best value

I have 2 12 inch cerwin vega 1500 watt speakers and this boss amp is pushing them like they were made for each other

cheaper elsewhere

Although I have switched to Fosgate since purchasing this, I really cant complain. I used it to power a 122x MOFO and it sounded great. It does not produce anywhere near the rated wattage so dont expect it to. Emblem makes it look pretty silly but its nice and heavy and if I had to guess I would say it probably produces 400rms. Fits 4 gauge wire

It is alright!

It is a really great amp for the price, and it is also not only have somewhat durability but the features of this amp is great. It came in and i had it for about a month and i already overloaded the amp. I had 2 Audiobahn A1206 12s hooked up and it made them slam. One of the best normal bass hitting amp you could find unless you do want to go big. i recommend it, just waiting on the new one to come in.

Pretty damn powerful

Although I am extremely skeptical about the 3000 watt max, I can feel the rms watts doing their business. Pretty boxy boring design but sometimes I don't mind a company saving money on the componets (what really matters) by cutting back on design. Wish it didn't have such a cheesy "Boss" name plate on the front.

Protection system is AWESOME

Blew the amp fuses the first time hooking the amp to my battery. MY bad. There's no way i should've, but i guess i was too excited to noticed. :( Mistakenly hooked positive to negative and negative to positive on the amp. rewired quickly, and put in the spare fuses that comes with and it worked like nothing happen.

I had this powering a BOSS P126DVC, all the way! And shortly added another one. I'm debating on another one; to powered each sub separately. (One sub runs at 2000ish RMS, and the amp at most can only put out 3000 RMS running at 2 ohms.) so its only runnong both subs at half.
I have noticed the amp turn off... if listing to real heavy nonstop bass after 30-45mins. Scared me the first time, thought I blew a sub or the amp. Turns out the thermal protection works wonders. Again that's because I'm running it to its maxed settings on two subs that the amp can only truly power one of.

2 Months of constant use, hour drives too!
