NVX VAD11005 Great Amp

I was a big fan of the JAD900.5, Installed 4 of them. This new one is just as good but even more power. They also fixed the small annoying things on the 900. Such as the speaker inputs and power/ground input terminals, much nicer now. Nice and deep and also use allen screw, much more secure. Also the new one puts all the RCA connection to one side, so no more cable running in front of the adjustments. I installed with the NVX 5 channel amp kit, as well as the VSP65 component set and VSP65 speaker set and a sub of different Brand due to space constraints. Very pleased with the results. The 11005 is also much easier to mount due to the new case design. If your torn between the 2 amps, the 11005 is worth the cost difference over the 900.5

Knocks your socks off

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

This amp has plenty of power. I don't know how much headroom I have to spare because I am not going any louder - no way!

I listen to classic rock (Rush, etc.), and it is nice and clean... and this is with keeping my factory el cheapo head unit in my Hyundai.

I have some hiss when sound is off, and it could be I have the gains set too high. I will be checking that later (because it got too late tonight, and we needed to finish for the day), but I feel quite sure there is no fault with the amp. I am giving this great rating based on having listened for 1 hour so far. As long as the amp holds up for the long haul, it is a great amp for a great price.

John Islas with SonicElectronix was my sales rep, and he was good to work with.

Great footprint and power

Love this amp. Tons of power, clear sound. Running my front 4 channels through a dsp into this amp, and a Dayton audio sub at 600w rms at 2 ohms. Very satisfying to listen to parkway drive and Mastadon

Great fit behind 2013 Frontier Crew Cab Rear Seat

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

This amp was perfect solution for the limited hidden space in my Crew Cab Frontier. Installed behind rear seat. Powers 4 Image Dynamics 6.5" door speakers + Image Dynamics 10" Subwoofer. Sounds great and performs great. Haven't noticed any issues such as heat. I would recommend and have recommended.

Great value!!

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

I purchased this amp in March '14, but waited a few months before reviewing. This is an excellent amp without question. I have had zero issues with it since day 1. It does not heat up the way my old Alpine amp did, and will only get warm to the touch after hours of use. Highly recommended.

Love it!

I was one click away from purchasing an Alpine 5-channel amp but decided to give this NVX a shot instead after a lot of research. I'm glad I did. I saved hundreds and This thing is loud and clear. Built well and runs cool. Pushing Infinity speakers in all four corners of my Tacoma along with a Dayton Audio HO 10".
Friends and family have all been amazed with the sound. Great little amp.

NVX 5 channels amplifier

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

This is my first car amplifier. It been a great suggestion from a representative seller from Sonic electr. Today I can listeng to my music from a great amplifier that can keep a lot power. I been using it since 3 moths and now I'm more familiar with the ampli and also with my new radio (also get it at Sonic). I have the best of 2 worlds. Finally, I great thanks to Michael, a seller that answer to all my question and gave the best advises to a bigginner as me. I got from Sonic my Pioneer DEH-X9500BHS, my Polk MM speakers and my NVX Amplifier. All that toghter makes a great combination. I went with Sonic because of a such great service. For sure I'll come back in the futur. Carlos from Montreal

Great deal!

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

This amp is pretty awesome so far. I wanted to have a so gel amp that I could tuck under my passenger seat on my 2011 Mazdaspeed 3. It fits perfectly, teamed up with the nvx 4 gauge amp kit and the the nvx 1 farad cap. I get minimal power drop at idle and nothing when driving. No lights dimming, nothing. But my sub is numbing and speakers are loud and clear. Love it so far. Highly reccomended.

Cape Horn 32

I'm using this to power 4 seven inch 200W Fusion Speakers and one 10 inch 600W sub-woofer. Music is coming from the NXV Bluetooth module. I have no other controls and my boat rocks! If you have good speakers you don't need anything else since the tunable filters are more than sufficient for both pairs and woofer. The included remote bass is useful but I find that once you have figured out what you like you really don't need to adjust. The subsonic filter is awesome. At full power, if you turn it to max the woofer vibrations in the boat drop substantially without having any impact on the sound. I mounted it inside of my center console so it won't be exposed to any elements other than salt air so the class D conformal should do the trick. I guess I will find out in three years or so. Absolutely love the way that it draws ZERO current until the Bluetooth module sends music (attach blue wire from BT to the amp and you're done).

Another Great NVX Amp

I was really impressed with my previous JAD900.5 5-channel amp in my older car (used it for 5 years). Matched it with a NVX 12” sub and it was solid. So when I got my new car I went with the new VAD11005 & a step up on the 12” NVX sub. I love it! Plenty of controls, solid power & great sound. For the price & quality I am completely satisfied with NVX subs & amps. Highly Recommended!!

