| I would say IA 40.1 is right there with the Cactus 4k, if not a little better. The 40.1 is the only comprable amp they make to cactus. And IA is reliable as hell, and cost are in line. So that I would say is a inaccurate statement../ |

| I liked both amps when I ran them (the CS 5kW and the IA 40.1). The 5kW was about 1db stronger for me though but Im running them on low voltage where the 5kWs shine. |

| i also tested the IA 40.1 not a bad amp for the price but the cactus 5kw got it by a full 1db i dont know about the 4kw havent got to test it.
they will beat the AB amps
only DD amp that would come close im my testing was the Z1A it put the hurt on the Z1 and the Z2 isnt really a 12volt amp
i havent got a test vs the kicker war horse. 1 for 1 the WH should beat almost every amp out there but there are some amps still on there way so at the moment the WH should be the best
hey redhanded fell free to hit me up i have tested lots of amps from almost every company heads to heads for brand X competion. pm me any questions ill c if i can help later |

Does my statement still look inaccurate now, brother Bruce? I never owned either amp, but I draw my experiences from what I've seen in the other organization. It was just my opinion.
As you can see Geoff is better qualified to answer on this topic. |

hey nice me and geoff know alot about the 5kws they are sick but bruce did say the 4kw not the 5kw. in my opinion not testn the 4kw vs the ia40.1 is that it would be close but i would say the cactus 4kw would still get it. but not a ful bd like the 5kw. but the cactus amps will play at low voltage and do realy crazy power. |

| Thanks James. Re read Nice. You can not compare apples to oranges. The 40.1 dont claim 5k, but it a very strong 4kw. |
