Finally getting rid of my KAC-8704D and 8705D and buying a 1500.1D.
I'm pretty sure I'm getting the Audiopipe, but figured I'd find out what you guys think first.

If your choice is other, be sure to specify and make sure it fits into the price range of the above listed. ($150-200)

Thanks guys.

If you don't mind, what is your reasoning for this?

I'll be deciding in about 3 days by the way, so I'd like to get as much input as possible from you guys.

Also, I don't know why I typed 870xD they're obviously 810xD's.

hifonics have never failed me even at .5 ohms (not saying you should run it there) but and my buddy has had his hifonics 5k goliath for 3 years and its still bangin hard. but honestly for a few bucks more get an aq1200 itll blow all of em away.

I know about AQ's quality, I just really can't fit over $200 in the budget right now.

I figured you would be 100% Audiopipe, since you're not I'm going to look more into the HiFonics since people seem to pick that more often.

Voting other and not posting doesn't help a whole lot.

my buddy had a hifonics on 2 alpine type R's and it was fucking retarded loud for 2 12's

hifonics make very good bang for your buck (although lacking power around 30-35hz)

Well fuck. See, that's what I'm trying to get away from with these Kenwoods. Is it my budget?
If there isn't an amp in my budget that can push 30-35 hz I guess I'll just have to deal.
