Does anyone have any experience with these amps? <BR> <BR>Just by looking at the specs, they look prety good, but would like to poll the crowd to see if anyone has any first hand experience with them... <BR> <BR>I'm thinking of putting this amp on a WetSounds Double up... <BR> <BR> <BR><a href="http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_3693_MA+Audio+HK898.html#" target="_blank">http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_3693_MA+Audio+HK898.html#</a> <BR> <BR> <BR>Another possibility is the Alpine PDX series amp. Any thoughts on those?

just switched all my amps to pdx's love them

i also know a lot of people who love the alpine pdx's

I've concidered the MA amps but ended up going with Cadence instead, just couldnt find enough info on them. I just cant see puting them in the same class as the new PDX's though?? <BR> <BR>If your interested in that amp at a way better price and havent seen it heres a link. <BR><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/MA-AUDIO-HK898-2-CHANNEL-AMPLIFIER-AMP_W0QQitemZ360134868969QQcmdZViewItemQQptZCar_Am plifiers?hash=item360134868969&amp;_trksid=p3286.c 0.m14&amp;_trkparms=72%3A1205%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7 C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318%7C301%3A1%7C293%3A1%7C294%3A5 0" target="_blank">http://cgi.ebay.com/MA-AUDIO-HK898-2-CHANNEL-AMPLIFIER-AMP_W0QQitemZ360134868969QQcmdZViewItemQQptZCar_Am plifiers?hash=item360134868969&amp;_trksid=p3286.c 0.m14&amp;_trkparms=72%3A1205%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7 C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318%7C301%3A1%7C293%3A1%7C294%3A5 0</a>

I had a MA amp in one of my boats. I thought that it sounded pretty good. They have different series of amps with the HK series being their best. I will say that compared to Soundstream and Kicker which I have also had, the MA heated up a lot more. The soundstream Tarantula series stayed the coolest and sounded the best (loudest also).

I wouldn't use MA but would use Alpine or kicker if it is a budget issue.

I have MA audio amps in my boat and I like them... They sound good enough and the price is right. Haven't had a problem yet (3 years). I'm sure they are not as good as some of the other stuff out there but I can't really tell the difference.
