After installing this beast in my car it occured to me I could use this for welding. I am however using it to power my 12" L7 woofer. The bass is incredible and what a improvement over my last amp. This amp is now going in my new ride with my A/D/S 6 channel.

This is a very clean, well made amp. The features rock. It does run a little warm when cranked @ 2 ohms for a while but performs solid any ways. I have it pushing an SPG555 so I don't have to run it to the tilt to get it to hit. It's a little spendy but worth it. I'm glad I got it.

I have this amp powering 2 Boston Acoustics G5 1044 subs (10" dual voice coil) wired at 2 ohms for 500wts rms each.

This amp rocks. It makes my subs pound so hard. The day I installed them I had the gain set at 50% in the garage of my girlfriend's condo as I tuned the frequency. About a minute later she came down and told me I was shaking things in the kitchen 3 floors up!

The installation was very easy, and the adjustable sound level (RSL) knob makes it even easier to adjust on the fly as I change music types, ride with a passenger or pull into my neighborhood.

Only negative is the fan is a bit noisy. This is the first amp I've had with an internal fan so maybe comparatively it's not bad (and perhaps if it wasn't in an open hatch I wouldn't hear it)

Bought this amp from SonicElectronix and man i gotta say it plays way better than i expected. The rms is really on point from the specs. I have eight pyle pro pdmr5 mid range on each channel and wired to 4 ohms its loud for just one door. Each door has eight midrange on it, spl competition, and i rewired it to 1.7 and it nearly trippled the output. My ears were ringing and the q-tune is really good, it adds depth to the mids giving them the slight echo vs raw boring highs. The sensitivity makes it really loud if turned up all the way but not neccesary. I recomend it to be used for any system. it is a really good amp. forgot to mention i did bridge the doors at one time n you wont be sorry you bought it. one recomendation is to upgrade your charging system with the big three and i added a second battery because of the low current my alt. puts out. 14.7@40amps 200 amp alt. coming soon so it can goo even louder. when i had the one door open , i had crnk it for a demonstration and the guys listening said their ears were ringing and stepped back. GREAT buy, never shut down on me.
