So this is kind of late, seeing that this amp has been discontinued and you can no longer buy this model, but I love talking this one up that much. I use to work at a memphis audio authorized dealer and this is the amp that we used more than anything else. For the amount of value you get out of this amp you can't find a single 1000w monoblock that compares. Memphis is known to throw more than expected with their products and this amp is one to prove that this company doesn't take short cuts. I ran this on a single mojo 12, multiple sets of memphis PR series woofers, two C3 series woofers, and countless other setups that wired to one ohm and this amp pushed anything I threw at it without breaking a sweat. I HIGHLY recommend if you have a local dealer still sitting on one of these, or if you can find one online somewhere BUY IT, because this is a solid amp well worth the money. Also it looks great and easy to wire up.

I have this pushing a single Alpine Type R 12" at 2ohm in tuned custom enclosure, full Memphis Power Reference Coax speakers in all doors powered by M Class 200W multi-channel, so my focus is SQ more than SPL. Gotta say this amp slams my sub perfectly at 600W. If I want to show off I have plenty of headroom to turn heads.

Great value for the money

Holy crap this amp is wild. It is the strongest and hardest hitting amp I have ever used. This thing also has the cleanest sound even when it is turned all the way up. The amp is under rated so you do not need to max anything out, It will push anything you got without a problem. I love this thing. I highly recommend this amp, you will be amazed at it raw clean power and also to boot this amp does not get hot so it will last.
