Orion and Powerbass are decent quality so I'd get one of those.

Those PCA-D series from Soundstream have been known to be very good amps as well.They're nothing like the rest of their garbage that they make these days.The only amps I wouldn't run would be the Hifonics and the Powerbass.I'd take the Orion and then the Soundstream and forget the other two.

Out of the 4 you listed above I would take the Orion HCCA-D2400 or the Soundstream PCA1500D.

Powerbass ASA amps do around %80 of rated power so if your looking at Powerbass ASA.

Take a look at the ASA2000.1D

MillionBuy spec are wrong for the ASA2000.1D

Powerbass ASA2000.1D
500x1 @ 4ohm
1000x1 @ 2ohm
2000x1 @ 1ohm

Ok, so if my calculations are right, then that ASA would be putting out 1600 Watts at 1ohm? If so then that would be 800 Watts to each sub. RMS is 600 Watts so I highly doubt an extra 200 Watts on my SE's would do any damage. What size wiring should I use with that amp? 1/0 gauge?

Also, I was always curious if that Orion HCCA2400 put out more than what it's rated at 1ohm?

I just found this US Amp for around the same price:

Between the HCCA2400, ASA2000, and this US Amp, which do you think would perform better?

in output, powerbass ASA, the us amp is an entry model so it won't do 2000w rms, maybe something like800-1000w rms.

If the price is right, get the ASA, lil extra power won't hurt, plus you could benchtest it for us
