Anyone have any experience with the Zapco reference line. I'd be interested to hear what people have to say.

^ [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] how did yours die ??

The one I have was in my buddies truck running a pair of kicker comps... I thought he said 4ohms bridged and she just stopped working near the end of a 8hr session of running full tilt...

I took a looksie and couldn't find any fets that were oviously toasted and we decided it wasn't really worth replacing all of em....

I wonder what zapco would charge for a repair ?

I've heard they're good. I'd like to replace my two RF amps with a good 4 channel amp. I have 5 RF amps in the car and it drives me nuts!

What about Tru amps? I've heard some guys on this site say they are just as good.

Got 2 AG350's, very happy. No issues

At one point in time they weren't availble in Canada, as Gemsen (spelling) was not longer distributing them, so finding new equipment/accesories was tough.

I see they are now a number of dealers who carry them.

Specs show clean power, my ears tell me the same.
I am a believer in the symbilink, as I have heard RCA's and then Symbilink back to back. Makes a difference to me.

Bought em cuz a friend who used to compete in IASCA events introduced me to them.
