Audiobahn... good or bad?

I always thought Audiobahn was something of a cheap brand, does anybody know different? They have this amp - http://www.cardomain.com/item/ABNA6601T and I think it would be a good deal for redoing a Trans AM monsoon system. What do you guys think?

I like Audiobahns, I think they sound real good, but it all depends on your preferences and what kind of music you listen to. I listen to alot of metal and I think it sounds good for that...

I have run there speakers to the max you could say, I ran two of their 10" Pro Pressure Subs with two Orion XTR Pro 2400. Yes that is right, 2400 watts per sub. Talk about your brain rattling.
Anyway, I have never had a problem with their subs, I have never ran their amps. I have friends who have, and loved them.
But I am sure there will be others with their own opinions.

They have lots of bling, but not a lot of boom.

You can do better.

I think they are great quality for the amount you are paying for them.

So for $559 your getting a craptastic 6 channel amp?

On Ebay, you can get a new JL Slash Series 500/5 for $549 + S/H
You could get an Boston Acoustics GT-50 for <$500
Kicker KX700 for around $300
Eclipse EA3532 for a couple hundred

All of the above are 5 channel amps that I have more faith in in terms of real output and SQ when compared to Audiobahn.
