I have had this amp in my audi for 3 years now it powers 2 sets of polk momos and a memphis mojo 10 inch sub, and i could not be happier with this amp it sounds much better the the mtx thunder 5 channel in my wifes car. the only down side is that it is a little pricey, and i don't like how you have to buy a specail adapter for the sub channel.

This is an amazing amp but its not intended for raw power. I would suggest getting a bigger amp for such a job. I own this amp and a JL Audio 1000/1. NO COMPARISON! I had a MCD-1500 and sold it to a buddy and bought the memphis belle MCH-1300. But Just to let you know how good they are power wise. My 1000/1 would exceptionally louder and clearer than the MCD-1500.

In this day and age of car amplifiers, no company has gotten closer to a perfect 5 channel amp than Memphis. The Belle is the one to look for when you want teeth chattering bass and 4 channels of power. The sub channel is stable down to 1 ohm and throws out an astonishing 1100wrms. And those are real watts, not overbloated figures given out by the less superior brands. But the goodness doesn't stop there: it has four other channels to drive the rest of your speakers, whether you want to go active or just take the simpler route. No amps are perfect, however, and this one isn't either. The only thing that would have perfected this would be if the crossovers were bandpassable, for it would truly then be perfect, but I'm not complaining. I used this in my show car because it simplified the wiring and was good looking at the same time! If you have the money, get this amp for it is the last and only one you will ever need.
