^I don't really know what you're trying to say there.........however that Profile amp is a decent amp, especially for the price. I had one running my 15" CompVR a while back and it did the job well. If you're on a tight budget it's definitely an amp to consider.

i ordered one of them amps for a friend to power his 12" RF Punch HX2, it did ok.. but its overrated i personally think.. good reliable amp none the less.. but not so much close to the rms it says it does.. but it is a good budget amp..

Actually the 1000 prolly does approx. 400 Bill...seeing as it's rated for [email]
[email protected][/email] that is.
Even if it does do an actual 500W RMS or more..that doesnt necessarily make it a great amp...trust me build quality is not high with those profile amps...you can tell just by lookin at them..however, it never gave me problems..just make sure you play the amp somewhat within its limits or you can't expect it to last you too long for $100.
Bill I also agree with you on Power Acoustik amps....i've known so many damn people that had those Gothik series amps and not one of them had a problem with them. They also got some decently high powered strappable amps for the "competitor on a budget" haha. They have been benched at damn near their rated power I believe and for the price you really can't beat em.

yeah, i have the PA Ov2-400 2 channel amp, well its in the house, it got replaced by my jbl 180.2, but it did alright for the job, id only use it to power speakers/components though.. it never gave me any problems, although it did get hot, but that was after an hour or so at moderate high volumes.

yea your right dave i was thinking it was 1 ohm stable. the gothic amps are insane. i know a few guys strapping a pair of the 3000s at 18vs and getting over 6kw's

yeah, i plan on gettin a 15'' comp vr and i have a tight budget. i was just tryin to find a good amp that puts out 500w RMS. the eclipse xa1000 was my choice but it's about $80-100 more