Nice amplifier, you should have one

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

Very nice amplifier, crystal clear sound transformation and small size which could fit in your car anywhere, and light weight to save some gas.

Installation pretty easy, but need to buy other accessories to install, all the lines are pretty, but shipment takes some time. If they are in a whole package will be easy and save customer some time. Thanks.

Small foot print, lots of output , runs cool !

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

I purchased this amp cause of the great reviews it has. It has a really small foot print. the power ratings where in the range I was after. I play my music pretty loud and have never had any concerns of over heating. The amp runs warm at times The output is very clean and smooth sounding. The only thing I wished it had was maybe a bass boost around45Hz for the front and rear channels. The subwoofer does have bass boost option. I have not tried to use it. I am using the Rockford fasgate 360.3 so I run the the amp with all eq's and boost off. But overall this is a great amp. I have been very impressed by NVX so far.

I was skeptical at first but very glad I bought this amp.

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

I was looking for a smaller amp to replace my two larger amps that I had from a previous install.
I had use the Massive NX5 last year and had the over heating issue every time I was in my car.
The NVX has yet to have any problems. It gets warm to the touch after a 45 min drive but not flaming hot like some other amps.
I like to play my music loud so I was worried that the 70 watts RMS its rated for would disappoint. I had the exact opposite experience! This amp pushes my CDT speakers with ease.

Also note that you can run your system active just by using the built in crossovers.

Can't go wrong!

Never having heard of NVX, understandably I was a bit reluctant. But the price for a 5 channel amp was hard to argue. My old boat had a fusion 5 channel amp, which was great, and is still going after 5 years, but also $600. The NVX is less than half the cost, and to be honest I believe more powerful. The kind folks at Sonic Electronix have always given me good advice, and they assured me I would not be disappointed with the NVX. They were not kidding. I have it hooked up to 4 JL Audio MX series speakers - two 650s and two 770s, plus a JL 10" M series sub, which is better than the MX sub. And I did opt for NVX's 5 channel amp install kit - definitely worth it.

For the head unit I went with a JBL gauge style PVR-275. It was inexpensive and had 3 sets of pre-amps, which I figured was important. I have to say, I'm floored by the overall performance. The system gets very loud, and stays clean at high volumes. I've had the system installed for only a month so far, but I couldn't be happier, and I can't believe a $6-800 amp would sound any better. Fingers crossed for years of enjoyment - that will be the true test.

Great 5ch amp

Purchased this amp to power my Hertz component speakers in my front and rear doors and two JL Audio 10" subs. The components are powered at 4 ohms and I'm powering the subs at 2 ohms. Thanks to this amp my truck THUMPS. I have it mounted under the front passenger seat in my Tundra and it runs cool even running it loud for extended periods. I'm loving this amp.

Great amp

I purchased the VAD11005 to put in my 2018 F150. I'm running AudioControl LC7i behind the factory radio. A set of Pioneer TS-A6970F 5-way in the front doors and a set of Kenwood KFC-1696PS 6 1/2" in the rear with some dynamat. I used two 10" Apline Type R subs in a Fox Acoustic box. It's a huge difference from the factory. I used to have the volume on 10+ for basic listening now I keep around 3 or 4 and it sounds better.

Best Bang For your Buck!

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

I was a bit reluctant at first since I never heard of NVX but the Rep at Sonic highly recommended it stating that it was a great product with awesome Sound Quality.

He was right!

To take it further I decided to contact NVX in California and spoke to Richard. I picked his brain regarding the JAD900.5 and he went into all of the details and completely addressed all of my questions and concerns.

He also took the time to advise on the proper setting up and matching the unit to other equipment.

I received it and installed it immediately, tweaked the tuning to it's best and all I can say is WOW!!!!! 279? This amp is "EXTEMELY" well worth every penny and then some!!!!

I have had top brand products before and to be honest they are just extremely Over Rated and way over Priced!

Specs Match top line.

It hits very hard and I don't have the Gain Levels turned all the way up.
It doesn't heat up after being driven for hours straight non stop .

Not a fancy setup Kenwood KDC-X895 Head Unit, Infinity Kappa 692.9i using 6x9 Speaker Baffles filled with sound insulation on Rear Deck Infinity Kappa 6x8 in Doors, MTX Thunder 12" 8000 in 1.7 Non Ported Box. 4 Gauge Power and Ground wires + Monster Speaker wire.

Pro's: Small Size, Doesn't heat up, Clean Looking Unit. Clean Sound Quality I would highly recommend this to anyone!

CONS: None

Thanks Richard and Thank you Sonic Electronix!!!

Great Amp!!!

