They aren't the same amp they may use the same board but I doubt they use the same components. The build house I believe is Zenon which also makes some atomic amps.

There is a difference

The Sundown SAZ 3000D:

And The RD:

Of course most of them are the same, do you think these companies make their amps form scratch? They most likely have all of them built at the same place, some with better components than others.

o i knew they werent all built in-house...im just wondering what amps are pretty much the same as the SAZ-3000D....ive found two others...anybody know anymore.....

Now ive heard an Audioque 2200 on one of there hd15's and at 3/4 gain on a really crappy jensen radio it was easily bottoming out the sub,..and by bottoming out i mean slamming the coil ( i didnt do it, he is a newbie).

On top of that after seeing some of their business practices I wouldn't give them any of my money.

i think that build has more problems then turning the knob all the way up.

positive. he can turn it all the way up to 38/40 if he turns it to around 39 to 40 the sub starts flexing a little too much and bottoms out
