just keep the AB's what's the point is swapping them out when you're prolly getting the same power.

Hahaha, it's always a hassle selling and getting new gear anyways. Then you have to change all your plans, setup, adjust things and sometimes plan a whole new layout. I'm sure you already have it all planned out in your head the way things are going down :-)

RD Sucks. Everyonre on here knows it. most of the peeps in this thread are RD D!CK RIDERS. Cant believe They said stay with AB! lol -_-

now that i'm done pointing out the lies, i'll give my opinion. lol

if I had the money- RD less overall power draw
if money is tight- go with what ya got.

both are great amps..

"american Bass" -Owned by a raghead
RD- not owned by a rag head.

Sound Digital would be cool if you didn't have to wait a month to get your amp, pay shipping form Brazil, and if anything happen to amp have to send it back to Brazil and wait a long time.

right now, until they get based into USA it takes a lil time gettin it, i talked to SounDigital, im kinda half and half on whether i would run there products, i dont 100% agree with the design but seems to be working, i cant wait to meet up with scott and check em out in person

and yes rob i have pretty much everything laid out in my head, and plus when people see 4 of them btches in the truck they like dammmmmmm haha

kevin u are right, maybe if you and steve hooked me up it would help my decision, as i can get 2 AB500.1's cheaper than what Steve told me on the RD D13...

also mark, id need to test the D13... make sure i can at least get the same fusing as i am with the AB 500.1's

im gettin AB500.1 full burp at 1 ohm on 60 amps of fusing

Would more amps do better for your impedence rise?
A lot of money lost when switching equipment.

Crowds love to see tons of equipment :-)

Did you get my emails btw?
