I think MA audio is a pretty good brand, but I do think that they overrate their products, at least when compared to Kicker, RF, JL, etc. They can pound though. I have a friend with an MA Audio "3000" watt amp (its about 2 feet long) and he has it hooked up to two Kicker L7 12's and it really really really thumps. It hits extremely hard to say the least, but he used to have a smaller MA Audio amp like that one and he pushed two Infinity 12's with it. He blew both of the twelves before he blew the amp, but he was kinda hard on his stuff too. A good rule of thumb is to remember that you get what you pay for. I think that amp is comparable to to a 500-600 watt amp of the high quality companies, but I think that it will definitely get the job done.

that deal from sound electronix seems to be good bump for the buck. But would it be better to spend a little more and get brand name amp and one 10?
