I own this amp with another mtx thunder elite amp and have this hooked up to an alpine type r 12" and it pounds that sub with out a problem. The settings are easy to use. I would say this amp is worth the money. I owed a boss 3000w amp before and you could tell it wasnt a 3000w amp but when you hook this amp to subs you can tell that the amp is actually worth the money!! I would recommend this Amp!
