I just sold my old 1000BD that was have a 12v switch problem on ebay. only went for 140 bucks, but considering I got 7+ years of use out of it I can't complain.

I still have my A404.2 that's a good 15 years old and it's still running strong in my subie now, running my front stage at 2x200 watts.

The Sedona's were nice too, but I never owned any.

BryanH · 11-04-2009, 03:07 PM

PPI art series were nice.

RF punch.

Sony ES when they still looked like a brick...not the red ones. Amazing sound and under appreciated.

bheinen74 · 11-04-2009, 03:14 PM

kicker DX700 running one Kicker 12"
the DX700 is a 700watt RMS, but underrated. Its nearly 1100 watts rms into 2ohm load
1100w to one speaker is insane.

I still have my A200.2 that's running my fronts also. Love it! I've ran it in about 5 different setups powering subs or components and it still goes like a champ!
