    Helix A2 + A4 completion vs Zapco Z150.6 AP

    So I currently have a Helix A2 powering a set of AF GB60s. I love the look of the amp and it sounds fantastic although it is only playing midbass so it’s hard to truly judge. I just sold the Mosconi AS100.4 that was powering the GB10/25s. Now I’m trying to decide which route to go. I’ve been searching for a Helix A4 for some time now and only found 1 but the guy didn’t want to use PayPal so I’m unsure about it. My choices are to continue searching for a A4 or sell the A2 also and get the zapco amp. Does anyone have any comparisons between the two?

    I love both Helix and Zapco product, so I'm just throwing out points of consideration;
    - Helix amps look a bit cooler with the acrylic covers, but thats a matter of opinion
    - Helix amps have a little less "rated" output, but with multiple amps comes extra power connectivity.
    - You didn't mention a DSP, but if you use Helix amps / Helix DSP, there is a consistency in brand and appearance which some people prefer.
    - Zapco gets you slightly more "rated" power.
    - Zapco would need less power connectivity.
    - Size might be a consideration, can you fit 2 amps, can you fit a 22.5" amp (Zapco)?

    Good luck, tough choice really!

    A2 is a power house and you won't hear much difference switching to Zapco.
