BIG ON POWER!!

I watch a video on the internet they were testing it with the SMD Dyno..the owners manual says you can't put this amp @ 0.5 ohms..but watching the video the guy tested at 0.5 ohms..''IT THROWS..2967 WATTS RMS @ 0.5 OHMS..almost 3000 watts!! man im getting this amp and for the price you cant beat it!!

great product

I have this amp pushing 4 kicker cvr 122 and it is very powerful. think i might have to upgrade my electrical system. this is a great amp and im very happy.

Great amp

man, i have this amp in my 2010 chrysler 300 on 4 M124 powerbass 12" subs. I had them wired at 1 ohm. I did'nt have nothing on the amp turned up. It was just to much power for my subs, so i wired them down to 4 ohms. Everything turned up half way. It is beating like crazy. In October i am getting some RE.I will tell you about it later. But, this is a good amp, it really has more power than it says.

Its great!

Got this to power one 12" L7 and it slams!!!! 8/8 its gr8 m8

Hard hitter

They are great they are one of the best amp's I ever had get you one , and you wont go wrong

pressure

Bang for the money. I got this thing pushing an dc xl 12 with a quarter turn on the gain. D******m. Between this one and the old model audiopipe made big improvements. impressive

apcl 1500

Lot more power then i thought it was going to have loud as f $@k...............

Powerful sound

This amp really has some punch! Hooked it up to two 10 inch subs in my truck and it really pounds nice solid bass. I'm amazed at sound quality and the ability to adjust bass with the supplied bass volume control. This is really a super amp.

awesome amp

The amp has lots of power for being only rated a 1500 watt.I am happy with sound it produces.I would recommend this amp to all my friends.

The best amp i ever had

I have this amp push 2 Powerbass M124 in a ported custom box at 2 omhs, with the gain and the bass half way. Man this amp got these woofers about to jump out the box. These is the best amp i have ever owned. Good buy. I need me a Alpine head unit now. This amp can really push 4 12" Kicker CVR'S easy.

Nice amp

i'm back. now i have some diamond audio 12's. i a ported box. these are some of the best subs i ever had. they are 600 rms each. i'm running them at 1 ohms, gain turned 1/2 up. my doors are about to come off it hits so hard. and the bd drive eq really got everything sounding nice. i have 10 highs ,and mids in the inside. this is a nice amp.

Little Beast

Its kinda crazy the amount of power this little amp can put out and its pretty efficient too I got a couple friends that are making me order them ones now they are all that impressed with the actual output and I really am too it exceeded my expectations. Crazy good for the price can't go wrong

Great amp for the money

I bought this amp to replace a Kenwood amp that I had been running for quite a while paired up with two Rockford Fosgate P3D4-10's in a large ATREND ported box bridged at 1 ohm. The Kenwood was getting old and isn't 1 ohm stable in the first place. The difference between these two amps is incredible! The notes are tight, the sound is very crisp and clear and the amp doesn't get hot. It gets warm to the touch, but I've never had it get hot. And I tend to push my system a little hard. Even if it is only two tens. They're insanely loud for a couple of tens. If you're looking for an amp that can make good power for under $200, this is the way to go, hands down! Love the amp

power

You will not beat the power for the price... Just up grade your battery to agm... I have two strapped

Great buy

I have this on a soundqubed hds312. People cant believe I only have one sub.It heats up but hasnt went into protect from it.

audiopipe disappointment

I have a 1000 watt, 4 channel audiopipe and I'm very disapointed with it. Every time I crank it up with a heavy metal band I like, on about the third or fourth song it starts overheating and it temporarily shuts down. I know its overheating because I touch the amp and its very hot. When I touch the rockford fosgate punch amp, which is connected to a 10 inch sub., it runs a lot cooler than the audiopipe. Again very disapointed. Hope they make them a lot better.

Awesome amplifier

This amp is super powerful I love it and the price was super great!!!!!

First purchase from SE!

