dude its 425 watts a channel and its 2 channel and thats @ 2 ohmsin my opinion you get what you pay for, and honestly most people would say that jl is the best are you retarded for paying 800-900 dollars for a 1000 watt amp, i think not. The amp i am talking about is also an underrated amp. but then again we all have our own preferences to what sq we think is best and this mine. Many people think that the subwoofer is what creates the best sound. if you thinkt hat you are totally wrong. I heard a song explod and a jl amp, the distortion of the xplod was horrible, so like i said the quality of the amp, its compnents, and the reliablibity of the amp is a thing to consider. the choice is up to you, on what quality you want, rf is one of the top brands in quality if not the 3rd best, and i have never heard anything bad about their amps. theiur subs ont he other hand can be very sloppy at times. used amps and refurbished amps are a way to go also, nothign wrong with buying a used amp. in my mind, if it was taken care of and not abused it should about as well as the day you bought it, and its cheaper so i would look for a bargain like that. You can be a used amp rf amp for the price of a new amp from another company with more power, and the sound may not be the same, so once again i impress upon you that its your choice, if you want feel free to IM me on aim SuBZeRo69069 or StealthGlowI30
