Why Choose Kicker Amplifiers:

Kicker Always Exceeds Rated Power

Kicker Performance Audio has been around since 1980 and has been producing amazing products since then. Kicker’s drive to consistently produce products that not only are great but also push the standards of the car audio industry is very apparent in all series of their amplifiers. All Kicker amplifiers are CEA-206 Compliant, assuring you are receiving a continuous certified RMS power rating. Kicker will always exceed the rated power because Kicker is notorious for under rating their amplifiers. So really you will be getting more power than you actually pay for, which is not true for other lower end performance amplifiers that generally over rate their amplifiers. Kicker amplifiers will provide a choice of three automatic turn-on modes; remote, DC offset, or signal sense, which make then compatible with any car audio system. Along with their high-density convection heat sink for extreme heat dissipation and high efficiency MOSFET power supply, Kickers amplifiers are great way to go when selecting the perfect amplifier for your car audio system.

Kicker FIT Fail Safe Integration Technology

Kicker Fail Safe Technology (FIT):

Kicker has manufactured a new Fail-Safe Integration (FIT) technology into all of their amplifiers. The FIT technology uses isolated differential inputs in order to reject noise or electrical interferences, caused by engines, alternators or any other audio or video component throughout your vehicle. The differential inputs will use a muting circuit that will block out any additional noise that may stream down the line. The FIT technology will help created the cleanest and purest sound possible for any audio system. The Kicker FIT technology is setting the standard for high quality sound.

If you are looking for a raw power amp this is for you. Rated at 2500watts is simply an understatement, my amp arrived with a birth sheet reading 2870watts. I am running two 10" pioneer priemer pro series dual 2ohm subwoofers in a custom ported box. Have a look on youtube to see this amp pounding (RobHoffmann20). Also plan on adding a high current alternator and possibly a second battery to your system. Keep the bass pounding!

This amp is so powerful. Only complaint is that capacitor is a 30 farad and it is sucked dry by amp. Amp draw is 186 amps so must upgrade alternator just incase you want one of these!!!

This amp is a true monster! I started with the zx1000 and then went to the zx1500. Now I'm up to the zx2500 and this is where it will end! 3 solobaric classics are pounding hard. No complaints at all. I'm currently not running at the correct ohm load which means this amp has room to grow.

Word of caution: This amp is truly not got the weak. It requires zero gauge wire and an extra battery. Forget about adding a cap. That won't get it done.

I love this amp and can't wait to unlock the full potential.
