The best for the money

The Nitro BMW-485 Amp is the best I have ever owned the sound is great. The Bass kicks HARD plus with a bass remote I had to get it .I definitely would recommend this to anyone.

Nitro BMW-485

This amp was worth the money and is very durable. I had it put into my 1990 Toyota and it has performed very well. Also, living in New England means very cold temperatures and I was worried about the amp in the trunk but it has performed very well.

Nice amp. Does what it's supposed to do. This is my second Nitro amp. I have one complaint and that is that the remote base doesn't work (didn't work on the first one either). Don't know why. Called Sonic's tech support who couldn't resolve the issue either. However, rather than return the amp I decided to keep it because everything else works so well. The base level that the amp is set on gets the job done.

very good deal!!

Well it's a great product if you want a good sound in your car..especially if you have good speakers.

The amp plays good but the only problem to
me is that is BIG!! and heavy, more than other amps I know with the same watts..which are smaller and lighter..but overall the amp is good
i really recommend it..

Good amp... a little pricey

Its a good solid amp... has problems with over heating during the summer. Also make sure your trunk is completely rain proof. Some water seeped in and now the amp is ruined.

nitro bmw 485

at first it was find. hard to get a good sound out of it and over heats very easily. i would recommend a good brand amp. you get what you pay for i guess.
the lights look nice but you buy an amp for sound not looks.
