This is by far the best amp i have ever owned and i have had quite a few. This bad boy fried the coil of my kicker l7 15inch sub the first day i installed it. i now have it playing 2 sony xplode 15 subs in a ported box and this thing hits soooo hard. My neighbours called the cops for me complaining everything in their house was shaking. I strongly recomend this amp if u are looking for the best and willing to forget the rest. Sonic you guys are the best. PS just bought a capacitor from this site cause this bad boy needs more juice.

SPL GRLA 5500/1D Amplifier , is of the highest quality that is compensated by the price! In fact, very good the price, very very good the product! I have mounted an SPL for to drive two subwoofers TC SOUNDS and managed to keep the current to 0.5 ohms. Is astonishing! I will buy other because I think it's a product that is worth having! is a "small explosive housing!".....
