always match my stuff.

ah ok, well if they do, they do. Wasn't my intention. Thanks for the input.
