Why Choose Kicker Amplifiers:

Kicker Always Exceeds Rated Power

Kicker Performance Audio has been around since 1980 and has been producing amazing products since then. Kicker’s drive to consistently produce products that not only are great but also push the standards of the car audio industry is very apparent in all series of their amplifiers. All Kicker amplifiers are CEA-206 Compliant, assuring you are receiving a continuous certified RMS power rating. Kicker will always exceed the rated power because Kicker is notorious for under rating their amplifiers. So really you will be getting more power than you actually pay for, which is not true for other lower end performance amplifiers that generally over rate their amplifiers. Kicker amplifiers will provide a choice of three automatic turn-on modes; remote, DC offset, or signal sense, which make then compatible with any car audio system. Along with their high-density convection heat sink for extreme heat dissipation and high efficiency MOSFET power supply, Kickers amplifiers are great way to go when selecting the perfect amplifier for your car audio system.

Good Amp

I've had this Kicker amp powering 2 MTX thunder squares for a couple months now, and this amp is the real thing. No matter how long i have my radio blasting this amp has never gone into protection mode or overheated, I would definitely recommend this amp.

Its Kicker enough said!!!

Wow!! Thats all i can say. I had the 750.1 and I thought it was punishing but now i compare that to 6x9's lol. You dont know what bass really feels like till you consider having to use ear plugs when the volume is at 19!! I did the big three upgrade and extra battery with a pair of kicker solo classics all from sonic and i spent maybe $600 total can't beat it. To me Kicker products are top of the line and this amp can take it and does not get hot. If your considering this amp its a purchase well worth investing in. Just remember that amps or like subs if u under power them you wont be happy with them and they wont be happy with you. If you take the time and finances to spend on a good quality amp take time to make sure you send it the power it really need to give you the umph your really lookin for!! LIVIN LOUD!!!

kicker zx1500.1

Great amp, I used this to power my single Kicker Solo-Baric L7 wired at 2-ohms. Earthshaking power! Lives up to its rated RMS power. It does not overheat at all even in an enclosed space with no airflow. Pretty amazing!

Dislike

I bought two 12" Solo Barics to go with the zx1500.1 but after bumping it continuously it just gave up. I sent it back to kicker to learn it had some drivers burnt out and cost me about $90 parts n labor. I'm still bumping it but since I got it under the seat it might be overheating or maybe kicker amps just suck. Solo baric woofers are champs though!
