    I've never heard them, but I've heard nothing but good things about them. I'm curious as well.

    You might want to check over at www.elitecaraudio.com - everyone on the forums seems to think they are excellent amps for the price.

    US Acoustics are fairly clean, respectable power, fairly rugged amps, especially for the price.


    However, they've got a bit of a "issue" in that their supposed power output is usually never seen... You've got an amp that does 150 x 4 at 2 ohms = 600 watts and only draws 20 amps of current (has 20 - 25A fuse) ??

    doesn't add up...

    don't look for them to do amazing wattage numbers, but as long as you keep that in mind, you cant really go wrong buying one.

    I had one years ago. A 75x2. Bridged claimed 200 watts. Its an OK amp. fairly small in size, Doesnt get too hot. Tried running full range speakers, Very noisey. Did better job at driving a mono bandpass sub.
