The newer stuff is still on the questionable side, they've gone down the tube lately and unless they truly come out with some great stuff like they used to, I'd steer clear. Haven't heard the subs, but I haven't heard anything really great about them from reviewers and such. As far as 6kw goes, you can use that amp if you want to, remember that thing will draw tons of current and you'd need HO alternators (note the plural tense) hooked in parallel to properly power that amp and other accessories at full draw. If I were putting 6kw on any type of subs, I'd probably get Eclipse Titanium Pros, 15" or 18", and put those on that amp. |

Gold Member Username: GlasswolfNorthWest, Michigan USA Post Number: 5447 Registered: Dec-03 | oh, the term btw is "wholly owned subsidiary," I believe. It's similar to Acer owning Apoen or DCM owning McIntosh Labs. they're owned by, but don't share manufacturing facilities with their parent company. |

Gold Member Username: Jonathan_fGA USA Post Number: 2570 Registered: May-04 | Yep, the US amps USA-6000 produces 6000W RMS bridged into 2 ohms. http://www.usamps.com/default.asp?View=products/inv/usa-6000.htm Not only that, the amp is Class A/B, unlike the Soundstream which is Class D, so less distortion, absolutely huge damping, etc. Not that with 6000W RMS you're worried about the SQ. Being an AB amp that's 6000W RMS, the current draw would be a b*tch to supply, though. |
