Customer Testimonial

Harrison was very helpful. He took the time to fix my problem, but also to look up my order information, as I had lost it. I was very satisfied with my experience with Harold and with Sonic Electronics

It's a nice amp but way overrated, only pushing about 600-700w at 4 ohm. I have 2 10" alpine type R and thought for the price I might get lucky but guess not... it also goes into protection mode quickly, can't really push it or it goes out bc of it. It u want a cheap amp and gonna run 500w or less it should work well but other than that nope.

Been selling and installing car audio for 10 years. I give everything a fair chance and do not buy into people talking down about cheap products until i try it myself. This amp is very over rated, but it pushes subs pretty well. It probably puts out about 1000W RMS @ 1 ohm. MAX power ratings dont mean anything. I have used Boss products a lot in the past and their amps are better products than the subs by far. If youre looking for a cheap amp that will last and put out 800-1000RMS @ 1OHM, i would recommend this, but dont expect it to put out "3500 watts @ 1 ohm" or even "1250 watts @ 4ohms". Just not gonna happen.

I got this thing hooked up to 4 infinity 12's and this thing pushes them hella hard. I recommend it! It has lots of power and it barely heats up, nice amp pushes any subs if it pushes 4 12 (300 rms each) is can push yours too
