^that doesn't mean it's all junk. I dont have any experience with their products either and havent really heard any good or bad about them. If others haven't had any dependability issues, I'd say you're good to go. An amp is an amp. As long as stats are not total BS and you're getting what u pay for.

They were never really represented out this way by any retailers, it is understandable that people did not know what they were about. on diyma.com there are some guys that have run the latest batch of the Cadence amps, threads like this might help: http://www.diymobileaudio.com/forum/...-opinions.html

There is a member on there, Jason Paul that works for Cadence also.

No it does not mean it's all junk but as I stated, of the stuff I have seen, it was absolutely junk.

Cadence has been around for a long time always on the skirt of the industry. Either they have the worst promotions department in the industry or they are simply a B product. That's not bad, it just is what it is.

well im just saying each of those companys have the same marketing meathods , they dont advertise much to get their name out their so they put the money they should of spent into advertising into heavly producing product , audiobahn for example was cheap as hell but got alot of newbie ppls attention because of the chrome peices or the shiny baskets , i had a good chat with moe sab in portland about this when he was running his shop the most sold product he carried was audiobahn and that was the most profitible because it had such huge markup , so for the price of what theese companys charge for gear its not bad for the money when you run a sub that costs 150 bucks your buying this knowing its not bullet proof but at the same time its not that big of a deal if it blows up as its cheap to replace
