I wasn't expecting this amp to do what it does in my car. i have it wired to 2 memphis mojo tens and it slams pretty good. its fault however is the efficiency, if you do not plan on upgrading your charging system do not buy this amp! I have a stinger dry cell and a 1farad cap with 4gauge memphis wire(which is VERY good wire) and i still have slight voltage drops. if you just plan on hooking this up to an all stock charging system you are looking at possibly blowing something, also if you plan on running it at anything but 1ohm it drops the efficiency. but if you have the will to upgrade your charging a little then don't be afraid this amp puts out some serious power for the dollar.

This is my second amp from the Hifonics family. The first amp was the 1200 D model and it lasted for 3 years with no problems. This 1600 D model is more powerful no doubt and it gives out nice clean power and never seems like its straining to push my 2 12" alpine type R subs.
