I would definately recommend this amp for anyone looking for clear sound on a budget. You cant beat this is for the price. I have two channels powering four re audios 5.25's and the other two channels powering two 8" audioque subwoofers. I wasnt even planning on keeping the subwoofers hooked up to it i was just playing around but it sounded surprisingly good and loud so i decided to keep it to save for space (trunk space is limited in a mustang convertible).



*** dont hesitate to buy this amp because of the price, it is high quality and will not dissapoint,

I Love RE Audio Products. this lil amp puts out all of the power it stats at rms. I have 8 5 1/4" re speakers with other highs an mids also an a RE XXX 12 for now. I've owned other RE subs an speakers and for the money its well worth it an the Quality is comparable to JL or Fosgate Power series for so much less cost.

i bought this amp to run a set of Pioneer stage 4 components in the front of my H2 as a bandaid untill i could get somthinng "better", but after hooking it up and getting setting it all up i realized this is the only amp i really need. i was suprised by the sound quality this thing put out and was very happy with the power. i have a couple DD Z1 amps powering a few 15's and my front stage keeps up pretty well. i would buy another one