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

I purchased this amp to replace a dead channel FLI amp that was DOA and no longer available from sonic. Kinda got pushed into a more expensive amp but they were right. I am pushing 2 pairs of polk db components and a 8" JBL gto sub. WOW!!! Great mid sonic lows and very clean. I have pushed this amp for an hour at moderate to high levels and not even warm to the touch. Not a hint of clip at near unlistenable levels. Best 5 channel amp out there that i have ever heard. I am now a loyal NVX Customer! Thanks Sonic.

This amp has so far been flawless. The only downside is the fine tuning is not as great. Still workable but the space it takes up is minimal. I have a Nice 10" Rockford attached and if not monitored can destroy it.

WOW ! AWESOME VALUE AWESOME POWER!

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

My experience with Sonic Electronix has been excellent ! The NVX product line is a fantastic value and the performance rivals products 3 times the cost. The JAD900.5 is the amp you need if you are looking to run your whole car audio system with 1 amplifier. I have been so VERY impressed with the power and performance from an amp with such a small footprint. I have 8 speaker running off the 4 stereo channels and one 12in 4ohm sub from the sub output. This amp has more than enough power and is capable of putting out 1000watts RMS of clean, clear power if you want to max it out. For $299 this amp is a steal of a deal and I could not be happier with my purchase. It has all the features you need in a car audio amp except High level inputs which I did not need. I give this amp 5 stars across the board and you will to. I did my research first and it paid off in spades. JUST BUY IT !

NVX JAD900.5

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

Recently purchased the NVX JAD900.5. Quality look, quality feel, and more importantly quality sound. Excellent value, would purchase again. I also purchased the VSP65KIT 6.5" component set, also sound well beyond the purchase price. NVX provides affordable, high quality products. Excellent value, would purchase again.

Excellent amp, excellent price

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

Pro's: The sound is excellent, puts out more than enough power, the price is very good. I was between this and a high end JL amp. I own a JL300/2. I would say this amp is comparable. It's main advantage being it's price. It has a good set of crossovers, easy to use, and good protection from a short circuit.

Con's: I know I'm being picky but I wish there were more options with the crossovers. One channel has a HPF up to 4000 hz, wish it went a little higher. Other channel has a lpf up to 4000 hz and a hpf up to 400hz. But then again to get fully adjustable crossovers would cost much more.

In the end an excellent amp for a excellent price, if I wanted a new amp with full crossovers and 5 channels it would be at least 2x as much. I recommend getting this one unless you have tons of money.

Awesome AMP at a great price

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

I couldn't agree more with other reviewers. I hooked this amp up to pioneer components (6.5) inch in the front and JL 5.5 inch two ways in the back of my 2002 honda CRV. Also put a 10 inch shallow enclosed Pioneer sub rated at 200 watts. More than enough power to push everything with plent of gain to spare. Still tweaking but sounds really good. I shopped around and this seamed the best value for the money and got a 2 year warranty when buying the 4 gauge amp install kit. Couldn't be happier with this purchase. Only gave 4 on durability because I have only had it hooked up for a week.

Amazing little amp.

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

Just recently purchased this amp. Got it in one day so I am extremely thrilled with the shipping and service at sonic. I have it powering my entire system with Polk db1240-dvc sub and 2 sets of speakers. In the front I have the Focal 165CA1 and in the back I went with the 690CA1. This amp is tiny and doesn't heat up much at all. I like the controls and I got the gain turned down a little for the 5th ch and my sub sounds great. The highs are crisp on my Focals and I will be back to do my other car sooN! Thanks.

Meh

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

Had this amp die out twice. First time one channel just decided to stop working. Sent it on warranty and they fixed it relatively quick. Just attempted an install on a different car and it immediately went into "Protect". I have verified all wiring is 100% correct (this isn't my first rodeo) and even hooked up a different amplifier, which worked great. Good features at a good price, but just not reliable.

Great AMP

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

For the price, quality, and build of this amp, you can't beat it.
It has great adjustability (not as much as over $500 Amps), but way more than enough for its use.

It powers my Rockford Fosgate 6'' Fronts, Cerwin Vega 6X9 rears, and a 12' sub perfectly at 4 Ohms, gets plenty loud, but not overly where you'll never use its potential.

The amp will get warm after 30-45 mins of heavy use, but even on a long 350+ mile trip (inlcuding through slow chicago traffic) I never had the amp overheat/shut off.
I have had it for about 6 months now and have no complaints!

It is small and compact, fits right behind my rear fender in the trunk allowing me to tuck it away behind the carpet lining (still no heat issues either & its on the exhaust outlet side that gives some radiant heat).

It has over exceeded my expectations, has a range of adjust-ability and uses. NVX has hit the market spot on with a medium-high level amp that is a premium quality at a effective cost!

