Funny you should mention those, as I just posted those in your other thread...
The Titans are Hifonics entry level amps and the Zeus are the step up (slightly better quality).

If you're planning on stepping up to one of them vs. the other lesser model Titan you listed then you may want to contact KnuKoncepts and see if you can upgrade from the 8 gauge to the 4.

Do not skimp on wire... you can blow up your amps or burn your car to the ground... wire is one of the most important and often overlooked issues in an install. My mbquart has 4 gage connections and i ran 0.
