There is a seemingly" unknown law in car audio in this section.

It is called "get what you paid for".

That said, if your POS 200 dollar 1000w amp does not "push" your subs, then you didn not get 1000w for your 200 dollars....*gasp*.

Nothing is free in this world son. Especially in car audio. You get just wtf you pay for.

Noone said it was gonna be cheap. If you have no cash, no job? Find another hobby. This one will break the average K-Mart budget faster than you can say "bankruptcy".

Dont expect us to have any sympathy for you if you spent 50 dollar on a Lagacy/Boss/Power Acousuck/ amp and grenaded you sub trying to get it to do what it advertised.

Touche....

I wouldnt expect anyone to not purchase from eD for the reasons i do not. For as many ppl as eD screwed over, they would never see a dime of my money.

Yes, retail.

yeah the only thing id ever trust from them is amps if heard nothing but good things about the amps and as i read in one of those threads the customer service is good so nine.1 is still a great deal.

also hifisoundconnection.com sells kicker kx1200.1 for i think 350 shipped full warrentee from kicker becasue they are authorized dealer. and that amp can be ran at .5ohm daily and at 1ohm it puts out 1400-1500rms

Cutomer service responses vary greatly in the threads. Regardless of where he is now, or going, its where he's been that i find issue with.

amps = avionixx? Which is another story in itself?

*shrugs*

I find my deals elsewhere.

my x1001 retails for 1599$, even online, brand new. It puts out 1000wrms@2ohms @12v... you gonna tell me you get what you pay for in this case? I believe this is one of the most expensive 1000wRMS amps on the market, and the quality is beyond any I've seen, but still...$1599?!

Could have gotten you a 4kw for that.....with more than a few bucks left over.

IMO, if your on the net daily, and you still pay retail, there is something wrong with you. Sorry you didnt do your homework? I make friends easily (cept here...ha)and even locally i got my first xtant for around 5 bills. (2002)

oh, and I was going to pay my buddy 300 for it.. but he gave me one h3ll of a deal because he was in a good mood when I went to pay him what I owed (200 after I gave him 100 a few days earlier). He just got a new truck and that was a plus for me!

what you must do is ASK before buying, you might get a good deal, but you Must know brands, product and many other things...

Simon....not sure what you said to get an item below dealer cost, but it must have worked.

You could ask me for the same price until you were blue in the face on that amp......and i would still have to circumvent the profanity filters to type out my responses.
