whats the technical and audio differenct in the audiobahn HCT model amps and there Class D's. is the HCT less efficiant or does it distort?
also I was wandering how a 1500HCT would compare with an Audiopipe GD-6001.
these amps would be used for spl and possibly sql, but I have something else in mind for the sq part of my system I'll be putting together next summer. I just want to know how much unclipped bass I could get out of them. I don't wan't cone break up or the anoying ggghhhhhhkkk bass sound.

the difference in their HCT and their class-D lines is:

the class-d is a cromed turd
the HCT is an innefficient cromed turd

if you want loud bass w/ SQ, stay clear of most of audiobahns stuff. look at kicker, mtx, jl, alpine, jbl, memphis, re, dd, and stuff like that.

i'm not being mean man...i'm just trying to save you a huge headache down the road if you were to buy audiobahn.

Trevor, the HCT models do put out. I've tested them.
However, if your budget is $400 max, I've seen Orion 2500D for $499. You're not that far off.

well i think i might blow the subs with 2500w though. they are audioque LWs. 300w rms. but i was going to feed them much more. but 2500 is over 600 per sub... thats too much. thanks though.

and marshal. i was hoping for a little more than 1200w though. i feel the audioques can handle much more than 300w rms each as they are built like DD subs. thanks for the reply though.

what ohm load can you wire your subs to?

1ohm, 2ohm? (or what?)

well 4 LWs are SVC 4 ohm so that is a 1 ohm load. im trying to get ahold of zacdavis to possibly get a discount on DD subs so the impedance could change...

I actually had some fun with HCT. It gave tons of bass for a moderately priced amp. I know on some amps, the remote bass control doesn't do much, but on the HCT I tested, it really made the difference.
I know everyone hates the "flame" but I march to my own drum. :-)

I have an A2200HCT and I think that that thing puts out a heck of a lot of power. Just my .02 though.