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

I have this in my 2008 Town & Country powering my Arc Audio XDI693's, RF T1572's and my NVX VSW104! It's small enough to fit under my seat and never runs hot! I have all NVX wires too! The SQ is truly amazing! I spend a lot more time in my vehicle now! The side controls are simple and work great for tuning! The sub remote keeps my wife happy! LOL! The power, ground and remote adapter make the install clean and simple as well! This amp is strong and well put together just like every NVX product! Look no further than NVX for quality, durable products! Sonic Electronix should be your first choice when shopping online or anywhere for that matter! Thanks guys!

Excellent amp

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

This is an excellent amp and compares to the best JL, Fosgate, or other. Wide range of crossover features, high power, and clear sound. I have owned a JL 300/2 and Fosgate T800.4 and this amp is right along those, but for about 1/2 the price. I have one minor complaint, when using the crossover there aren't any markings between the first frequency (40hz) to the last frequency (4000hz). It makes it difficult to tell exactly what frequency the crossover is set at, an it has to be done by ear. Nonetheless it isn't worth spending twice as much money on an amp just for that feature.

Great Amp

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

I would recommend this to anyone who doesn't want to deal with multiple amp setups, I run high cone area to compensate for the low power for the sub channel. I have been building my own systems for 6-7 years now and I would rather have a 15" ID15 with 400 watts to it than my old competition setup of 2.2K watts to a single ten inch. Only reason I don't like the amp(4/5 stars for design) is because it should take 4 AWG in for power and ground, had to use a power distroblock to get it down to 8AWG for my power line.

Hard to find a better value

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

When I was upgrading my system for a third time I had decided I was going to spend the extra money for high SQ products. When looking for a new 5ch class D I had narrowed my field down to the Hertz HDP 5, the JL 700 /5, and the Polk PA 5000. I spoke with a rep at Sonic about placing an order and he said I should look into the NVX JAD900. Having had bad experiences with new outfits or house brand products in the past I was extremely skeptical. He stated all NVX products were CEA rated and if I were to compare specs I would find the NVX would sit right along side the brand name amps I was interested in.

After much research I found that other than some cosmetic differences the amps all used the same chipset, shared nearly identical dimensions and input and control designs, and we're nearly identical CEA rated power. So why did I choose the NVX in the end? I was able to purchase it for about half of the cost of the brand name amps! The amp installed easily, NEVER runs hot, and has really good SQ. for once in my life I was proven wrong that more money means better quality and performance. Do the research and see for yourself. There is no better product for the money!

Pros: Clean power, small footprint, super efficient, looks great, and the best performance per dollar!

Cons: The status light is super bright making tuning at night pretty difficult. The crossovers are a bit too wide range making it difficult to dial in but it's the same crossover and filter setup used on the well known brand name amps. There were some errors in the wiring diagram but it was an easy fix.

Overall a fantastic whole system solution that lets you spend more on your speakers and less on a brand name companies marketing budget.

Great Bang For the Buck

This amp did awesome used it in a 1993 C1500 pickup for a set of NVX 6.5" component speakers, a set of 4x6" Memphis speakers and 2 kicker CVR 10" subs. This thing was loud!! Once tuned it sounded awesome. They pack great power in this package! size-wise for a 5 channel, it is relatively small you could put under a seat if need be. OVerall great sound tunability and price!

Best bang for your buck!!!

I have installed Amp in a 2015 HD FLHTK Limited and nothing in the motorcycle market comes close. I'm using AMP to power 3 pairs of J@L 6.5 C-2's and 2 J@L 6.5 Subs with power to spare on top end. Crystal clear with NO distortion when properly tuned. Tons of complements from riders in relation to sound quality. Not too mention deer are on the run 1/4 mile away staying clear of the loud tunes. Also the reliability is off the charts since mine has been installed close to 2 yrs now and we all know the abuse a rough road can do to electronics. Haven't had a single issue since installed and would buy another NVX in a HEARTBEAT. Buy it and you will not be disappointed!!!!!

This AMP sounds pretty good. Nice and clear! The connector block accommodates 4 gauge wire for power easily. It also accommodates 14 gauge speaker wire easily too!

Great Value!

Great Amp. Paired to Nvx 6.5in component in front doors and Rockford t2 6.5 in components on rear deck. 12inch Nvx sub in sealed box.
Comparing this amp to my previous setup of Jl slash 300.4 powering infinity kappa components and jl slash 500.1 powering 2 10 inch w6s.

Sound quality is excellent. Found the slash series to have a warmer,and slightly better sound quality. To be expected comparing an ab class amp to a class d amp.

Overall this is an amazing amp. No issues so far after a year of use. Kudos to Sonic Electronics on recommending NVX as a great alternative to JL and other more costly brands! Pair this amp to a good set of components and you wont be disappointed.

