Zapco is one of those brands that other brands hate to compete with. Understated AND underrated. ;) Personally, I'm running two Dimaond Audio D5 amps in the STi, and I LOVE them. Higher than normal power and sound quality, and only slightly higher than normal pricing. :P

i used to have Linear Power after my Linear Power/old school Harmon Kardon amps. I always like Xtant since they came out and Phoenix Gold. How are Kicker amps? I tend to prefer a single multichannel amp rather than multiple ams just for simplification. No need to install 2 amps if 1 will do yhe trick & take up less room.

Personally I like JBL.....I love there Class D models....very underated Zapco amps any good...? Well they only won a couple of world championships here and there....i guess they are good.... :lol: Phoenix Gold....another good brand Rockford Fosgate....good brand Xtant.....really nice amps...pricey JL Audio....nuff said...but pricey I would say in general most of the better amps are US made with the Japanese amps coming in a close seecond...

Zapco is a good brand. Too bad most of their powerful amps are freakin huge. I really love my Earthquake amp. Clean and powerful A/B amp. And my Rockford Fosgate Punch 500S has met my needs. I am eager to listen to the new rockford line of amps soon.

[quote name='Drift Monkey']I like Memphis Audio amps, great power/clarity for a great price. For subs, Memphis' sub lines look nice, but I have no experince with them. JL is usually what I go with. W7 anyone? :D[/quote] :roll: Maybe I'm just too much of an audiophile but the W7 has not impressed me very much for the price of it.

So what do you guys think of Kraco? HAHAHAHAHAH! J/K! I'm partial for Fosgate. I'm old school. Build your own box, wrap your own sub crossovers, etc. I looked at the W7 and barely recognized it as a speaker. What's the logic behind that thing? $300 for ONE 8" woofer? Holy cow! :o

I think I'm going to try to find an early nineties rockford punch 150 amp (anyone else know about these?) or a new zapco to push a single alumapro alchemy 10" dual voice coil in a custom SEALED enclosure. For highs and mids, I'll probably use a Zapco, with a Focal component set.

So what are you guys using to build boxes these days? I used 3/4 or 1" MDF to build boxes depending upon the speaker size. My last build (circa '96) was a custom box to fill the trunk of my Miata with a pair of 10" Punch subs and a Punch 40.2 amp. It's enough to keep the bass going with the top down and the volume up.

I like the old school Fosgate amps. Those were the good days.. Anyway, I still use MDF for my enclosures, but I'll probably use some fiberglass too. It all depends on what I decide I want to do for a system in the Legacy. Easton, that sounds like a nice setup. :D
