Great amp

Does rated power, Using it in a daily driver that does over 148+ on the 2010 TL on music. Vocals sound crisp and clean. Mid bass is smooth and does not distort(you must do all the tuning yourself of course, i left my amps settings flat besides slightly adjusting gain and used my decks cross overs and frequency controls to achieve best sound)

Great amp for the money, doesn't get hot unless you allow allot of bass through to the speakers.

Awesome-Sauce

All i can say is that like you, I searched and searched for a decent amp at about $150. This thing is way better than the money I paid. It's amazing!! The sound quality is crisp and clear (tested at 10,000Khz - 22Hz, running 4Ga wire). It never gets hot as I push it around mid-range on all settings. Bass with a single 10" subwoofer is excellent. I have a Scion xB and it really fills the box nicely. I also have it pushing a 6 1/2 component system, which also is awesome-sauce. Trust me people, I looked all over the place for a deal (steal) and THIS IS IT!!!

MB Quart DSC 480

i would recommend this product to anyone looking for a 4 channel amp. i use it with 6.5" eclipse speakers and components along with a directed amp for my 10" sub woofer. i originally had an eclipse 4 channel that didn't work well and i had to kill the car and start it up again to get the amp to work again. after switching to the MB Quart i have more clear and if desired more volume than the eclipse was providing. i think it is a great deal for the money. my only problem with it is the design, i store it under the seat and it sticks out into the area where my backseat passengers have to have their feet on it, normally not much of an issue, they are quite durable, but there are connections that make it a bit less desired. i combated that issue by placing the all weather mat over part of the amp and covering the connections.

Great Amp

This is a great amp for the money, I replaced a low end 5 Channel amp. I'm running 4 Focal 5X8 speakers (4 ohm) in high bypass mode and they sound great. The amp gets a little warm, but nothing to be concerned about. I would definitely recommend this amp, you will not be disappointed. Not the high end/cost of others, but you will be hard pressed to find a better value for the money. As an added bonus, it looks great.

works well

I got this amp 6 months ago, its driving one 10" Kicker CVR, and a pair of components up front. The components are 6.5" Alpine type-x reference speakers. with a Kenwood KDC-x794 as the headunit.

My first impression of the amp, looks good, simple and the price was right. I can't say that its necessarily the amp, but I will say that I expected the system to be a little louder.

That said, the system sounds great...good balance with rich sound. the amp has never gone into protect or anything and has always worked as it should.

They say power is power...so I would be interested to see if a more expensive amp with the same rating sounded louder/better...meaning im curious as to if the amp puts out what they say it does.

All in all im pleased with the purchase

solid amp

I love the way this amp pumps out the low end bass, however this beast is super power hungery!!! You'll need a high end Alt on your car, at least 120 amps or better to see this amps full output. If you plan to upgrade your cars electrical system this amp will blow your mind! It is well worth the money and I will buy again.

Best 4 channel for the price!

Have this running Kappa 6x9's and an RE Audio RE10 and sounds wonderful. Was previously running the kappa's with a 2 channel pioneer amp, with costs exactly the same from this site, but sounds much better! The amp is easy to use and has all the option I needed. Like others have said, it does run a bit warm, but no problems so far in these few months.

well worth it.....

Great amp for the price. Running a set of phoenix gold 6-1/2" components off the front and an infinity 10" off the rear (3&4 bridged) , Lots of power and good clean sound.
Definitely recommend this amp for smaller systems.

Fantastic amp for the money

This is a very nice amp for the money. Very clean sound. Runs at rated power. I have used much more expensive amps that were not as nice as this one. It does not get too hot even when running at near full volume. I was listening to music at 30 (on 35 scale) for an hour and it was just warm.

Awesome amp for the price!

Been running this amp in my G35 for two weeks now and I am nothing short of amazed. I am powering a set of Alpine type-S components and a pair of type S coaxial. I have yet to be able to turn this thing up to full power without my ears feeling like they are going to bleed. No matter how loud I go, this thing doesn't clip or distort, and the sound is CLEAN. My installer even said this was the cleanest-sounding setup he had ever heard.

Great Amp for Money - Powerful

Bought to power a pair of components and a 15" Dayton Ref HO Sub. This amp can more than hold its own. It is wired to run 2ohm stereo channels 1+2 and bridged 3+4 for the sub. The amp doesn't struggle with this at all and delivers plenty of loud and clean power with great control over my sub. I am returning to the car audio hobby after a long break (10+ years)....I am surprised an amp this good can now be bought for such little money. Even the amp cosmetics are really nice and the terminals are of high quality. Previously I had only known MB Quart as a speaker company but they are now clearly selling a high quality amplifier for an amazing price. Great amp, great price - period.
