Hmmm , i dont know, tons of guys are always bashing Audiobahn but then again Tons of guys also bash Hifonics.. i havnt seen many hifonics in action nor have i witnessed any bench test on them but most say they put out 70 percent of there rated output, but i have had a Audiobahn amp tested an it put out 2300rms which was only 100rms less then its rated output an isaac has bench tested the A8000t him self an he said it did the 800 rms it claimed but the hifonics is around 250 an the audiobahn is around 400 so i would say if you have 400 just get a kicker kx1200.1 which is rated at 1200X1 rms at 1 ohm but it actually exceeds its rated output so you would actually be able to get around 1400 rms out of that sucker an its a much more reputable name brand an they are very very reliable
