im not lookin to enter a competition but i do want quality sound and durability,i dont want an amp that will overheat quick or blow....i was lookin at power acoustik,us acoustic and profile (from crutchfield) are these brand good and reliable....

 

no, no, and no

If you want reliability and quality but dont want to spend a lot, go for MTX Road Thunder series.

 

Actually US Acoustic are very good quality on a budget. We sell them at Ampman Audio as our budget line of amps. Power Acoustik are all about flashy looks but they are not up to the level of flash in terms of their actual performance and quality. Profile amps are generally built quite well. They however are not the best choice in that price segment but they do last a long time.

Other beginner brands to consider are ESX Quantum, Autotek, Pheonix Gold QX series, DEI Directed Audio, Alpine, Sony, HiFonics, JBL, Coustic, MTX RT series and Orion Cobalt.
