Silver Member Username: KapreseWalstonburg, NC USA Post Number: 545 Registered: Mar-07 | This guy in my neighborhood is selling his amp it is a SPL 1200w amp. My question is are SPL amps a good name brand and are they underrated or overrated ? Also would this amp out perform a PA 1600w amp Gothic Series ? |

Silver Member Username: ZacdavisBeloit, Wi Post Number: 721 Registered: Dec-03 | Lol, SPL is Power acoustik, same manufacturer same parts same assembly line. Kole is also Power Acoustik. All three are great values. For dollar per watt they're hard to beat. I would recommend buying these brands with warranty because they are more likely to have problems. |
