great for big, small power

The following review is for 08ZX400.1, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

rated well above it's advertised power, develops the sound of the pioneer ts sw251 i have it hooked up to very well. breathes very well, and was easily concealed in my tundra.

More power then Expected!!

This amp blew me away. i've tried 3 different amps in my car rated more then this amp, but this amp ate them alive as soon as i turned my music up the first time... kicker says 400 watts peak but they underated it, so it is actually putting out 450 - 500 watts... so just be careful with the gain... it also comes with a remote gain control which comes very handy in quick change. it also has a sub sonic filter which will remove frequencies that are not hearable by the human ear which will give ur subs a longer life and also helps port tunning. what i thought was VERY VERY sleek was that all 3 knobs for gain, filter, and boost are right on top and very easy accisible.. so u dont need a screw driver and a flash light and bend all the way down to c what u are doing... its right on top! it is also very energy efficent, and does not heat too much easirly...

A Good Buy

The following review is for 08ZX400.1, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

This is my first amp, i have it powering 2 Kicker CVR 10's. It has no problem running them, doesn't get hot what so ever. About 2 months after the install, i noticed a very low pitch screaming noise coming from it. It is mounted about 4ft away from me and i have very good hearing, but the amp still works just fine and it only happens sometimes. Don't be alarmed because i have a truck that is lifted and the suspension is very stiff and the truck takes a pounding so that might be the problem I'm not sure.

Pros: Mine came from Kicker rated at 485 watts so 85 free watts works for me, very easy to follow hook up.

Cons: None that i know of, just for what i wrote up top but then again it could be because of the truck.

kicker 400

had this guy about two weeks now. hooked up to a 10 solobaric and this thing KICKS. Enough power to knock my door handles off, and i have to adjust my rear view mirror every 2 minutes. Wont rattle the car next to you badly, but if you looking to add some killer bass, i highly recommend. Also, says its rated 400 rms but mine came with a certificate rated at 490!!! thats almost another 100 watts free!

Awesome amp!

The following review is for 08ZX400.1, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

This is a great amp. It puts out more power than it is actually rated for. I like how solid this amp is, don't let the size fool you, this thing packs a big punch. Easily one of the best amps i have ever bought. I am powering a Boston Acoustics G3 (which i also bought from sonic) with this amp and i don't have to turn the gain up past half to be loud as hell. This thing doesn't even come close to heating up either. I am sure this amp will take hours of abuse before it even gets close to hot. I would definitely recommend this amp if you are powering anything from 200 to 500 rms. Kicker is simply the way to go.

Big power, small package

I had this amp hooked to 2 CVR 12's. it was only pushing them to half of their RMS, but they still slammed. Made my tunk rattle so bad it actually broke off a peice of panneling. I live in Hawaii and it gets hot here and iv run this amp most of the day before and it barely even heated up. And the remote gain control is really handy as well.

awesome

This amp pushes my subs awesome. Thats really all I can say. Hook was easy and bass remote helps out a ton. Get this if you looking for a 400 watt amp.

Great little Amp

Awesome little amp, my birth sheet says 550 watts. You always get more than you pay for with kicker. Easy to hide and pushes 2 tens or 1 fifteen perfectly.

Excellent product from a superb online retailer!

The following review is for 08ZX400.1, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

I recently purchased this kicker amp and could not be happier. I have had zero problems and it powers my 2 ten inch subs perfectly. Sonicelectronix had an excellent price, great service and very fast shipping. I highly recommend kicker products and sonicelectronix to everyone looking for car audio!

Kicker's the way to go

Purchased this a few weeks ago and have been very satisfied with it. I have it powering Kicker dcvr12" and it shakes my car. Mine came rated at 482 Max Watts which comes in use when powering my subs. I might be upgrading to the 750.1 amp in the future to get better performance out of my subs. I push this amp well over the RMS for an extended period of time and this amp can handle it without clicking off or getting real hot. I am very satisfied with this product and will be a Kicker user for life (as should you)

Perfect Amp

This amp is a perfect amp. I have it powering a dc sound lab lvl 2 12 subwoofer and this pounds in a ported box. The birth sheet the amp came with says it is rated at 500 watts so I got 100 watts free. It doesn't get hot one bit.

Great amp for the money

I bought this amp to push a 10" kicker sub in my Expedition and never have to even heat it up to feel plenty of bass. Definitely recommend it!

Great Lil Amp!

This thing is very small which makes it very easy to install just about anywhere. .It has enough power the push a Kicker L5 10". Let me just say it pounds!! And it stays cool all day long.

great amp so far

this amp has been nothing but good. i have my cvr12 hooked up to it and it pushes the heck out of it for long periods of time with out even being noticeably warm. it is small which is great,and it still packs the power. RECOMMEND this if you have just 1 4ohm cvr, 2 ohm load, it does great.
