A cheater amp were their 5.0 and 10.0 amplifiers. Typically it referred to amplifiers that would be rated at 25x2@4 ohm and you could run them at 1 ohm, .5 ohm and they would do substantially more power.
Orion hcca 225 25x2@4ohm 400x1@1ohm SS 10.0 25x2@4ohm 800x1@.5 ohm US AMPS VLX 25 12.5x2 400x1@.5 ohm(though people put 1500x boards in that chassis 1500x1@4ohm). ETC
