Good stuff for the price man.
I personally owned the a7hc and z400. and a few of their subs. the orange ones and some other ones i dont remember the names.
all the stuff performed very well especially for the price.
They are making a few big *** amps too now, the prs 10 i believe does 2500 rms and is strappable.

Thanks a bunch, Battyrida, I should have known that you have used some of their gear. A better question for you would be, what brands haven't you tried out, eh? 
It seems like they make some rowdy amps, and some of their subs look pretty slick too, like the Ultradrive orange cones, and the Beast/Beastmaster line, too.

Hey,
I used to use the Z5000 and the i had 4 12" beast subs. IMO the subs sounded amazing, the sq from them was really good, and damn did they get loud. The amp was pretty good, i liked it alot.
One thing though, I live on the praries, and i needed warranty work done, and they didn't help me. i sent my amp in over a year ago, and i've never heard a thing from them again. i tried calling and such, but i have since given up. In my experience their service department sucks, at least in the praries. but their gear is really nice.

I like their amps i dont care for the orange though. The carbon fiber covers look nice. the prs series amps are huge.

I used the UltraDrive components...decent cheap beginner stuff and good build quality but I switched to Memphis components and it sounds 100 times better.
Oh ya if you're looking at the UltraDrive (CWM series) components and it's telling you they come with a silk dome tweeter DON'T believe it!! They come with a titanium dome (it's the CT40 tweeter listed on their webpage) However it is still one of the less harsh ti domes out there. The mid is decent but lacks any sort of midbass (for a 5.25" at least). It sounded pretty good at first but when I heard other components the CWM component system put together sounded a bit lifeless and flat.
Apparently the amps are pretty nice I've never used them tho.

Mike, aka Hakujin on this board is using a Cadence Z7000 mono amp for his 12L7 and it rocks the beast quite hard.
Well, it used to be my amp, but it put the ***** out at 1 ohm, and at the time I didn't have a 1 ohm configurable sub.
