dolarbilz Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 How many of those of you talking shit have actually used or owned AP? Like.. Have hands on experience.. Just curious.me. twice now. one 2 channel and one monoblock [which is 2 amps strapped together but its still a monoblock?] Now to be honest, you cant really hear the difference between a aduiopoop and a jl amp. But both mine are like mini ceramic heaters. which is kinda nice for me up here in canada because it helps defrost my windshield [no joke] but for you usa folks..... yeah. i dont like the fact they dont make rated power, but what do you expect for this amount of money. i was wrong in my last post so yes. i ran audiopipe. No, i would not recommend it IF YOU CAN AFFORD BETTER. no you will not hear the difference. again everyone, i was wrong on my first post. Oh I'll say there a sound difference between a jl 1000 slash and audio shit 3000 owned both ..bought audipipe just cause.was a pile if shit..if you can't hear diffrence your ears are full of shit or maybe i just dont give a shit and dont have the need to point out spectacularly small petty things like "oh em gee it sounds like shit from 2000hz to 2300hz" i didnt notice a difference and i dont care to. i run pro drivers and sq isnt my priority. Then why don't say I don't give a shit how it sounds it works for me and cheap. but comparing it to a nice amp is why off.now I'm no where near sq..but I like nice sound.

Cardboardcat15 Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 Here's my POV on the whole audiopipe/audiopoop situation... You can buy the amp and run it, it will do exactly what you want and expect it to. It's gonna power your subs and is more than likely make you happy. It's pretty much the definition of "Bang for your Buck". However In most cases "Bang for your Buck" is defined (by those looking for this type of equipment) as something that's gonna put out power and not cost you a lot of money. This will always and forever result in shoddy equipment that has a higher rate of failure due to cheap amplifier components etc etc. Also, purchasing an amplifier that's being sold so cheaply means you're not gonna get anything in return if you ever want to sell it. If you're like me and a lot of other guys on this board you more than likely get a majority of your funds for new builds from selling off old equipment. So... Will it power your subs? definitely. Will it last you a long time? Probably not. Will it put out rated power? Nope. This is a proven fact. Think of Audiopipe as a cheap hooker. It'll do what you want at a fraction of the cost. Won't last long, and is probably gonna die young. TLDR: buy the amp if you want to. It'll power your subs. High chance of it dying on you, you're not getting rated power out of it. Can;t sell it for anything, gonna have to buy another amp balls to the wall if you ever upgrade. My Channel on YouTube.
