I bought this amp to replace my JL HD600/4 and HD750/1. I had the HD600/4 bridged for the SPZ60's running passive in coax mode. Now, all I need is this one amp to run everything. It sounds just as good and I only need one amp now and it is a lot less money. Also, I have dual SRX10's in the back which I run bridged off the rear channels of this amp. This is a very heavy amp and is rated at 1400 watts so it needs a 150 amp fuse. I listen to rock and death metal and I would highly recommend this amp. The only thing about this amp are the controls are on the bottom, my JL amp controls were on the top. They were easier to get to than this amp. Just set the controls before installing. Hope this info helps someone out there who is on the edge about buying this amp.
