powerbass xa3000 vs orion 2500d

[pimpedout97x 4]

which would you guys pick? both would be @ 1 ohm, and i just got a kinetik hc2400 as well (for the mini)

the amp is for my 12" mt

only thing is ive heard the failure rate on the PB is alot higher than the 2500d. my friend has an xa3000, and its broken 2 or 3 times already, even after PB fixes it. it does good power, just i dont want it breaking down on me...

i got it MINT for about 200 bux... 400 for the battery and the amp, both are like new, ill post pics later

Stick with Orion, I did.

i want to, if i can find the guy that wanted to trade me his 2500d for my turbostart batts...the powerbass is nice though too...ive heard people that have had no problems, but ive heard people that have, like my friend that had one...it broke 2 times...

i think the main problem with the pb 3k is that terroids short out on the base of the heat sync plate.

i herd an owner say the terroids are just too tall for the heat sync it comes with.

well i talked to the guy i got it from (dirt cheap btw!) and he said that the issue with these amps was the big resistor inside would pop off the board, but that was on the 1st version they made, he said his is the 3rd, and its never given him a problem. i think im gonna keep it for now, well see how it goes.

400 cash local pickup for that batt and the amp, thats a damn good deal IMO.

i wonder why you ask which one to buy when you already have your mind set on something...

[pimpedout97x 4]

i only got the powerbass becuase i couldnt pass up the deal, which im sure no one would pass up this deal (400 for amp/batt)

IF i sell it, ill be making money, and im only getting the 2500d if this guy locally trades me for some 16v batts i have...

which one do yall think draws the least current at full tilt, at one ohm? the hc2400 helped out alot, but the powerbass still draws some current... its between the powerbass, orion 2500d, or the memphis mcd2500
