Lanzar Vibe amps

Opinions opinions opinions!

I can get my hands on these amps for very cheap - 125 watts RMS x 4 @ 4 ohms for $130 - I can hardly resist.

I know the "too good to be true" adage, and I've been my own victim with cheap amps in the past. But I've been reading up on lots of boards, and the general consensus is that Lanzar Vibe amps are a damn solid budget amplifier. I know the Vibe 1200D is a serious JBL 1200.1 competitor, and many people actually PREFER it, saying it has a better crossover section AND a subsonic filter, and will put out almost 1300 watts @ 2 ohms.

I wonder if the quality makes it down the line to the Viberant models, which is what I'm looking at.

So - any Vibe experiences would help. Buy 'em or don't buy 'em? And WHY!

Lanzar Amp

I got a lanzar pushing my mids and highs. Had it for over a year now and the system sounds awesome. Would be a wise move IMO (providing the amp is in good condition).

I don't think you can get any beter condition than brand spanking new. Yep - the prices I listed are for brand new amps:

Vibe 428: 125 watts RMS x 4 @ 4 ohms.....$130 shipped
Vibe 238: 300 watts RMS x 2 @ 2 ohms.....$100 shipped

It's just too damn tempting.

BTW - hearing from someone actually USING a Lanzar (and not the class D sub amp, which is pretty popular) is great! P.King - what model Lanzar are you running?

P.King - this is just the kind of info I needed.

My mind is now more made up than ever.

Thanx!
