Sundown Audio

Recommended Posts

ok so ive been looking around for some deals on amplifiers and I keep in touch with several local pawn shops, and have them on the lok for quality high output amps. (everyone around here with anything worth a damn doesn't sell it though, especially to pawn shops..) never the less you never know when someone might sell I nice aq2200 or need some money and sell an actual good amp.

well I know kicker subs aren't the greatest but ive heard a lot of good form their amps, and I was contacted by a buddy at a pawn shop who just had an amp default on pawn.

its a kicker zx 1500.1......

does 1500 @ 2 14.4v cea-2006 certified 1.5% thd.... I thought that was strange

but yea any thoughts? there asking 200 with my old alpine mrx-m100? little steep but room to talk them down

should I snag it for the extra power (needed) power or hold off on something better

fyi- funds are short cant afford a good new amp, a break in to my car about a month set me back quite a bit

sorry about the break in dude that sucks but I wouldn't take that deal if it were me.. You can find a better deal than that.. Try FS/WTB thread on here,craigslist and shop online for something on sale. Check out open box deals at places like sonic electronix.

helllllll noooo. Better off keeping your amp and saving up for something like a 1400.1, or a 2k or something like it. If I were you, I'd just keep your eye open in the for sale section here, and could also try looking on CACO. I personally don't think there will be a massive difference between 1000-1200 watts, to 1500-1600 watts. At least not a 200 dollar difference.

Current setup in my 96 Hoe

Hu - Pioneer DEH-80prs.

Amps - (4) Crossfire C5 1700D's, MTX Thunder 5604(mids), PPI Art 300.2 (tweets)

Batts - 4 91ah rear batts, 50ah batt up front.

Subs - 2 Crossfire XSv2 18's

Alt - Singer 330A

Front stage - Random JL & Eclipse mids, Eclipse tweets
