sound great!!!

I recomend this amp to everyone, sound good, good quality, good price

good compact amp

I bought this amp to power 2 10" jbl gt500 sub's. Clean and solid power! Only downside is of you push this amp to the max like I did with the jbl sub's, safety feature kicks it off and turns back on from pushing it really hard. Had to turn bass level down on my Kenwood head unit to prevent this. However, this amp rocks!

Good Amp so far

I use this amp with a 12" Rockford Fosgate P2D4 and it works great. I bought a custom sub box from Subthump for my Camaro. Great quality. Highly Recommend

Great value

This amp is a great value it performs great and has a clean crisp sound . I am truly impressed with it . My only complaint would be that the low pass filter control isn't labeled as precise as I would have liked but overall a great product

very impressive

as a former car audio installer and lifetime car audio enthusiast, i must say this amp is very impressive. gain and bass boost turned down all the way and my good Polk sub can hardly handle it. and it sounds amazing. needless to say i will be replacing my sub soon, probably with two as this amp can handle a lot. JBL is a great brand, the only i will buy from now on, i have had such good luck with their products.

Lots o Power

Purchased in a kit with amp kit and JBL S3 sub. Amp runs cool and pushes sub good. Standard features..only want would be remote gain but a good LOC will get you control. Packs a big punch with a small footprint. Be sure you set your input setting correctly.