I will come back and add my thoughts and opinions on the actual amplifier, i received the amplifier and after installing it i noticed it was a factory defect. The review is for SE, i contacted them and they responded in less then 24hours. I then shipped it back the next day and a day later i was notified a new one was on its way back, i have to say i was worried that the exchange was going to be a huge hassle but it could not have been better. Once i get it back i will report on actual amplifier but as far as SE, 10 out of 10!

Amazing!

My first Amplifier and Sub-woofer install. I would love to say it went smooth but every install will have its hiccups. I still need to upgrade my alternator and add an extra battery. I used a SMD DD-1 (Great tool) to help with tuning my Pioneer deck and amplifier through the amplifier. I have the gain on the amp a quarter the way up and this thing still pounds distortion free! Paired with a HDS3 12" Dual 2 ohm Sub-woofer from SoundQubed in a Atrend Box specifically tuned for that sub. Great Value for what you pay. This amp as i seen on youtube does Rated and even more at half ohm but i wont go down that low because i don't want to void my warranty so I'll just stick to 1ohm load :)!

Good Amp

great amp for the money pushes 2 audiopipe 10's great, hits hard

Great budget amp

Produces good power for the price. I watched the anp dyno and it exceeds its rating. Very satisfied. Runs my m6's perfectly

Best bang for the buck

This amp hits hard at 1 ohm. Fast shipping. Easy to tune and intall with its compact design. Exact design matching bass knob was a cool plus too

Satisfied-Big power

Went from an 1100w Rms 1 ohm stable Memphis amp to audiopipe. I actually like the look of this amp. Hooked up to one kicker l7 12, 2ohm dvc. Sub-1500w max/750w Rms. Wired at 1 ohm. This thing has some power so be sure to use a multimeter for adjusting gain to voltage/rms watts of your sub/subs/head unit. MORE THAN ENOUGH power for MY setup. Gain knob also works well so far. So far the power of this amp beats the Memphis amp I had. Shipping was fast and problem free. Thanks a ton sonic electronix! 😀

audiopipe apcl1500

This is a great amp set your gains with smd I have it on 12 in sub in a 2012 gmc acadi it has a 180 amp alternator so volts are great I would recommend this amp.

apcl15001d

Good budget amp. Really brings some serious power bumps my cvx 15 really nice, just wish it would have true wire size for inputs.instead of 4 ga should have 1/0. But really good amp no problems and i have been running it hard from day one

Round two!

Had this amp for 8 months and it was very powerful and sounded good but went into protect for no apparent reason. Sonic was great though and sent out a new replacement ASAP. New one is working perfect so far. Not thrilled about the looks but these amps are very hard to beat for the money. I believe the 1st one was just a bad apple. I don't expect this one to fail. It was the 1st amp that ever failed me in nearly 30 years of having systems. Hopefully the last.

Good amp

I would highly recommend this amp. It's under 200 and it's a good amp I was surprised by the power.

Love the audiopipe 1500d.1

Love sonic, they always take great care of their customers. As far as the audio pipe 1500, great power for a great price.what more can u ask for

Great amp for the price!

Great budget amp. I haven't had any problem with any of mine. Set your gains properly and you will be happy. I have 4 of them pushing 4 15 inch subs and I couldn't be happier. I also have 1 running 2 15's. Never got hot on me. Not one problem. They're a little power hungry but with a few electrical upgrades they shine. I fully recommend this amp.

Best budget amp available.

Best budget amp available. Excellent power and sounds great. I have and had alot of expensive, high end amplifiers and this audiopipe hangs right in there with them. I only question their durability. My 1st one started smoking after 4 months. Havent had any issues yet with my second one. I would def purchase if your on a budget. Just make sure your using 4 guage power and ground and set your gain correctly. Im running mine on 2 sundown sa12d4 rev 3s @ 1ohm and my gain isnt even a quarter of the way up and my subs are moving big time. They are loud and sound clean, no distortion at all.

