Just found my January 2000 copy of Car Stereo Review, Ken C. Pohlmann reviews the BP1200.1 and was pretty stoked on it. It did 1378 watts at 2 ohms, just for your info. Good luck.

Thanks Ross for that info. The BP1200.1 is on it's way and should be here sometime this week. I can't wait to hook er up to my Inhuman 15 and hear what this thing can do. the Inhuman looks likes it's gonna make the car a violent place to be! I can't wait! [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

P.S. I wanna say thanks to Johnny (JohnnyToronto) who took the time to meet me half way to give me the sub. Really nice guy and awesome to deal with, thanks man, it's much appreciated!

Not a problem, should be a really nice setup for you. Just curious, when you get the amp, can you do an update here and let us know if the price was close to what Etronics quoted you on the website? Not trying to be nosy, just curious. I know they have the Canadian Checkout, but I wonder if there are more fees on top. Thanks!

They are a good decent class d amp. The lack of a subsonic filter is the only reason why I would not buy it again if I had to.

Actually, I ended up going with Sounddomain as they beat the price and gave me the amp for 254.99US which I thought was a good deal. It came up to a total of 286 with shipping and all, I'm uncertain of any hidden fees yet. But with Etronics, they give you the final price, which includes everything, shipping, handling etc... before you buy it. I felt more secure buying from Sounddomain though based on there reputation.

For a better price most people get a quote from ikesound.com then get sounddomain.com to price match it. Sounddomain is a registered dealer so you will have a warrenty with them. Shipping is quick (like 3 days) to Canada.
Lot's of power for the price.
3 days? I only ordered from there once but it took almost a month!

Maybe it was just me, I always get the short end of the stick.
