Hi guys, Find these amps in one of the local car audio forum:- 1) TRU Tech 2.100 2) Genesis Dual Mono Amplifier Right now, still deciding which amp to buy. FYI, Both amp is about 2 years old, used. Can any sifu out there give opinion on which amp should I go to? Price offered for this 2 amp is almost the same. My music genre is more to vocal and some instrument music, so little bassy is needed too. But at this moment just wanna install component and an amp to drive it. Component preferred is new set Focal/Diamond but I haven't decided yet. May I know pro and con of these 2 amps? So any advise???

Will do harm to the speaker set? Yes, you are rite, TRU price lower abit, price different bout 200, used 1.5years, but Genesis used 2 years.

how abt ur HU? I would comment spend more on HU & comps set. Powerful does not means will harm ur speaker, as by the end is just how u play around the amp gain....which focal range u plan?why not consider of steg amps(q series), a new set abt the price of these used amp.also focal match good with xetec amp. Saw one used unit selling......i bought tru is to whack my sub but just try to swap my comps...
abt the pricey of both amp, i would comment take on genesis....unless the tru amp offer much lower.....

Between the Genesis DM and TRU T2.100, I'll take the Genesis too. Both are good amps but in this case the DM is better. The old TRU T and T03 series are powerful but harsh sounding.
Another option if you don't need that much power would be Zapco C2K-2.0X (top of the line range). I'm able to get you new with warranty for only $2xxx. PM me for details.
