[no model number was given by the OP. I have no positive experience with AudioPipe, but no experience with their large amps. hence, no comment.
regardless, if it "beats" a 2500.1 but costs less than half as much, it's suspect. you get what you pay for.
IT depends,look on termpro, google and you would see many valid tests done stating it does its power,alot of amps have been rebadged and have the same innards so if company A wants a thousand dollars for the same amp company B has at five hundred,which would you choose???? Regardless I am sure the amp is just as reliable as some other brands,I am going to try one myself and see,google and look at the various amps insides and you might be surprised at the companies that use the same exact amp and the price differences between them.For example look here:
http://forum.realmofexcursion.com/gallery/browseimages.php?c=1454
As you can see the powerbass has the same insides as the Roadstar RS-6800D Agressive SPL and the Starsound SSA-D7000,how much do you want to bet that the prices were not the same????

thank you for being polite. 
i've been to that site before, handy for seeing innards, but what looks the same in a picture does not mean it is actually the same electrically.
you aren't going to talk me into buying Audiopipe. i won't buy their product. i'm not bashing Audiopipe, i'm saying i have no experience with their large amps, and therefore won't buy it. i am also suspect of something that is cheaper than it should be. that's all.
if you like them, and use them, and are happy, then that's great.

I have also noticed those amps were not always this cheap,they started at around $800 and as with everything the price usually drops,believe me if this amp is a turd you will hear about from me,and as far as the electrical differences on the same amps you see the innards on they are very minor if any at all and do not justify the hundreds or thousands in price differences for the same amp probably even made in the same manufacturing plants in china or korea,which brands are truly made in the usa anymore???
Handcrafted maybe,but that is just a play on words when the innards are from another country.

agreed, some are assembled in the US, but the boards are outsourced.
thanks for adding another amp to the "good" list.
