Default Db drive amps

I haven't heard to much about these amps.
Has anyone tried this company's NEO series class d amps?
Looking for some pros and cons.
Are these amps warm , bright or flat sounding?
I am looking for a possible replacement for my sound stream pn4 1000D?

System speakers are as follows
DD VO and tweeters for front stage
Moto 602s or Hertz HCX165 rear tour pack pods.

Sound quality is average, better than the PN4 but less output. Same Korean build house that makes the DS18 amps. They're decent budget amps, not bad for the price....but for PA speakers to sound their best you need a better sound quality amp. I tried the VO's with a PN4 and with an Arc 600.4 and a T400X4AD and it was night and day difference.

So what amp would you suggest? Current speakers listed above with stock Rushmore 6.5 HU and BT355 levelers 14 limited with no speaker pods.

The arc or the T400 is an awesome choice....Also consider the D4 from DD audio or my personal go to amps the Diamond line...We have had great success with Diamond amps on sound quality.
