hey you guys i have 4 12in memphis power reference subs. im gonna run them down to 2 ohms and im not sure which amp to get. Either the jbl 1200.1 or the memphis 1500D? the subs are only rated at like 250 each sub so like 1000 total. I am aware of setting all the gains and stuff but im just wondering if i should spend more money and get the 1500. Is it worth it and will it be louder ? thanks

The 1500 will be louder. Will it be an audible difference?? Probally not. Is it worth the extra money?? Again, probally not.

would it be worth it to spend an extra 75 bucks for the memphis?

Both are nice amps with comparable specs, so I would go with whichever one has the options you like the most, and whichever one you can get cheapest.
