good quality amp
Gotta love Sonic Electronix! They are always fast at getting your order out and most everything is free shipping...customer service is very responsive.
I've always been an MTX fan ao my review may be a little biased but this amp is great right now im just using it to power two MTX 5500 8" woofers...the load on the amplifier is 2ohms I've got it wired for dual mono which is perfect because these 8's have an rms@200wts ea. the amp can put out 400wts bridged for one channel@ 2ohms. The 8's are in a 2.25cu.ft ported box tuned just above 40hz....These things pound my gmc sierra crewcab, I shock every one when I fold down my back seat and all they see are 2 little 8's. every on thinks im runnin several 10's or 12's. Anyhow this amp has no problem pushing these little guys, never had it over heat or shut down, and I live in Arizona where in my truck it gets well over a hundred, it has a great cooling system and really cool lighting effects! the dials are easy enough I dont need a screwdriver to adjust anything which is nice. Lastly these things look nice on my amp rack, this amp is right next to a kicker 850.4 and everyone always asks me about the mtx and comments on how good it looks, then they see the kicker and just ask howcome that one's so big?
Con's: The bass knobs for the mtx thunder elite amps are terrible, you are better off just adjusting it through your deck if you can. If not I use a Clarion EQS746 7 band eq and that has a bass knob that works really well and you can adjust all of your system really good, cant beat it for under 60bucks. Lastly this amp is expensive for how small it is, I can honestly say that you get what you pay for. All the internals and components are done by streetwires so you know its good.

i love this amp for starters , small amp , very slick look , the overal design is amazing , i am running 4 sets of mtx componets at 54watts rms at 2 ohms , i could push more but this amp is really enough for the job , crisp and clean sound , a little on the high cost side but well worth it
