Anyone know if this amp is decent? https://www.lanzar.com/itempage.asp?model=D2000M

I don't expect it to be great but I don't have a lot of money and I can't afford to spend $400-$500 on an amp.

I found the VIBE 1500D better, looks and performance wise.

First off before I make any suggestions what kind of subs will you be running? And 2nd what is your budget?

The subs that are in my sig...500W RMS/1000W peak each. And as low as possible :D don't want to go over $250 for the amp. I'd prefer class T over class D, but they aren't out with any respectable power ratings yet so I will have to go with class D. And it should preferrably be 1 ohm stable since I have 2 4ohm DVC subs, either that or it should have a really high power rating to compensate for the load being halved (I can run in 1 ohm or 4 ohm, 1 might overload, 4 will be a waste)

a JBL bp1200.1 is about $280, I dont know if you can go that far over your budget, but it does the same power into 2 and 1 ohm...and they are probably one of the best amps you can find as far as bang for buck goes...

JBL BPs are 1-ohm stable? I was actually looking at them.

Ok, it's a consideration then. But I'd still like some feedback on the 2 Lanzars above.
