On Phoenix's website, they actually list a class-D mono amp, model R 2.0:1 as having 200 watt output PEAK into 2 ohms. No other specs for power. Does this mean 100 watts PEAK into 4 ohms, and like maybe 50 RMS watts at 4 ohms? What do they think I'm doing, using a 6 1/2" for a sub or something? That hardly seems like it's worth hooking up to a sub at 4 ohms. And especially making it a class-D amp. I thought these were supposed to be better and more efficient than a MOSFET amp.
Also, their R 9.0:5 amp, a 5 channel amp, says it's 125 x 4 PEAK at 4 ohms, and 400 x 1 PEAK at 2 ohms bridged. HELLO....it's a 5 channel amp, you can't bridge it. And even if I misunderstood somehow, would it be bridgable at 2 ohms?
Also everything is rated at PEAK powers, no RMS listed at all. That plus all the inconsistancies, and the low prices compared to high end features like being class-D makes me think these could be cheap amps.
Should I assume that, or chalk it up to the website having not enough information, and some misprints, and still consider them?

i remember that amp puting out 150-200rms at 2 ohm but i dont remember exact number.... my friend had one pushing a PG 10"
