I purchased this amp because my kicker amp got shorted out while working on the truck. So i didnt want to spend a fortune again for another kicker. Figured for the price i would give it a try. Well i cant believe im saying this, but it blows my kicker out of the water. (and all i run is kicker) This pushes my kicker 6x9's outstandingly. And it stays ice cold. No hiss or distortion what so ever. So after this great experience i gave my kicker sub amp to my son and purchased the pioneer D mono block amp. And it is just as fantastic. My other amps cost double or triple the price of these pioneer digital amps and i have to say the pioneers are much better. Anyways what a great product ( VALUE-SQ ) Buy these new digital series amps and you wont be disapointed. WELL DONE PIONEER