Good product

Was kind of hesitant about ordering this amp in the first place. I’m glad I did. It gives more than enough to power my sub that needs 700+rms. It’s the best that I’ve ordered.

Impressive at this price point.

Decided on this amp for our soft top Jeep due to price point and the fact that it is marine certified.
Installed easily under the front passenger seat.
Pushing Focal components in front, Focal coaxes in soundbar, and a 12" sub in a sealed box. Plays loud and clear once tuned correctly. Running off 4 AWG power/ground and signal is from Amppro 4 AP4-CH41 with factory HU.
Only issue I found was that the rear gain (CH 3/4) had to be turned way down so it did not over power the front channels. Could possibly be the placement of the rear soundbar speakers (right at the back of your head).
Jeep is a 2021 with the 7" Uconnect. I would imagine that amp would perform ever better with a good aftermarket head unit.
Highly recommend this amp.
Disclaimer: Pic was initial install and testing. Wiring has since been cleaned up.

Installed in a 2016 Toyota Camry with 4 kickers 6x9 and a JL10x3v4-2. This amp is plenty strong to push what I have on it. It works great and runs cool compared to other amps I have had in the past. The amp setup is great as far as the inputs and outputs go. All the dials on one side clearly marked. I would definitely recommend this product for an all in one setup like I went for.

NVX does it AGAIN!

I have this in a CTS. Had issues with the factory wiring diagram being incorrect. Finally sorted it out!

This is one bad amp! NVX has been a favorite of mine since the JAD900.5! The VAD11005 is more powerful and just as, if not, more clean than the JAD! It makes my VSP65 Kit and my VSP525's sound Awesome! I play with numerous NVX subwoofers. At first I had 2 VSW82's in the dual Atrend enclosure... simply Amazing! At the moment I am running 1 VSW124 in the Belva single vented enclosure... wayyy more than I expected! Next up is 2 NSW102's, then 2 NSW104's, and finally I'll run 2 NSW122's... Belva dual vented enclosures for all these as well. After all my swapping in and out, I'll know what I want for daily! Oh, I forgot. I have a VCW104 to try too! Yeah, I know... I'm hooked! It's ok though! I am vehicle shopping now so I can put the others to use! SMH!

It's not so small that you lose the adjustable crossovers like some newer amps, but not so large that it takes up too much space. All the controls are easy to use, as well as the connections. BTW... alllll NVX wires, fuse holders, distros and X-series RCA's!!! NVX ROCKS!

No dimming lights with this baby either! If you're looking for a 5 channel, look no further than NVX and Sonic! Thanks again to the Awesome Team at Sonic! NVX... Second to None!

Small amp, plenty of power

I have this amp in a 2019 ram crewcab pushing alpine type r 6x9s, infinity 3.5"s, and an NVX vcw104 sub @2ohms in a ported box. The sound is clean and loud, gain turned up 1/3 of the way on front channels and maybe halfway on rear channels. I bought this amp to push a single vcw104 which I already had laying around and yet small enough to be mounted behind the rear seats, and it does both with ease. That sub in a ported box powered by this amp really slams, more than I need. Very compact, very powerful, extremely pleased.

Bought this amp a little over a year ago and it really rocked, all of a sudden it started going into protect mode. Took it to the installer and found a shorted out fuse block at the battery but it still had current. I am so happy for the amp doing what its supposed to do and saving itself. Now I'm back to being able to jam again. Thanks sonic for having such awesome products!

Amazing

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

I was on the fence about buying something other than JL amps. I have a HD600/4 and a 750/1 in my F150. I have no clue why I wasted JL money on my truck. The sub channel is a little lacking for the speaker I picked - my fault not the amp. I went with one of the NVX 12's rated at 800+ RMS so it could have gotten more power. For what I have in this system it sounds amazing and I didn't pay JL HD amp prices and it came with a bass control knob that JL sells separate.

I am sold on NVX now and I have the $$ to buy whatever I want. Total system was right at $1070 for this amp, Kenwood receiver, 2 sets Polk MM's, amp wire, and 12 w/box.

Don't hesitate to get this amp!!

NVX JAD900.5

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

Quality amp, don't pay attention to the test numbers. They only work on the bench. The factory numbers are still a bit high as it was tested at over volt.

An alternator only puts out MAX 14.2VDC and only at high load. a charged battery is only charged at 13.8VDC.
Expect a bit less than factory spec. The amp is plenty loud for me, I a teen I would shoot at the range w/o ear protection, as an old installer a put in and tuned many loud stereos. No more. Moderate clean and pland plenty of undistorted sound is in here. Look no farther this is it

I would recommend this Fine sound equipment for any one.

