You will not be able to find a better amp than this epic Beast for the price! I have it powering 2 Powerbass L-104D 10" Subwoofers in a sealed box wired in parallel for a 1 ohm load and the amp barely gets warm. I've heard that it was stable down to .5 ohm (which I don't doubt)! I would highly suggest a 170amp alternator or better for this power house. With my stock alt, my headlights dim and batt gauge goes crazy when I push it hard. I got a 220amp alternator on the way. Anyway, love the look of it, pounds hard, and couldn't be more pleased with it!

April 17, 2012 Best Amp Ever! PowerBass ASA 1000.1Dx

This is an amazing amp. I originally had it running against two Infinity Kappa Perfect 12d VQ subs in a 1ohm load. This proved to be TOO much power for the subs as they "knocked" and goes to show that its is WAY underrated. It also ran barely warm, I would say cool in a 1ohm load too. AMAZING. I now run it at 4ohms each and they are still louder than anything I have heard before. Truly exceptional.

I have this amp in my girlfriends car pushing a single 55 pound SoundStream Tarantula 12inch 900w RMS sub in a 9 cubic foot box running at 1ohm. Let me tell you her system will hurt you!! this amp supply's the full 1000W rms and keeps pretty cool over a period of playing time. Just make sure your vehicle has the power to power this beast, other wise it will trip the amp and you will have to turn it down. It's a really clean amp, actually if you look at the stats compared to Rockford Fosgate 1000w amp the PowerBass is cleaner ;)

I have one of these pushing a 3xl 10" Powerbass Subwoofer which is rated at 750 RMS, my truck alternator is only producing 80 amps, and this amp can pull 150 amps tops. i just got my sub through the break in period and have the amp turned up all the way (Which is about 2/3 because of the deficit of amps from the alt) and my system hits harder than my old (2) 12" Kicker comps. Kicker has NOTHING on Powerbass.
