Mr Marco: Yes I saw that link when it first came about but it seemed a bit too good to be true.
They are out of stock now but I will check to see if the others got their's yet just so I can kick myself aferwards.

The ZP is an excellent amp but the ZR has more power, sounds just as good, and is less finicky.
That's my reasoning.

</font>[/QUOTE]isn't your "big 8" dual 2ohm coils? that amp is only 2ohm stable..... if your sub is dual 2's then you can only wire it for a 1ohm or 4ohm load...

And you would want to stay at 4ohm instead of 1ohm so why not get the 750.2 if you really want the Zapco?

Or get your AG750 fixed.

I'll wire the sub in series to get a 4ohm load, which will give me 800watts . No ????
The amp will run cool as well !

But you are buying more amp then you need. Why spend the extra cash if you're not going to use it?

Rob, it seems that everyday your seeking CCA's approval on a certain amp. A number of amps have all been suggested which in my opinion would fit the bill. In addition, you already have a quality amp that is being repaired. Just use the Zapco...It has plenty power more than you'll ever need. It also matches the AG350...Although it maybe a cosmetic thing, I personally like keeping all the amp from a single manufacture.

What I would concentrate on is your install, more specifically your power sources. I don't believe that the problems that your experiencing revolve around the amps you've used (including the Audison).

Work with the Zapco and stop wasting bandwidth with "Is this amp good or bad?"...
