This amp is very powerfull, but at the same time makes clean, clear bass. I am running this with 2 15" kicker comp subwoofers at 4ohms and if tuned properly will pound hard.

I have 1 of these amps pushing 2 Kenwood KFC-W3013PS 12" Single 4 ohm Performance subs and they hit hard. My nose tickles from the bass! Haha it has cooling FANS which a lot of amps do NOT so that's a PRO for me. There are no cons. Definitely recommend this amp, its lots of power on a budget if you don't want Alpine, Rockford Fosgate, or Kicker etc.

I have owned this amp for almost a year now and have had no problems with it. I have it pushing 2 Kenwood 12" KFC-3011s at 4ohms and this thing is a BEAST! I have owned a few other amps, but nothing like this one, it has the same power as any other amp in its category at a lower price. I also own a Kenwood KAC-8404 4-channel that is pushing 2 Kenwood 6x9s in the rear and 2 Kenwood 6x8s in the front doors and its pure Sound Quality all the way around. Definitely recommend this amp for anyone looking to build a beginner to intermediate system.

Sounds great running 2 Kicker CVR's, turned up it will make your head hurt, doesn't drain alot from car electrical system, just wish the control dials were under the removable plate instead of on the side with the connections

Just a note tho, running at 2ohm load this thing gets pretty warm after 45 minutes to an hour, make sure it has ventilation

i purchased this amplifier after running through 2 soundstorm ev.4000's in a month. This amp not only sounds better, it has performed without any issues for the last two months. i am only running my 15" at 4 ohms and it shakes my entire car, i am very pleased with kenwood as a brand and will continue to buy their products, sonic electronix was great about replacing the garbage that i bought by mistake from s******.

This amp is just what you are looking for if you want loud, powerful, clean, and clear bass. Kenwood is the way to go. I used to own the KAC-9102D series amp but some low life broke into my car and stole it. I really liked the way the amp performed so I decided to go back with Kenwood. My new amp is just what I was looking for, it doesn't shut off and stays cool no matter how loud I play my music. I have to say Kenwood is one of the few I will really put my money on because their products always leave you satisfied. This amp also has a great price on it for as much power as it puts out. I think I may end up putting another alternator on my car way sooner than I think lol.

It would prolly give me another 3-1/2 years. For the money you will not find anything comparable for quality longevity and shake your eyeball bass!! Bridged.. it will perform!!!

Purchased Kenwood amp and Pioneer comp. series subs. System worked fine for a month. Sound became "muffled" and would cut out at highter volumes. I had system professionally installed and went to a second company to find out what happened to original power it had for the first month. They say it sounds "good" but it's just not the same! Beware of buying off internet if you have problems with equipment! Price savings isn't worth it if it doesn't work!

Having been through just about every manufacturer of amps on the market between my 4 teenage boys, I can honestly say that the Kenwood product is by far the best. They stay cool, work flawlessly, and are rock solid for the price point. Have installed in 4x4 rock climbing truck down to a lowered Acura Integra and they just keep on pushing out the power.

I am EXTREMELY impressed with this amplifier. Lots of reviews state it ISN'T 1 ohm stable. Well guys, they're completely WRONG. My friend is running his Kenwoods off of this and I am running my RF P2 12's off of this, both of us running each setup at 1 ohm. With the 4 gauge wiring kit, I can turn this amp up to about .3 input sensitivity on the amp, and it holds up to everything I throw at it. Slams the hell outta my car, crazy windshield flex with a SEALED box. Highly recommend this product and will most definitely buy more Kenwood amps in the future!

I got this amp six months ago and have been nothing but happy with it. I am using it currently to power a 12" Kicker L7 which peaks at 1500 watts so this amp is more than enough to handle the sub. I would suggest this amp to anyone looking for a good, reliable amp. The only problem I ran into with it was that I had to get a new wiring kit when I got it because the set up I had wasn't able to provide enough power to the amp to keep it going. Other than that it has been well worth the buy and I am more than pleased with the decision I made six months ago.