Class D is the future of car audio..

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

All of the many amps I owned before the NVX were class A/B and some had a class D sub channel, the JAD900.5 is the first full-range class D amp I have used and I have no regrets, the amp is very musical and the power is linear, it just keeps getting louder but doesn't lose any clarity. There is no need to spend more money unless you are just committed to using a certain brand, it really doesn't get much better. I run full active 5 channel system with Hertz Energy ET26.5 Tweeters, Image Dynamics X57 Mids and a Polk Audio DB1212 Sub, the Bass punches me in the stomach and it really sounds good, use quality speakers and you won't be disappointed..

Great Amp!!

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

I have two of these amps, one in a Thunderbird and One in a Supercrew F-150. Both sound great, and I have had zero issues with either, the one in the T-Bird has been used daily for over a year now. They are surprisingly small for how much power they deliver. I do not really care for the gauge adapter for the power and grounds however it has never gotten loose or anything on me either so it works. Because of this amp I have since tried other NVX products and have been happy with everything that has the NVX name on it, I have used a bit of everything from the sound deadener, install kits, fuse holders, amps, subs, etc. This amp stays nice and cool, has only ever gotten luke warm for me.

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

Bought this amp on faith of reviews. Really cheap for what you get in terms of sheer power and SQ. Pushes my Sony 3 way components and Alpine truck box loaded 10" ported woofer.

Small form factor. Was able to mount under the seat of my 2000 S10 single cab. Runs warm but not hot. Remote sub control is a nice feature as well.

The only complaint I could come up with is that the terminal screws could be allen key instead of philips. Would be a more secure and less-stripable piece of hardware

Well worth the money

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

Bought it for Christmas for my daughter's 1992 Camaro. I wanted one amp due to special constraints and it's worth every penny. I'm using Phoenix gold mid grade series(I can't remember the model numbers) for 6x9's and 4x6's on a 2 ohm load pushing 50 watts rms to each of those, which is plenty actually with the proper tuning. for the sub I've got it turned all the way up powering a Image Dynamics IDQ10 at 2 ohm with a properly spec'd 1.6 net cubit foot box ported and tuned down to 28hz and it CRUSHES with this amp. The power is relentless, it doesn't quit, and no matter what volume level-low or high, it's clean, nothing muddy or lost. The bass knob is a good feature that gives you more range when you're listening to different types of music, you don't always need it thumping. The mids and highs are well delivered. I'm not maxing out those channels because the speakers aren't rated for it, so I'm in the upper half of the power range and they sound very good with the amount of power delivered to them. This amp runs cool for hours at a time.

Now the cons. The amp doesn't have the best crossover setting points, they could be better. It's just that the settings are widespread and you have to be very slow to adjust it. All in all, I'd recommend.

Affordable perfection

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

I was surprised and how small of a footprint this makes. Loved that it came with adapters for zero to four gauge. I have had this installed since Christmas Eve. It has worked flawlessly. Was a little sensitive to dial in the gain properly, but take your time and it’s all good. The only thing I would have liked to seen on this amp. Was that it was slightly raised from the mounting points. The bottom is all flush so if you don’t use standoff’s it has to airflow to the bottom of the amp. Can’t speak on durability since it’s only been a few months.

Pleasantly Surprised

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

I got this based on reviews I have read on here. Front and rear channels are powerful as a mofo. The sub channel will push any sub with an RMS of 250-400. Nice clean sound. The only thing I would change is the crossovers. It is real hard to dial in. Other than that a steal at 214 bucks. I have it in a 06 Civic sedan on 4 NVX 6.5 coaxials and a MDX 12 in a 2.40bx tuned to I think 38 or so. I really loves the lows. Hits nice between 28-40. I am a new believer in these digital amps. I'm a 40yr old bass head from the days of pioneer IMPP 12s and Kicker Impulse cheater amps. Shout out to the 90s.

Good value

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

Good clarity overall.

This is my second 900.5 for a second vehicle and it's also paired with an audio control LC7. It's in a GM vehicle and runs a Polk audio component set and rear coax, along with a 10 inch kicker sub. This is a good price point for what you get. I'm still fine tuning and compared to my first set up with different Focal speakers, it still plays clear and fairly loud. There seems to be a very narrow sweet spot with the gains and crossover so I'd recommend being patient. I've been tuning for about a month now and still among fine adjustments.

Extremely Impressed

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

To be honest, I have been out of the Car Audio game for 10 years, and at that time the thought of a clean sounding full range class D amplifier was a pipe dream. When jumping back in to Car Audio and desiring to put a clean sounding audio system in my truck, yet keep it fairly affordable and compact, I was VERY skeptical to give this amp a shot. My bias told me no way could a full range class D sound as good as the Class A/B or Class A amps I have experienced in the past. I decided to look past my bias and give this amp a shot.

