The title pretty much says it all. Looking for CP'ers who have had or heard both and your impressions. I use the 5503 to also run my center but am looking for 2-channel differences for my SDA SRS 2s.

Thanks in advance for your insights.

    I've got both and will be selling both in the near future. Both have TONS of power, run hot and don't disappoint . . . plenty of reserve (peak) power.
    Never any clipping from either model (and they have been pushed). Too bad you're not in closer proximity

    Get a 5802 for the fronts L/R and relegate the 5503 to the rears and center/sub, just a thought . .
