Just saying that yes they may sound good for now, but for long haul abuse and power handling I will bet on my XTR Pro's any day of the week to handle the rated power all day long and not break a sweat. DOn't get me wrong, I have heard many cars with cheaper setups that sounded really good, hell every major show you go to, somebody like Jensen is there with a demo car that is hooked up with their stuff and sounds clean as hell. But like they say, you get what you pay for you know. If you buy a 1000 watt amp for 200 bucks, do you really trust that it is going to give you that full 1000 watts? Or would you rather buy a Pheonix Gold, Orion, Punch or other amp that you know will give you the rated power it claims? Just a matter of preference I guess. Like I said, you can make the cheaper stuff sound good, but if you abuse it for to long it's gonna give out alot faster than the higher priced goodies.