I've had this amp for almost two years now. Its powering 2 p2's currently hooked up at 2 ohms. I have 0 gauge to cap then 4 to the amp and wire under 4 gauge will melt withthis amp and youll be buying fuses left and right. THIS AMP IS NOT 1 OHM stable it will over heat in a matter of minutes. Never hooked it up at 4 ohms but at 2 ohms it will handle most songs no problem. From the meter on my cap, when it pulls 14 volts it cuts out on me. Definitely need 4 volt pre amp out to enjoy this amp. If your on a budget and dont care about occisianal cut off go for it, if you got the money to spend, spend it. I'm currently trying to decide to buy a second amp one for each sub or if i just want one sperate amp to replace this one. Thanks for all the reviews.

I can say for sure that this little amp puts out as much power as it says it does. Sadly, since I bought this amp 6 months ago I got another sub and need about 800 more watts of amp. This one, however, seems to be powering both of them fine for now. It eats more than enough power from my battery off 0 gauge wiring and dims my headlights so much that I don't even need a strobe light! After 5 months of putting out it's max power, it's still going strong.

Can't turn it up, find myself dialing back the settings. have it paired this the jvc arsenal head unit for 5v preamp outputs this is just sick. Gonna cut back to 1 sub its just too much.

I had these hooked to two 15s kicker comps and they pounded really hard in my truck. I now have it hooked to two kicker 12s and they hit hard as well. I would recommend this to a friend any day.

I just got this kenwood amp. Been a fan forever, running two RE AUDIO dual 4s down to 1ohm. It's so loud! Ran it for more than 2hrs on my trip to Wisconsin from Chicago. Did not over heat, ran pretty steady. Each sub at rms holds 600 watts this amp is giving each 450 rms and its bumping like crazy. If you are kenwood fan... this is a must have.

The quality and performance of this amp is outstanding, being Kenwood of course!! I am a car audio buff with over 30 years of hands on experience, I used many different brands and always found Kenwood to be the best performer. I like to say Sonic Electronix is the top performer in this market!!

It looks great, and is fairly small compared to others in the 1500-2000w range. Don't let the size fool you though, it packs quite a punch. I have it wired down to 2 ohms @ 900w rms with two 12" 07 Kicker CVR's in a ported box and it pounds so hard. The rear spoiler and mirrors shake like you wouldn't believe (my right mirror is ready to fall off now). The fans and its design really help to keep it cool, it barely gets warm to the touch without any shutdowns due to overheating. (Even when running it on almost full blast for over an hour) I had recommended getting Hifonics before and still do, but for about the same price you can get a little extra power. I also have my system tuned with an SMD - DD1 (distortion detector) for max performance and sound quality.

I have this amp with a 10" alpine type x, and this amp seemed almost too powerful; until I figured out that you have to match the input sensitivity with your deck. I've had this setup for a month now and it sounds better everyday, I can turn up the gain higher now that the sub is broken in. The amp has never cut out and the fans keep it nice and cool. Great amp for the money. Just remember to match your input sensitivity from your deck to your amp.

I had this amp wired to two ohms driving two kfc w3012s. It banged decently but it had problems with cutting out on low or powerful notes when it was really turned up. I replaced it with a kicker zx750.1 and wow the kicker has so much more power with the gain and bass boost not even half way up then the kenwood could get maxed out. I actually blew out one of my subs with the kicker. Save your money and go with the kicker.

This is a wonderful amplifier that delivers an excessive amount of power and remains cool in doing so. I have it pushing 2 old Audiobahns, and soon to be 2 Fosgate Punch Level 2 12s.
I have a Kenwood In-Dash as well. I am a huge fan of Kenwood's Amplifiers, Head-Units, and of course their Equalizers but as far as their Subs and Speakers go, meh, not too big on them. I'd go with Kicker or Rockford Fosgate for my Subs if I have the bucks to spend but if Im strap for cash Audiobahn has some nice subs for a cheap price.

