i owned this amp last year and still working like new. It gives you a truly 1,100 wts total, so you better take it seriously with one sub like the 12' l5 or l7.

This amp is a beast has plenty of power to pick up some 15's and pounds hard even though it runs a little hot it never shuts down. This is like the Ferrari of amps. Highly recommend this amp and you cant beat this price.
