Tru Technologies is one of the top amp companies in the world. Only drawback is the price. They put out MASSIVE amounts of the power, and it's some of the cleanest power out there. GET IT!

Thats what my friend told me, but i also heard from many dealers that this amp is wacked. Its not worth the price and the quaitly itself is crap. Do you have any idea where i can find more information about this amp? And since this company just came out what makes this company so reliable?

You can check out forum.elitecaraudio.com There's a wealth of information there, including the creator of Tru Tech. You are correct in that there are no long term tests as of yet, but they are built with VERY high end components, and are on par with Zapco's competition line (my personal choice).

TRU amps:

Elemental Design subs:
http://www.edesignaudio.com/


I've never heard either in person, but I first heard of Elemental Designs in an outstanding review of their A-series subs. On Elemental's website, they link to TRU amps as their recommended amps. Based on the numbers I was seeing on their site, TRU amps are quite amazing. They even offer a class A amp... for a car! Geez.

Yup. TRU amps are by no means cheap! Heck, they are hand-built, and their higher end stuff uses Kimber Kable internally!

Yeah, I believe the C7 is one of the few that do use it. Their class A uses it, and I think the Hammers use it. I don't believe their T series amps use it, though. (The ones I could actually think about affording.)