When it came in I was stunned by how compact it was! I am used to big Class A/B amps, which at this power rating would be 22 inches long. Hell my last run with Class D mono blocks were all 15 plus inches. It's compactness meant I would have no problem with placement in my Tundra Pick Up.

I was also surprised by all the settings I could use, as I had only 4 pre-outs on my deck (A budget friendly Pioneer AVH-280BT), I was ecstatic to find that I could run either a internal crossover for the sub channel, or use a the rear pre-outs on my deck to run the subwoofer, and use a sum setting to run the front rca's to power the Front and Rear speaker outputs of the amp. Definitely was not expecting that to be found in a Amp in this price range.

Finally it came time to hook up the amp. Wow! Nice clean power that make Guitars, Bass Drums all just sound like they are suppose to! So happy I took the chance on this amp.

If your looking for a great sounding, powerful 5 Channel amp this is the one for you. I just wish they made a Marine version of this amp, so I can put one in my boat!

Thanks Sonic!

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

The 4 channel part of the amp is clean and clear. Running it with JL FiX 86 and focal 6.5" 3 way components. Problem is that the sub portion of the amp cannot keep up with the mids and highs. Had to use an arc audio mono sub amp (600 watts rms) and it still isn't enough for the mids and highs. Bottom line, great clean amp for mids and highs, but not enough on the subwoofer to keep up.

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

Compare this amp with other 5 channel amps and it's a no brainer especially when you take in account the dyno test performed by sonic electronics showing higher rms power through all channels. Better sound and frequency options than my old soundstream 4 channel amp. I'm easily powering my Polk 6501s, Alpine type r 6.5s and my 8" Polk mm. And this was at my door in 2 days with free shipping ( faster than crutchfield )

Good platform, but requires some attention

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

The NVX certainly can produce tons of raw power, but there is more to audio than just power. The amp utilizes the oldest and cheapest audio op-amps (TL072) which suffers from poor audio and even phase reversal. I have upgraded mine to Burr-Brown OPA-1642 op-amps and replaced the super cheap signal chain electrolytic caps with SILMIC II and the amp performs with specs that rivals audiophile.

Phenomenal Amplifier

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

I've now used this specific amplifier twice and it still does not cease to surprise me with it's output and clarity while not being large or flashy like other brands. Once in a Jeep wrangler and another in a C5 Corvette.

Other than the layout of the dials not being labeled in a way that makes complete sense(the top row of dials belongs to the subwoofer channel fyi) it is a fantastic amp. Drives the speakers with no trouble at all and the subwoofer as well. Clarity is as expected from these amps is this is my fourth NVX amp purchase.

It's also not very physically large in an industry where somehow ockford-ray osgate-fay makes gigantic amps that produce the same power as this NVX with what seems to be all the same features honestly and protections. 10/10 would do again.

Great amp

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

Put this in my 2001 ram to power the 6x9s in the doors and the 6.5 in the rear with a shallow mount 12 and I have to say I'm very impressed with the sounds quality. Clear loud and powerful and very space saving. The only thing I dont like is the initial speaker pop when its started. Other than that though its a solid high quality amp

Exceptional Amp

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

This has got to be one of the best 5 channel amps for the buck. Running mb quart component, coax and JL 12tw3 with no issue. Small profile and plenty of power. A military have if searching for a 5 channel amp

Great 5 channel amp!

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

This amp really sounds good. Have it pushing 2 sets of component speakers in 4 doors and a 10" sub. After setting up, system is very balanced and clean. Nice and small, installed behind rear cargo trim, stays nice and cool. The only thing that would have been nice is a 10x multiplier switch to run 4 channels active.

Excellent Amp & Excellent Price

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

I have been jamming this amp for a month with no problems at all. It is plenty loud for the main speakers and very solid on the subwoofer. I've been running it around 80%+ max. Warms up but does not run hot. Controls are very easy to adjust and very well laid out. I was skeptical about buying a 5-channel amp vs. 2 separate amps (4-channel & 1-channel) but I wanted a slimmed down installation as opposed to the 2 separates I had previously (cheaper too). So I gave this NVX amp a try and I am pleasantly surprised. I would definitely buy this item again. If you don't need competition volume but still like it loud this amp's for you. I highly recommend this amp. Solid build, sound & clean as a whistle to boot!!

My system: A Kenwood eXcelon KDC-X998 head unit. Running 4 channels at 4 ohms into 6-1/2" and 6"x9" Polk db series speakers. The fifth channel is wired 2 ohms into a NVX NSW124V2 12" sub with a 1.5 cu ft. sealed box. My main music is Rock/Metal so I want a tight punch on the sub. Double Bass drums never sounded so good. : )

Great value!

