Hi, I know there's kinda a lot of hate for audiobahn, but I've heard from some sources (including the Brands ratings list here) that their amplifiers were decent. I'm thinking of getting an Audiobahn 1300HCT and was wondering if anyone has any experience with this amp. I can get one of these locally for about 120 along with a hifonics bx1500 also for 120.

How would this audiobahn amp compare to the hifonics? Will the audiobahn do its rated 1200 RMS? I understand that the hifonics is a bit underrated and does around 1300 RMS, but I was wondering which of these amps is better overall.

Thanks!

anyone?

Life is about calculated risks. You wouldn't buy fruit from a grocery store that's been known to have substandard fruit, when there's another store next to it that always seems to have excellent fruit, would you? You'll shop at the better store. Sure you might get lucky at the other place, but are you going to take that chance?

Look at how much stuff you've seen online bashing or boosting either brand ... weigh them against each other ... and take a calculated risk.

I'll give you a hint ... Audiobahn sucks. The rest is up to you.

Good luck.
