Strengths:

Massive power, very clean, 4AWG connections

Weaknesses:

The looks, but then, who's looking in my trunk all the time?

Posted Jul 21, 2003 - I don't know, but I hold a different point of view to Ratman, more than likely because his subs are not too great (To say the least!). I'm running four of these to two Digital Designs 9515s, and breathing stops at about 1/3 volume! Extreme physical pain by 1/2, and death by 2/3. I'd buy another, if I didn't have four already! L

Strengths:

great sounding,lots of power and uses less power then class a/b amps and runs cool.

Weaknesses:

has 4 low line inputs but no outputs for other amps.because its a class d amp it can only be used on subs.

Posted Mar 29, 2002 - because its a class d amp it runs cool and uses less power for the same wattage output.its one of the biggest class d amps out can pull 100+ amps current draw,I replaced a large class a/b amp that was bridged mono and found that I had tighter bass and could turn It up a lot louder before my lights would dim to the beat.I think this is one great amp at any price!

Strengths:

Class D

Weaknesses:

Not living up to it's power rating.

Posted Mar 28, 2003 - I have had this amp for about three months now. I am very unimpressed with the amp. I am running two HX2 12" Subs in a 4 Cubic Ft ported box. 1 ohm and it sounds good for the price you pay for the amp, but...I've had louder systems with amps that have way less of a power rating at 4 ohms. Would return if I could. Would reccomend for people who have a budget. If you could...spend a few dollars more and get something else.

Strengths:

This AMP pounds so hard it literally blew my back windsheild out of my 97' Altima, and the X-tra big power hookups, which I call (regulars) are nice.

Weaknesses:

The look of it isn't great but my Amps are well hidden anywayz. The whole design of this amp is for SUBZ not Tweets & Mids

Posted Jun 1, 2004 - To the people who are saying theses amps are underpowered, I think you're boxes are too small my BandPass boxes are huge with a huge slide port on each box they take up at least 80% of my trunk space. That's why I blew out my back window because my air was too constricted, but since I cut out my (Rear Deck) and a lot of metal behind my Rear Seat the flow iz fine. 98/99 Db.... (Hard Hittin)

Strengths:

easy installation, decent power but nothing special,runs cool for a long time

Weaknesses:

not as much power as it says,not many uses for it only subs

Posted Sep 6, 2003 - i have one of these amps and it dosent really bump all that good sounds like it is about 500 watts.if you do buy this i recommend you get a capulator to get a higher current to it for more power
