Is there a catch?

OK I was looking on ebay because I was bored and I found a 2-channel amplifier that has more power output than a more expensive mono channel amplifier, check it out:

If they are both brand new and in the box then both are great deals. Both amps retail for 300 on crutchfield...i love ebay, anyway, since i really dont feel like gettin into the details of the differences in power, go with the A8002T its more versitile and in your case cheaper.

I hate Audiobahn, had a complete Audiobahn system once, never again.

What problems were u having with them since I'm wondering whether I should get an Audiobahn woofer or an Infinity

How much do you want to spend? There are much better woofers for cheaper yet they arne't the evryday brand you see in the stores.

I'm all ears man, whatever information you got for me on quality products, I'm listening. I'm hoping to spend only $300-320 for an amp and 2 12" woofers shipped. I have a friend that has Infinity subs and they're pretty nice and cheap so I thought I'd go that route but if something's just as good if not better and cheaper, I'll consider that route too.

They sound like absolute shit is the problem I had with them. Then a moron friend of mine hooked up a third sub, that I had sold to him earlier, and the amp fried. When you give an amp an ohm load it can't handle it will start clipping the signal. In most cases with quality products, the amp will be able to handle the load for a little while and your subs voicecoil will go before the amp does. Not in Audiobahn's case.
