You can only get 600 watts out of that amp! If you wire your subs up the best you can get is 4 ohm

MA Audio is typical run of the mill cheap entry level gear...I dun much like any of the amps in that category other than the JBL bp1200.1 which is a far superior amp in the same price range...the MA stuff doesnt impress me much, so I personally wouldnt buy it...
you may want to look into the JBL cuz it will do the 1 ohm that you will have to wire your speakers too...the nice thing about it is that it will do 1200W RMS at 2 or 1 ohm...that and its cheap...heh...

MA audio amps are great. We competed all year and earned enough points to go the USAC world finals 2002 ( out law spl) in Kansas using ma audio amps. Dont let anyone tell that they are not a company with very high standards.

I have heard MA audio is not bad but not good. I would go with the above selection of the jbl amp. I heard one of those slamming 3 infinity perfect 12's. It did a great job.

Ma audio and Mobile authority ar owned by the same company Mobile authority is the lower end stuff. Personnaly i'm a big fan of ma audio
To answer the original question. Ma audio amps are quality stuff. For what you're looking for it'll do just fine. it won't blow you away but that's just because of the wattage you're looking for.

excuse me for asking, but it was told to me that Ma audio, audiobahn, digital audio and Q power were all from the same company. it was said that they were all introduced one after the other to out perform the one before. I've seen Ma audio and it is pretty decent equipment.