Anyways I love the Dual Mono Driver this amplifier has, this way I can hook my 2 12s up seperately, yet this amp is still a mono amp. Just with to places for you to hook speakers. Makes it a bit more simple. Glad it has Pre-Outs, really convienient for when I plan to add a Kenwood Amp for my 6x9s.

I bought this amp to put with my 1100w RMS Audiobahn sub, after the 1000w amp I had started overheating. Within 2 weeks, I blew out the sub (which should have been able to handle it). Afterwards, I bought 2 Polk audio subs to go with this amp, and haven't looked back. This is a very powerful amp that shakes everything in the car. Not for those with sensitive ears. Great amp, and cheap too. Will recommend to anyone who wants a loud system in their car

I have this amp powering my 2 old a** Audiobahn ALUM10N subs. I'm going to upgrade to a type R soon but for now this amp makes these 10s wake up. They are 6 ohm subs but I wired them both to run at about 1.5 ohms which is weird but thats as normal as they can get. But this amp is a beast. I can play it all day long with no problems. Only thing is it draws A LOT of current. So to all of you reviewers that say its loud at one point and gets quiet while playing at high volumes you need to upgrade your electrical system. This amp only cuts down for me as I watch my voltage meter in my dash drop steadily and my lights dim down. Order yourself a kinetik hc and all your cutting down problems will be solved. I love the cooling fans on this amp and never had an overheating problem. It is definitely a good buy for the price and I do recommend it.

Would recommend for a lot of different subs. i run 2 type r 12's at 4 ohms and works good. I also know someone who runs 4 12" kenwoods @ 2 ohms each so each are getting 750watts with no problem. Make sure ground is good and if you arent 100% on install let a professional do it. It may cost around $75 but is worth it to have the warrreny through sonic and the installer

I bought this amp a number of months after buying my Kenwood KFC-3012 subwoofers (12" 400w per)
The sound improvement from my old amp to this one was unbelievable! Definitely a very powerful amp at 2 ohms, I can run it aaaaalllll daaaay looong and it will never get hot, it never shuts off and it always makes my trunk lid rattle :)
My only regret is that I paid $300 for it at a retail store instead of shopping online first =(
I would recommend this amp to anyone who is going to run it at 2ohms and need around 800-1000w of power. VERY nice buy for the price

I bought it for 200$ at the time, I guess the prices go up and down a lot on here. But it gives out about 400 watts at 13.8 which is a realistic car voltage. Not the 14.4 that's advertised. So if you want 300-400 watts, buy it. If you need 500+ go with something else.

Purchased this for a pair of Pioneer TS-W308D4s.
After hooking it all up the subs began cutting out at a 1ohm load. Tried everything and long story short after bringing in a buddy stereo installer he found the amp is NOT 1800 watts. No fault to anyone but Kenwood because you have to dig through their website to find that you need to daisy chain two of these to accomplish the 1800 watts they claim. It's simple due to the design of the amp but I still felt somewhat mislead. The design, function, ease of use is all top notch but please be mindful that you're actually purchasing one heck of a 900w amp. However, not a 1800w device.

Have it wired down to 1 ohm on 2P312D4s. Sounds pretty dang loud. Cuts out every now and then because it pulls so much current. But if looking for a strong amp stick with rockford. Cant go wrong there. On the other hand this thing is pretty strong, as of right now. Subs still pull to much power from this amp even at 1 ohm. If short on money just wire to 1 ohm and sounds amazing. Dont know how long it will last at 1 ohm but will find out.

But if u get one that works properly its a very good amp. Best ive heard besides the alpine amps. If u dont want this kenwood go Hifonics. Great amps best bump for your buck

This amp at first was a decent amp with good quality, i hooked it up to my 2 12" mtx jackhammers and let me tell you, this system hit very hard. At 2 ohms impendence, the jackhammers can handle about 800 watts rms and this ken wood amp is rated at 900 watts x 1 channel @ 2 ohms. When i play a song that thumps and has either constant bass or deep bass the amp cuts out and it almost seems like it can't keep up with my subs. I read reviews on it and this kind of amp is NOTORIOUS for cutting out. Garbage. waiting for my Hifonics HFi2000D to ship.
