Customer Testimonial

I have been more than happy with my past few purchases since finding your site. Shipping has been extremely fast and packed well. When I've called before I purchased I received great service and emails were answered in the same manner. Thank you everyone that helped me so far Im on my second system.

I have this amp hooked up to my full sound speakers & it really makes them sound great. Big bang for the buck that's for sure. This amp is running my 6x9s & a set of 6.5 in door speakers & i love it. If you already have subs hooked up & you are needing a good full range amp like i did i say this is a must buy.

I've had this amp for more than a few months and I know this is a common say but WOW! it took some good patience to tune the amp correctly to my speakers but it was worth it! I'm running Pionner A-series 6.5's and 6 x 8's thru this and people either compliment me on how clear it is or complain to me on how loud! Though, it is true Boss does really overrate their amps, this one is a big change, If ur looking for this amp for LPF or even full range, I have to admit its not the best BUT if ur looking for SCREAMIN mids and highs to where u can feel the snare drum in ur chest and highs are SO loud that u cant hear the person next to you, this amp is for you! this amp is reliable, has great features and most important VERY budget friendly! (I was 17 when i got this with no job, just to give u guys an idea). Would recommend this amp!
