yea, but is it worth the difference in price for ppi...i have a 500.4 viper that when i crank it its cutting out, and i took it to the only local dealer and he said its a bad amp. and i need to send it out to viper, or spend more money and get a ppi...he says theyre better, but i thought they were the same thing!

he wants to take my amp and 280 for a 580 ppi ( i think it 580...its a 4 channel amp120x4 he says)

as i think about it.,...maybe its jst the way im using it....i had the gain maxed out with the bass boost...maybe thats hitting too hard for it, or should it be able to push it no problem? it is designed to be a four channel not a sub amp...what do you think?

i have heard of a few people now with those amps going into clipping/protection, i havent worked with one yet so i cant judge them, dei has never done me wrong for alarms ect...but PPI has always been great audio equipment so you cant go wrong there
