Class D
I have a single kicker 12 L7 and I want a new amp.The one I have now puts out 946 at 2 ohm but it is an AB amp.Where I live in Fresno my current amp sucks in the summer time,it likes to overheat when its above 90 degrees.I think a cladd D would help plus my old Rockford amp that blew out never overheated.What is a good brand.I am thinking about the new Rockford Fosgate T10001bd.I hear their underrated and they usually put out a couple hundred more watts than rated.What do you think?

A/B amps aren't bad amps, they're just increibly inefficient, for the most part. What made you want a digital amp? Just curious.
BTW, I have a JL 500/1 if you're interested.

Go Orion,they are the only amps i use and you wont have the over heating problems,in my old vic i had an Orion Extreme 800 pushing 3 12in Kicker CVR's even during the hot *** summer never had a problem.oh and they are very consistant
Class D Amps aren't horrible either. They're generally smaller in size, they're more efficient, and in your case which is what you want, they run cooler. However, Orions are definitely good amps and I would definitely look into them.
sorry for OT but whats the benefits of an class A amp compared to any other mono amp? (assuming its gonna be hooked up to sub woofers only).
is Orion a top quality brand? i never heard of it prob because they dont advertise their products much? =\

Rep Power: 317 Definitely Hifonics Brutus BX1500D. They pack a BIG punch and can be used to power any subs. The newer series came out the BX2200 (2200x1) and the 1800 (1800x1). Hifonics baby! 
is the Hifonics BX605 considered as class D or a/b ?
www.ikesound.com refers it to a/b while other places refer it as class d design or w.e. what gives?

http://ikesound.com/product-product_id/2822 <--- A/B
(OT: any with expierence thru www.ikesound.com ?)
