This amp really works well, and supplies my sub plenty of power. The only complaint I have is heat. After running it at moderately loud levels for a little over an hour it went into a thermal protection mode where the sub seemed to skip and not hit almost every other note. I pulled off the highway to see what was up, and when touched it I almost burnt my fingers! I couldn't believe how hot it got! My next plan is to lift it up off the floor of my trunk by mounting it to some wood and putting spacers between it and the wood to allow some airflow underneath it. Hopefully that helps... The time it overheated was the only time so far. It seems to be fine on all short trips no matter how hard you push it. It barely even gets warm pushing it super hard on a 15 minute trip. Other than that though, this amp kicks butt!

Review written by Brandon from Granite City, IL
I had this amp wired up to a Jensen bandpass box with two Jensen subs(jsn bp212). It made the subs hit very hard. The problem I have run into is heat. The amp does not have a fan or any holes for the heat to escape. It would work great but, then it would go into a thermal protection mode.
Shipments were extremely fast. The products were packaged and shipped with care. The prices were the lowest I have ever seen. Sonic Electronix is the best electronics store that I have ever shopped at. I highly recommend this store to any one who wants high quality electronics at low prices.
