had this model on 2 15" Kicker comps something like 4-500 watts rms overheated it a few times due to wiring them at 2 ohms and finally fried it out one day- my fault, but other than that it was awesome- got a LITTLE warm on real hot days pounding but it would usually shut itself down after it cooled for bout 45 sec. I replaced it with a Kenwood KAC-9152 1800 watt amp which I used till I blew the kickers- got 2 power acoustik 15" fubars wired at 1 ohm- they bumped HARD... but they clipped due to the load of a 2000 watt rms demand- I did not like the one-sided wiring configuration they say it's for convenience but it was more of a pain in my opinion, sorta limits wiring options in tight spots... All in all they are great amps in my opinion- they put out what they SAY they put out they don't B/S you like some cheaper amp brands

I bought this sub because my old 500w sub blew. I didn't know too much about amplifiers, but I think I made a good choice. This amp really brought my subs to life. Even at 150w rms to each sub, they still sounded great. The amp stays cool all day, never had a single problem with it, and it's pretty user friendly. Great quality from Kenwood.

A Friend of mine owns this amp, Powering Two, KFC-W3009's (Kenwood 10's), In his Suburban, in a sealed enclosure. He purchased them as a matched set, one of these whole packedged deals from B*** B**, Besides overpaying them, In my opinion I don't think it's powerful enough for such a big truck, I would say that this amp would be great for someone looking for a little kick, in a sport compact. What I can say is that this amp is extremely reliable it has never overheated on him. Someone mentioned having problems with blowing fuses, I would not recommend cutting out the fuse as this person did. Try a fuse with a higher rating, and see if it still happens.
