Nice Amp

Have only owned it for a few days but for an early review it kicks! I have it pushing 2 Kenwood KFC-W3005 12"s and it kicks nice and hard. Everything sounds good and thumps hard! Going to try running both into bridged mode and see what the results are! All in all its a good amp for someone on a fixed budget and it impresses me and my friends.

Rawk

The new Boss amps Rawk. They are loud and clear. I have this amp running on two volfenhag 6x5 speakers. The best combo for the money. I turn heads everywhere.

Great Amp

This is a great amp, I run it in my car on Crunch 6x9s and peopel have come up to me asking what kinds of subs i'm running, and my 6x9s only cost 40 bucks! The amp is built well and pounds day and night. To say how reliable it is think about this. I had a small leak in my trunk durring the middle of winter, and I started my car, the speakers were pounding and when i popped my trunk to get my ice scrapper, my amp was 100% frosted over with ice crystals and everything, and it still ran like nothing was wrong, so what does that tell you about a Boss amp?
