Re: Tapco Juice Amp


Yes, I have the JBL Eons now but they are the unpowered ones. I also have a pair of Cerwin Vega D9's that I propose to maybe connect in parallel. Future uses for a high power amp could be driving a subwoofer setup. I am just poking along, trying to incrementally upgrade my stuff and catch the "deals" when I find them. Coming soon will be a Behringer V-Verb 2496 that I plan to announce in BFG.

I mentioned the 2 ohm spec as more of a comparator. It seems that your higher quality or higher regarded amps feature 2 ohm capability without issue. Some of the lighter duty amps are not designed to run at 2 ohms. Also, where some amps may say they are great at 2 ohms, when a person does it they wimp out eventually.

I don't have enough hands on experience to compare a lot of different product so I try to rely on some of my readings and the experience of others. I have shortlisted my amp desires to Crown, QSC, Behringer, or maybe the Tapco. Then I have to assess the dollars available and pull the plug when the time is right. I know I want the $450 Crown but the wallet says get the $300 Tapco.