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

I didn't want to spend a lot of cash on amps for my work truck so I thought I'd give this one a try (being 5 channels, I only needed this one). This amp has tons of power and is pretty small. It's a great value!!

GREAT BANG FOR YOUR MONEY

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

It's a great amp for the price! It powers everything I have in the car. I ended up buying 2 and putting one in my wife's QX80 and it bangs her 2 Alpine 10's easily that have 500rms each. I did buy a fan to cool it down for long road trips as It would shut itself off when it got too hot in the summer.

Excellent amplifier

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

This amp did everything I needed. I used it to power my entire 5 channel SQ system.
Felt the item was very reasonable priced for the power and ratings.
If I'm in the market for a 5 channel amp, I would purchase this one.

Great value!

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

Purchased this and after reading the reviews here.... For the price, it's just what I was looking for. Small enough to fit under most front seats. Adequate power. Runs cool and sounds great. Very versatile amp. Can configure many different ways to match your needs. Time will tell concerning dependability but worth the risk for the price paid. No regrets, so far....

Good amp for the $

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

Small footprint. Running 2 300rms earthquake 10" subs and they hit hard. I have two sets of 100rms Fosgate 6.5 component sets running off the other channels and the amp gives them all they want. Bass knob works well and amp has never been warm.

I am impressed but there is some background noise at low volume levels. My radio has 2 sets of pre-outs and I would recommend a radio with 3 sets as I feel sharing the outputs has induced some feedback and reduced volume levels.

If you are looking for a value priced 5 channel. You can't go wrong in my opinion.

Favorite Amp Ever Owned

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

I'm very much in love with this amp. As a 5 channel amp it runs my entire system consisting of an active 2 way front stage and single 15" sub mounted trunk baffle / infinite baffle in my sedan. It pumps out gobs of power on all channels, is super flexible to hook up, comes in a tiny package that's easy to hide, doesn't get more than warm even after hours of reference level listening and is super efficient. In short: this amp is perfect.
You absolutely cannot beat the value of this amp, you'd have to spend double or more to even come anywhere close to its performance.
I've had it for a few months now and also installed one in my brother's car, he also loves it.
The only down side I should mention is the supplied sub channel remote, it's flimsy and not progressive at all. Just throw it away and order the Scosche EFX RLC, it's easier to dose and feels way more solid.

Good solid starting point

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

Pro's: For it's size, it is a stellar performer. Clearly can provide it's claimed power rating and then some.

Con's: Chinese assembled. Solder quality fair. Amplifier preamp section would greatly benefit with TI's recommended op-amp, and ELNA SILMIC II's in the signal path.

I would recommend it for it's price.

Simply awesome.

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

Great features in a small package. I have this running in a Dodge Ram QC @ 2ohms on all channels. It is an excellent value and highly recommended if a one amp solution is what you are looking for.

The only thing I would change is to use a different finish as what is on it holds dirt/dust horribly.

Great amp

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

I purchased this for my girlfriends 96 ford explorer. I am using this as a 5 channel, powering some 5.25 Morel speakers up front and JVC 5x7 in back. The sub is a craigslist special, a fosgate P2 10" in a seald box. The head unit is a Kenwood, and i am using all active cross overs from the Kenwood ( I dont have any of this in front of me, so i dont know the model numbers ) this whole set up sounds great!!

The NVX amp has some awesome features. You can use the x over network to run a active front stage. So channels 1 and 2 for the mids, setting the x over in a band pass setting.... And channels 3 and 4 for the tweets, running high passed. And you still have the sub channel.

I would recommend this amp

Great for a jeep build

The following review is for a previous version (JAD900.5).

This amp was perfect in size and ran a full sound system in a Jeep wrangler. Components on front stage, coaxials for overhead rear, and 5th channel powered a kicker 6.75 sub in center console. Amp performed great and had the Jeep sounding clear and strong. Would by again if needed to in future!

Powerful small sized amp

I have this amp under the passenger seat in my 1999 Subaru Legacy, it fits perfectly and provides more power than I need for 4 6.5" Alpine S-Series coaxials and a Rockford Fosgate P3D4-10 wired for 2ohm.

I like it so much I'm about to get a second for my 4runner.

Amplifier was perfect for my boombox

Made a boombox with 4 6x9 speakers and 2 10” subwoofers and let me tell you this amp does a fantastic job at pushing all components! My neighbors sure don’t like hearing it that’s for sure!

Awesome addition

It's nice to have a fairly compact amp to run door speakers and subwoofer. The subwoofer is slightly underpowered, but it gives me the power/loudness that I was looking for
