I bought this amp in December and its powering 4 infinity 692.9i 6x9s and 2 39.2cf 31/2s. Ive had it on full range and get incredible sound reproduction. Ive have had it on high pass as well with the recent addition of my alpine mrpm500 and ppi pcx 124 single 12" and the highs are incredible. I own a 06 charger and I mounted the pdx4.100 upside down in the rear deck 8" sub cut out and it looks perfectly at home there. Awesome amp, definitely worth the money. Even in the Florida heat, in a trunk it still powers everything great.

I search around for months, talked to dozens of people, and looked hundreds of amps...and this is the 2nd best amp I've found, the only amp that takes this amp down is the MTX Thunder Elite 1004, and the 604 elite is the equiv of this amp.

this amp, i got it last week, hooked it up a few days ago, even though i was still waiting for some more parts, new speakers primarily, but i hooked it up anyhow and tweaked around with it to see what it could do on my old speakers and with in the first day..it completely blew my rare speakers :-s

the rating on this amp is amazing, 150 is the nominal RMS, i had it only about 60% on the gains when the old speakers blew, and only about 50% on the head unit. the sheet that came with them, stated 180 watts RMS at 4 ohm, was tested stable back when it was packaged. mine was packaged almost 2 years ago, but none the less, damn good amp.

keep in mind that the possible peaks per channel can reach as high as 216 watts. At 60 amps at 14.4 volts. You'll be hard pressed to find a better amp, and the 2 ohm 4 ohm ratings are amazing, the ONLY amp on the market that even offers that, and in such a small footprint.

I took off some because I felt there could of been more tweaking on the knobs that could have been added, granted the head unit will do most of that in my set up, but a 3-band equalizer will really not do this justice. the lay out of the inputs is designed not for just speakers but for any set up, so keep in mind your wired and what they are when you install them, they are marked as channels, not rear front, left and right as normal 4 channels are.. I managed to mix up all my channels and have a hell of a time figuring them out :P

I have this amp running 2 type S 6.5's in the front and 2 type r 6.5's in the rear doors and they sound crystal clear... The main reason to buy this amp is because it's class d which means it's more efficient and gives your vehicle's electrical system less strain while supplying more power to your speakers. No brainer purchase.