Audiopipe APCL

I recommend this amp to true bass heads. This amp will show you what you've been missing. I am pushing two type r 15 dvc 2 at two ohms. The amps gain is halfway up and it's plenty. Before this amp I was running a 5000 watt Anarchy amp and that was beefy. But this slaps. I bought 2. Only negative is it's a light dimmer. So now it's time to upgrade to a 2nd battery and that were the bass is going to be hardest.

awsome amp! Good for the money.

Great operarion, decent look and can be strapped. Only complaint is that the power and speaker inputs are philips screws instead of alen.

Beastly amp

The Audiopipe APCL-15001D Is toHertz HX 250D sub. I will be putting it on two. I wouId give it more stars, but I have not had time to fully test its capabilities. The 1 draw back is, the supplied Fuse holder is HUUUGE. It creates mounting issues all by itself.

By Marc on June 4, 2016 Verified purchase

Wow, Very impressive,

I purchased this amp to replace my Sundown saz 1200d amp while it was being repaired and to use it as a temp replacement. But let me tell you, this amp is the shiznit. I always use high end car audio equipment in my vehicles but this audiopipe amp kicks ass. It def puts out the power if you use it correctly. The sq is unbelievable for a 150.00 budget amp. If it holds up and dosent fall apart or burn up, it will be one of my top 5 amp purchases of all time. I highly recommend this amplifier. Dont flinch because it says audiopipe. Its a little baddass amplifier. I might even purchase another.

great price for a great amp

Its great but once I seen mine, it had corrosion on the power input

apcl15001d

Good budget amp. Really brings some serious power bumps my cvx 15 really nice, just wish it would have true wire size for inputs.instead of 4 ga should have 1/0. But really good amp no problems and i have been running it hard from day one

audiopipe

I couldnt have purchased a better amp. this amp has exceeded my expectations. IM very impressed with the amount of power it produces. Even with it being turned just about all the way down, it makes my subs rumble just the way i like it. I seriously recommed this amp to anyone with 12'' subs.

power power power

This amp has plenty of headroom when you want to feed your bass needs if you have drivers that cant handle this kind of power you will definitely want to take time to have your system tuned properly or you will be buying new drivers soon after your purchase. This audiopipe 1500 does allmost all of its rated power but beware its very power hungry a better battery a stronger alternator a good supply of power is needed or you wont get what this amp wants to give you. If you want the best bang for your buck don't think about it do it do it do it.

Great Amp!!

Bought to go with my 12s and from what i saw online it is an amazing amp for the price. Anyone looking into buying a budget amp needs this!

Solid amp but needs better cooling.

Strong amp. Good bang for your buck. Liked the older model AP15001D better. This model gets hot and goes into protect even only running at 1 ohm with adequate electrical to back it. Adding a fan fixes the issue, but I think they could have done a better job on tooling the new heat sink, although it looks great.

I would recommend this amp for the budget minded basshead if you don't mind having to add a fan.

Pros: solid amp, does close to rated, very budget friendly

Cons: only the overheating issue

Good amp, lowsy customer service

I really liked this amp. The adjustable freq on the bass boost made for some awesome sound. Drove the NVX I had it hooked to beautifully. After only two months it went into protect and wouldnt come out. Sadly I made the mistake of not buying from Sonic. The company only handles returns for 30 days. I had to deal with Audiopipe.
After waiting a week for customer service to get back to me(apparently they only have one and he was on vacation), I received a series of hoops to jump through and was then informed I would need to pay shipping BOTH ways. With the insurance to cover the cost of the amp, packaging (didn't have any lying around) this came out to almost $70. Half of what I paid for it.
Buy it from Sonic. They handle returns for a year which is how long most companies warranty their product anyway. Learn from my mistake, and my headache.

AP is the best!!

Very powerful amp! Ordered for my BD3 12 and it pushes it like its nothing. Amp is turned down under halfway. Going to order another BD3 12 to run on this amp, it should push both no problem at all! For the price audiopipe is the way to go.

Meh

Had to send the first unit back. It was shutting off and going into protect mode. Second one overheats on occasion especially at competitions. Good solid power but reliability is meh.
