I have this amp powering a JBL GTO804 in a sealed box in the trunk of my '07 Honda Accord EX. I can't believe how much clean bass this tiny amp can put out without overheating. It won't rattle your car apart, but it definately puts out 150 watts like the box says.

Bought this amp to hook up to my 12in kenwood sub, works great. Hits hard and gives your car a nice thump. Thinking about buying another one to put another sub in my trunk.

My original setup was an alpine cda105 head unit and alpine sps6.2 components. The head unit just didn't have enough, so i bought this amp to run the components. I am amazed at the performance!!! I have been installing systems for 15 yrs, and am amazed at the clarity this amp brought to my speakers! I highly recommend!
