Boss ph5000d :( ... :)

okay yeah I know the talk about the Boss company, but for 50 bucks? I think its worth a try, what do you guys think?

Boss Audio PH5000D 5000W Class D Monoblock Car Amplifier with Remote Subwoofer Level Control at Onlinecarstereo.com

its used one, but ill test it before I buy it to make sure its not blown out, anybody have experience with this one, I been reading its not 1 ohm stable and does not take 0 gauge

do it right the first time , purchase a decent amp that you wont have to take out of your vehicle down the road

if you want something affordable check out the shark audio 2500 , its only 129 and will do 1800 watts

I was looking at this one http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/p_26769_Planet_Audio_AC50001D.aspx

I have read mixed reviews about planet audio, and I dont expect it to put 3500 at 1 ohm, hoping for 2000,
