I was just trying to get some personal opinions. I feel that Pioneers build
their amps on the silky side (high frequency rolled off) and the Sony's are
usually agressive and sharp. However, I'm not crazy about the build quality
of the Sonys. Do you guys agree?

I haven't had any experience with Alpine. Also, I can't seem to find any
dealers that will have these 3 amps listenable. They usually have one or the
other.

Amp-out my capacitor brothers!

and remember to volt in November!
That's a good one.

I agree with Tony, if you ask that question of 10 of us, you will get 10
different opinions. In particular, with amps it really doesn't make much
difference as far as sound quality (now reliability can be a different
matter). Watt does this mean? A watt is a watt, period.

All those companies you named have solid track records for producing
reliable products, so reliability really doesn't come into play as it
would for "swap-meet" type amps. My advice to you would be to try and
find the best deal you can (dollars per watt) from a reliable
manufacturer.

So watt's-out for good deals, and remember to volt in November!
