our shop picked up this line about 4 months ago and we have had very good success with it...... hey you can get a pyramid that will give ya gigawatt .... or so they say lol. anyhoo this is a proven piece of equipment and is not comparable to the sales driven products that most people hear about

I would second and third the 4000D from crossfire. Built like a rock, underrated, and not to hard on the electrical (at least for a amp that big). If you want 2k, go with the 2000D. Cannot go wrong with crossfire...

these things will go down lower than Paris Hilton too.

Find them slightly used for like $600 american
I don't think I've seen one for any less than $800 american used, but they do look like pretty nice amps. A word to the wise... if anyone sees one for $600, DON'T BUY IT!

Even the amp I suggested comes with a 300 amp fuse......!!

As for value for the money........comparing Hertz amps to a Crossfire (nothing wrong with them.....but just not in this league).......is like comparing an F1 car to a stock civic......

theres power....and then theres.....POWER.

2300 Watts RMS is a shi* load of power for ANY 2 subwoofers.....regardless of brand or power handling.

Again.....can the guys electrical system keep up.....thats the big question.
Anything over ~1000wrms is going to require a beefed up electrical anyway. There's no avoiding it. He'll have to spend alot of $$ just to run a 2300wrms amp as well.
And he's running DD3500s, not SQ subs (which seems to be all I could find on the Hertz website), and the CF 4k puts out very clean power. When it comes to SPL, 4000wrms kicks the crap out of 2300wrms, regardless if it comes from a "civic" amp and not an F1 amp. If it was regulated like a Zapco amp, then I could see some SPL value (for street competitors). If not, there are alot stronger amps out there for the same money.
I wouldn't call 2300wrms a **** load of power for just any 2 subs. It depends on the sub and the install. My DD9515s would laugh at 1150wrms each. They'd still be laughing at 2300wrms each daily. It all depends on what you're running, and how loud you want it to be.
