Just plain Awesome! Could drive 20 speakers in 2 ohm without even a thought of overload..
Weakness:
Sorry had to sell my truck with 3 z100's Thats all Similar Products Used: I went to same store and found out Zapco was sold and now they sold me an ARC Audio 4050.. This thing took my 3 Zaps and demolished them! No kidding! it is incredibly powerful. One downpoint is it can take a while to figure out the controls.. |

z100 and studio 500
Strength:
Beautiful piece of engineering. Sound quality is amazing, you would even know that the z100 was only 25 watts per channel.
Weakness:
The price is a bit steep. The first time I ever heard a zapco amp it was the old studio 204 running a complete system with 50 watts each going into a set of focal 165k's and a set of idq 12's. I could not believe that it was only 50 watts to each driver. What impressed me even more was that it was the first time that I even heard of zapco. I am now a zapco diehard. Buy them if you have the money. They will be the last amps you'll ever get. Well worth it. As for the guy that gave his zapco amp 1 star, he obviously doesn't know what he's got or is clueless to car audio. Saying that the strength of the amp was that the paint didn't chip when he dropped it was one of the stupidest things I have heard. True audiophiles will give testiment to the quality of these amps. These amps are not for you average boomers. Buy zapco if you want some serious sq. Don't buy it, do a crappy install, then complain about how bad they sound because the amp wasn't pushing your $30 roadgears hard enough. They might not attract the average person, but they are truly one of the best amps out today. Similar Products Used: mtx, orion, kenwood, alpine, hifonics, sony, rockford......they can even touch these amps. Zapco is in a different league. |

I use this amp for my highs,.Diamond Hex 6 1/2 s', Outstanding sq, great looks! The sq is so clear you can hear a pin drop. Zapco is the best amp I have ever heard.
Weakness:
c'mon.. ZAPCO...WEAKNESSES? None. this product is great, if you have the cash, it is well worth it. Without a doubt. You will never go to anything else. Similar Products Used: Zapco really doesn't compare to any other amp I have used. Like the previous person said. " Zapco is in a league of its own" |

1998 Zapco AG360
Strength:
For a 4 channel amp at a very reasonable price, this amplifier kicks ass. It powers my JL sub unbelievably and it can really take a beating. I highly recommend this amp to everyone.
Weakness:
None @300-400 dollars, don't remember! Absolutely worth the investment Similar Products Used: Compared to the Soundstream amp i had previously, this amp is 100 times better. The soundstream amp, the 200s i think it was, was very weak and hardly gave the hit to my subwoofer that my zapco does. |

The Zapco Z200c2-SL is one of the best sounding amps. Excelent quaility with no hint of distortion even with the gains almost all the way up playing at loud volumes. Deffinately one of the best mid/high amp you can buy. Also a very good sub amp if using one 10 or 2 8's for sound quaility. |

I have a Z-600 and a Z-200, after buying these amps, I will never buy another brand of amplifiers again. Featuring low distortion, high slew rates and high dampening factors, these amps kick a**. The 4 layer PC boards makes people's jaw drop when they see such little amps putting out so much power. I would definatly recommond these amps to anyone. They are a little spendy, but worth every penny. |
