sure it is, you could probably get a 1000 watt amp a little cheaper used but it's still a decent deal. If you really wanna know if it's a good deal ask them how much a brand new one costs.

Expand on that a little VanCity, what brands, pricing, location etc. I'm sure the OP would like more info.


QuestionMark: Make sure you contact MR2NR on this forum, he is closing shop and has some great deals.

That is a good price especially with warranty (I would ask if this is a demo or a closeout item)

now is it the right amp? it is a 400 watt amp a 4 ohms, 700 watt amp at 2 ohms, and a 1000 watt amp at 1 ohm

I had a MB quart dsc 2000.1d and it was a beast. wired it down to .5 and ran it daily for month, it never got hot at all.

If op dosnt mind buying from egay, an MB Quart 1000.1d or even 1500.1d can be had for 300$ im sure there must be a dealer somewhere in canada.

audiopipe also make nice budget amps.... ap1500d would be a nice amp for half to price of that kaption.


OP before making any buy, look around, and do some serious reading on these forums

I have one of those in my car beating on a DD1510. It's pretty amazing.

It was that amp, but was upgraded at Kaption to the 1300 watt board.
