is there any possible way, unless something is wrong, that a MASSIVE 1500d amp could be louder than a Memphis 1100d amp, same subs in the same box in the same car.
if its not possible then what do you think is wrong with my brand new memphis i just got today, sounds a good amount cleaner though

mess around with your settings and gains.

Remember than in order to get a 3db increase you must effectively double your power. so you would need like 2200 watts to notice any change.

I would say if they both had true ratings power wise as you listed then it may be where you have the gains set as well as things like line voltage that each amp is recieving or capable to recieve, where your bass boost is centered by the manufacture as well as where it is set positionially. The internal components that make up the amplifier as a whole have an impact on performance and sonic characteristics that seem to differ from one amplifier to the next also.
