I trying to decide if I should use an Autotek Mean Machine or Zapco AG360. The Zapco is four channels, but I can bridge it on each woofer. The autotek is strictly for bass. Can someone give me some advice.

They are not even the same class... If you have to choose between these two, there is no choice - Zapco.

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

Autotek is more power per dollar. Zapco is more of a SQ amp build. Choice is what you can afford.

I agree not in the same price class. Zapco makes an awesome product it is just not proportional with their price. Autotek all the way on this one.

If your still looking I have some Zapco 4 sale. 2 Reference 1000, 1 Reference 650, and 1 weird ass amp. It says that it is a Ref. 350, but it is in the same chassie as the 1000s and 650. When you open it up there is 2 Reference 350s in it. Its kinda cool. I also have a SP4L???? I think thats the model. Its the Preamp EQ piece that goes up front turns RCA into Symblink. Much better sound, I also have enough symblink crap to wire all of Seattle. Let me know if interested.
