here's the problem...

do i go with a second hand
audison lrx 1.400 ($500)
soundstream sma1-700D (michaelangelo) ($450)
alpine mrd-m650 ($420)

or a brand new soundstream sma1-700D ($490)


decisions, decisions.
thats why i need u people. at the moment, i'm sorta leaning towards the audison. but the new ss comes with warranty....

I'd chose the audison. I'm using the VRx which I got second hand loaded down to 2ohms, sounds good, is exceptionally grunty for driving a sub, and sounds fantastic doing it. Had no troubles with it and it gets run every day for at least half an hour or so. Weekdays I think it gets run for about an hour to two a day. I imagine that the LRx would be similar.

Audison... new one

Alpine.

Haha, only because he's going to by it off me.

Ant

other opinions, please?

Ive got the LRx1.400, and I love it. More then enough power for my usage, beautiful sound quality, good looks and a nice small amp. For that price, I honestly dont think it can be beaten.

I'd go with the Audison, and especially with the price diff between the other 3 amps are not much. I know U could get a brand new soundstream sma1-700D for $490 ($10 less) but if the audison is in a perferct working condition then its a good price for it

If the choice were my own, I'd go with the Audison out of those three options. Wouldn't even have to think about it really
