Those lanzar Opti amps are some real beast amps. I have the opti1400d, the opti4000d, and the opti6000d, and I'm telling you, these amps should cost way more than what they are being sold for. I didn't expect them to sound the way they do. And they stay cooler in temperature better than amps that cost more. The lanzar Opti2000d is even better than a Jl audio 1000/1 & 1200hd amp. And I'm talking better in every aspect. Put it this way, you'll rather have the lanzar opti2000d over the audiopipe ampi2000d, and audiopipe apcle1800d. They are in the same power class with each other. But the lanzar opti2000d is cleaner power, and will stay colder longer. Take it from someone who experienced them all hands on.

[@nobodysfavourite6953]

Whole Opti series of speakers and amps was beautiful, always wondered how they perform

[@robsorgdrager8477]

They are the flagship products of a budget type line of audio. They do good . The amps require a small nuclear reactor to power them and they tend to get really warm. They put out power and get stupid lowd! The subs are good . The cream of the crops are the quad stacked beasts. All in all the opti line has always been a heavy competitor in the game.

Please do some Toro Tech amps, like the R6 8000 that claims 4000wrms at .5 ohm and 3200wrms at 1 ohm for $399, that seems cheap to me where most amps between 3 and 4k get pretty pricy. Big D tested the MR2 1 ohm stable class D micro amp beat it's 1 ohm rating of 500wrms and it's tiny. I ordered the R2 class A/B 2 ohm stable because the MR2 what I wanted for my regular cab muscle truck was out of stock, it's my budget system I don't care about big bump in it it's not what the truck is for plus space is minimal and my 2010 Grand caravan is my more serious system. Trucks amp croaked so I needed an amp ASAP and I'm hoping the Toro is a good value. Toro claims CEA compliment and has accurate ratings...

Great design internally, lots of rail caps (not like the Braz amps), good board, and yeah goop those wiggly parts. Efficiency is around mid 60's percents, even close to 70 percent, but goes south at 2ohms to around 63 percent, no biggy. Great value if that's all you need.
