1) Audiobahn sucks ass, as has been posted here many times.

2) PG is OK, there are others as good and some better, if you get a good deal then OK. Don't think it's incredible, but it's OK.

3) Calm down on the waiting less than an hour for the answer, grasshopper.

shop used is probbly the best idea if you wanna spend 300-375 for a 500-1000watt amp...there might be an audiobahn amp out there that's compatible fer that price... no clue tho... $350 could buy you a decent used amp for sure tho

yeah man, if u want a powerful amp on that budget id look used as well. But if you are gonna build a solid system in the future, might as well put down a good amount for a good amp right now, it'll save you money in the longrun.

nice thing about the X6001 is that its variable voltage
you'll get the same amount of power running a 2ohm sub as a 4 ohm sub

where as other amps run at different rates at difference impediances.

AWSOME AMP. We sell it at our store

Very good idea.... PG is a good quality brand and the Audiobaun sub you have is one of the higher end audiobauns.. you'll have a good match there..

Enjoy..
