The new model, is it any good? Does it do rated power? I heard that since they were bought out they have went downhill. I am trying to power a 15" HD3. I am looking at this amp and also the PA 3000DB and Concept CD-2410. What would be my best bet. I have never dealt with any of these companies. Just want some opinions.

Autotek amps will do rated power.... and probably then some. Everyone thinks Maxxsonics products went down hill. Sure a few years back things weren't all that great.... amps being over rated, but things have turned around in these last 2 years or so. All the products produced by Maxxsonics are great quality and they do what they say they do. I would not hesitate to buy the autotek.... wait a minute, i didnt hesitate, i did buy one! But, I would take it over the power acoustik any day, and i cant really comment on the concept, i dont know too much about their amps.

Ur talking about to completely different classes of amps the PA and the concept are both cheap run of the mill amps the autotek is a high quality great preforming peace. i have tested the autotek to do over rated power. on 14.4v's although not recommended the amp can do .5 daily as well (which is where i used mine until i sold it. To the guy above. ive ran autotek 2000s 1000s and there 4000s and love them all they are all incredibly efficent and are very clean these amps are rated at >.01 percent THD where normal class d amps are >.1.

about them going down hill please read the following.

about 5 years ago a company called API purchased the autotek name from zed audio and began manufacturing the amps they outsorced to china and used shitty grade components. API went out of buisness and the autotek name was sold to maxxsonics the parent company of Hifonics, maxxsonics has sense purchased Crunch and MBquart. alot of these products got a bad name from the predecessor company api or rockford. over the past few years maxxsonics has completely redesigned and rebuilt/tooled all of the amps. all maxxsonics products will do rated power. however thats very subjective and if you wish i will go into further details about power

i would like to add that, the Power Acoustik A3000DB is a solid amp, and from what ive read/been told, but i think it would do a good 1600rms or more at 1ohm.. although i do not have any personal experience with it, ive talked to numerous people who have ran them, a couple using 3 or more in their setups... oh, and i just bought one last night, so i will give my personal experience with it.

im a dealer for both autotek and power acoustik so that being said.....they are in a different class for sure....the autotek is going to give more than its rated power and the PA stuff will give you good solid power but you need to read the manual to get a better idea of what you are getting....consequnetly we are building a comp. vehicle with 5 PA amps in it....

The PA amps are decent amps they arent the most reliable amps but do do a decent amount of power for the price. there current hungrey as hell so be prepared for that.

I'm running an Orion 2500d (Previously to an RE XXX @ 1 ohm, now to a DIYMA @ 4 ohms). Has been nothing but good to me.

we are going to strap 2 smaller PA amps to each sub to try and alleviate some of that.....it either works or it doesnt becasue you need power to make power......
