Bronze Member Username: SymplestilesStockton, CA Usa Post Number: 72 Registered: Aug-04 | if i were you, id ask for a full refund and buy the JBL from this site http://www.audiodiscounters.com/product_id/267.html $240 shipped and they have awesome service, recieved my amp in 5 days. i havent heard of ma audio so i wouldnt know how reliable they are, but i cant imagine him giving you an amp thats alot better..JBL is a pretty damn good amp for the price, and just because he said it has twice as much power doesnt mean it really does. |
New member Username: Erik123456Arlington, Tx Post Number: 3 Registered: Aug-04 | damn, atleast i can return it for a full refund or swap price wise it actually seems like a good deal...220 for an amp that sells online for 259-299 anyone else have some insight, i just need it to do 300 W each to 2 12's i dont need it to do 1200 W |
Silver Member Username: JayjLouisiana USA Post Number: 455 Registered: May-04 | Dude if not the JBL then I would do a Kicker KX600.1. That crappy MA Audio is VERY overrated you will prolly get about 300watts RMS total. Also heres a list that should help you with amp choices next time. Good Luck with your new amp. http://p079.ezboard.com/fcaraudiotalkfrm27.showMessage?topicID=48.topic |
New member Username: Erik123456Arlington, Tx Post Number: 4 Registered: Aug-04 | just called the owner who is a cool guy, he said MA doesnt have the best rep but the amp will put out more power than the JBL by far and if im not happy he will switch it out for a kicker kx600.1, so i hope it will be all good |
New member Username: Erik123456Arlington, Tx Post Number: 5 Registered: Aug-04 | Audiobahn Autotek Blitz Boss JBL JL Audio Kenwood LANZAR MA Audio Precision Power Pyramid Rockford Fosgate Ultralinear Visonik he carries these amps and kicker would any of these be able to push 2 12" SVC VMax subs at 300 W for a good price and an amp that doesnt suck |
yougotscrewedbigtime Unregistered guest | LMAO that amp will not even come close to pushing out 600 watts you got screwed big time. I would get my money back and shop somewhere else. Even IF it does push the subs it will not last you long. |

Silver Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 186 Registered: Jun-04 | seems like that guy carries low end stuff id get my money back and move on and look on ebay or something |
New member Username: Erik123456Arlington, Tx Post Number: 7 Registered: Aug-04 | would any of the jl amps work well? what do you guys recommend instead? |
Silver Member Username: JayjLouisiana USA Post Number: 461 Registered: May-04 | If not the JBL 600.1 then the Kicker KX600.1. The Kicker will be a lot better anyway. Good Luck |
Silver Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 189 Registered: Jun-04 | ive actually heard ma audio and one of their draw backs is pop noise on start up plus they are over rated power wise id skip that amp and as far as the jl audio you wont get a good model for that price and it will be less power |
Silver Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 190 Registered: Jun-04 | hands down i agree kicker 600.1 is your best bet go with that youll be pleased |
Gold Member Username: Jonathan_fGA USA Post Number: 1331 Registered: May-04 | JBL JL Audio Precision Power Rockford Fosgate Only decent brands on that list, with PPI being the questionable one at times(not what they used to be). Kicker 600.1 is the best amp you can get in this situation, JBL 600.1 is second(JL would be best, but out of the price range). That MA audio amp is overrated, the SQ will be horrible compared to a good amp, plus the amp is unreliable and poorly built. |
