Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 5156 Registered: Jul-06 | ^^^^ X2 Now if that were an SAZ sundown it would be a different story. I'd say those would be on the same level of quality. |

Platinum Member Username: Chaunb3400Huntsville, Alabama U.S. Post Number: 13473 Registered: Jul-05 | Really I would still have a hard time believing the Saz would be on the same level as the Md's Even though the Saz are very overbuilt..I would rather have a IA20.1 over a Saz1500 |

Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 5157 Registered: Jul-06 | IA 20.1 is also an overbuilt very good amp. If I had a choice between 20.1 and SAZ 1500d I'd get whichever cost less....... Above all I'd take the US Amps for a daily application. But, the two amps mentioned above can be run at extremely low impedances for comps. |

Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 5160 Registered: Jul-06 | Yes MD-2 and MD-3 are underrated. The MD-1 does about 900w. They are working on an updated version of it that will be underrated like the others. |
|
Gold Member Username: 420alldaylongPost Number: 3109 Registered: Sep-06 | Yes^^^^^but I was told 1000RMS for the MD-1D. |
|

Platinum Member Username: Chaunb3400Huntsville, Alabama U.S. Post Number: 13476 Registered: Jul-05 | Not ragging on the amps...I have heard great things about them...just wondering why everybody has been selling them?? |
|
Gold Member Username: 04redmach1Lagrange, GA USA Post Number: 1592 Registered: Mar-06 | IMO, I would only say US Amps> Sundown if you are talking about the AX series. Other than that I would say Sundown> US Amps. Chauncey: nothing wrong with them, I know alot of guys trying to sell the 1500D's to grab the 3000D's. I havn't had a single amp back. Kevin |

Gold Member Username: BasssquaredKansas Post Number: 1815 Registered: Nov-06 | i'm gonna be running my MD 2D on a stock alt so what do it ;) your gonna slowly kill your alt but its worth it ;) |
|
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 5169 Registered: Jul-06 | Kevin: The new merlins pretty much are what the AX were |
|
Silver Member Username: DenimWww.TeamSSAudio.com, MD Post Number: 546 Registered: Nov-06 | The new Merlins we so good that they killed off AX models. The Sundown amps are very good also. Jacobs customer service is one of the best. Honestly, money not being mentioned it is a win win. SSA is an authorized dealer for both. |
|
Silver Member Username: Pbplayer05Carroll, Iowa Post Number: 186 Registered: May-07 | would i beable to turn the gain down and run the md2d without ruining my alt or would it still kill it |
|
Silver Member Username: DenimWww.TeamSSAudio.com, MD Post Number: 550 Registered: Nov-06 | You should be good, just make sure connections are clean and your are not over driving the equipment. |
|
Silver Member Username: Pbplayer05Carroll, Iowa Post Number: 189 Registered: May-07 | well it will be on 2 bms for now and soo hoping to get one of the new rd elites or 2 of the new audioque sdc2.5 |

Silver Member Username: MendonmafiaUSA Post Number: 471 Registered: Aug-06 | is there 2 companys named us amps? i just looked on ebay at some amps and they are very inexpensive. the xt4000d is only 250 shipped. and will do 1500 rms @ 1 ohm!!!!! that seems too good to be true. thats about the same as hifonics in terms of watts per doller. |
|
Silver Member Username: Pbplayer05Carroll, Iowa Post Number: 191 Registered: May-07 | thats the same company and i think those are also built in a different build house not in the us and they are overated |
