Wayne.. I have a quick question. It would appear that the limit is set to 1000w for just about every amp. So why is it that there are a few which are rated over the 1000w limit but are still allowed where others arent? Basically I'm trying to understand the logic of how they were chosen and I'm sure others will want to know as well.
(btw, I'm not trying to single out the Crunch amps, they were just the first examples I found)

You are correct. Rather than researching thousands of products, I will wait for competitors who use these older products to request approval (here).

Illegal: Crossfire VR1202 Not Permitted 600x2=1200 Memphis MCH1300 Not Permitted 1100x1=1100
Because the Crunch amps power shown are "maxx power" that you see but the RMS power is far less then 1000 watts.

I see Orion on the list, but not PPI, Directed or Directed Extreme. Is DEI only supporting DB Drag with the Orion Brand or am I just missing something.

Just so I know I have this right, If an Amp is not on the Approved list I should put the person in the actual db drag clas they fit (Freestyle-Extreme) or Bass race then ask to have the amp added to the list, so they can compete in Street Stock the rest of the year. Is this the way the dbDRA would like to see this done?

Glad to see a list is finally out. Just a thought though, with everyone asking why isn't this one or that one on the list, why not submit a request like Wayne said. And help him out a little, like give him the link for the info on the amp/amps in question so he can approve or not approve the amps and we can get a bigger list done faster.

After speaking with various manufacturers regarding product popularity and price points, this list will probably change to allow amps up to 2000 watts. I am still soliciting input from retailers.
Ultimately, we may end up with a "short" list of amps that may not be used. Instead of a long list such as this one.
The speaker list is coming.

Well, it just may be that someone has a couple 750 to 1000 watt amps and may know the benefit of strapping them.
Remember, in Street Stock these are consumers and many of them will have $300 - $500 mono amps and if competing, they will want to maximise what they have just like the bigger classes do but of course they have budget and very low power limitations to contend with.
No matter what they do, they are limited to only 2000 watts.
