American Bass or US Amps

The Amps:

AB VFL 200.1

US Amps AX3000DE

First off let me say the point of this thread is for input on current and how efficient one is over the other. I'm running what I have in my sig, and I'm running both at 2 ohms which is about 2000rms each amp, so keep that in mind too. I'm doing this until I get some new subs and of course upgrades later on down the road.

200 is a very powerful amp and very efficient but i cant say anything about the AX3000

also the 200 can take low loads daily and produce alot of power on 12 volt systems

id go with the AB im not impressed at all with US Amps newer stuff.

although the 3000de is a good amp

Another AB supporter. Any other inputs?

you have a lot more options with the AB for whenever you change subs

you can run that thing .5 daily no problem

down to .25 for burps

Do you know a site that gives the length on the ab 200.1? I tried roe and American bass.

That's pretty small to push so much power. I believe the zx2500 is like 25 inches or something like that. Well that's good if it pushes so much with just 20 inches across

AB FTW, the new US amps is so so from what i hear... they seem like more budget internals and just overall marketing for budget amps...

I like my '06 Us Amps MD3D, the older Us stuff is better then now, but I have always wanted to play with some of AB's stuff too.

I would go with AB, but i might be a little biased since i got a vfl 500.1 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

haven't had tried US Amps before, but i know my AB amp is running great @ .5 ohm daily.

So does your 150.1 give you any trouble?
