we love this amp!

This has turned out to be a great buy, I bought this for my son's car and we have been quite impressed so far, as it is pushing two JBL 12"s without straining whatsoever. We were pleasantly surprised at the build quality on the unboxing. The sales rep over the phone mentioned it was their deal of the week last week. I notice now that it is a MB Quart amp, that makes sense, I had never heard of this series so I wasn't sure what to expect. I plan on buying a similar setup for my truck soon though I may go with the 5 channel in this line.

Awesome amplifier for the cost!!!!

I bought this amp thinking for the price it would be average. After installing and using now I am blown away by its performance. Keep in mind it was professionally installed. I used the Belva amp kit purchased with the amp. The packaging is more than acceptable. It comes with everything needed. Very informative paperwork included on wiring. I could go on about how happy I am with this purchase but I will leave at saying you won't be disappointed.

Great quality and pricing

The wcc 1500.1amp is a great addition to my much needed bottom end in my 98 Subaru Forester. I was looking for something dependable while on a tight budget. The Wcc 1500.1was exactly what i was looking for. Plenty of power for one Polk dxi 124d with power to spare. Sounds great while not putting any strain on my electrical system . Amp has the capabilities to run 2 subs up to 500rms each easily. Currently running my Polk at 2 ohms in a 1.6cft vented box and it exceeds my expectations.

Bang for buck

Bought 2, 1 for each sub. Pushing jl's w3's giving 375 rms each wiring at 2 ohms. Does require some power as well, had to upgrade my alternator with a 370 amp Mechman for my GT. My car is heavily modded, so you may not need an upgraded alternator. I also have the west coast customs 4 way pushing my highs, which are Focal. System sound great running on $300 worth of amps, yea can't beat that at all.

Bang for buck

If you're looking to push about 500 or so per sub. This would be for you, not a power house, but gives good clean bass and quality. Only been listening for about a month though.

does well

The amps construction internally looks good. There is a cooling fan and the capacitor bank is an ok size and it's pretty close to its rated 1ohm output that it's rated for on the rms, but as for a dynamic of 1500 watts you won't see it. Mine is running 2 cadence s2w10 600 watt rms rms subs and it does a great job of with them. Mines only a month in running so logevity isn't rated here.
My trucks electrical system is consistently 14.4volt and I've run it hard from time to time and no over heat issues. This amp does good for a budget build so yeah I'll recommend it and would buy anoher depending if it goes a few years of more.

Good for the price

Easy to operate and has good power but not 100% sure it puts out 1500watts don't get me wrong it's got plenty of power for every day use but I myself need more power. I got it in a 2004 Audi A4 with 1 15 and it's loud as f and barely draws and power from the car my lights don't dim at all.so all in all well worth 100$ you won't be dissatisfied o and my sub is wired to 1.5 ohms

Speechless

I'm running 3 JBL 1210S IN A HALF octagon box with the WCC 1500.1 MADE by MB Qaurts. I actually had to turn down the bass boost and gain and I have to say it's phenonaminal and clean sounding. Best amp I've had yet.

Just blowing hot air

I got this wcc1500.1 out of a boat that I recently bought. Not at all sure if it even works yet. I know it powers up but there is no sound from the system period. I actually believe it is a deck issue. But I thought I'd take a look inside the amp just in case. There are no immediately visible issues (ie; blown caps, burnt circuit board, etc) with the amp which is good. Inside the amp is the cooling fan. I can see by the angle of the blades that it is set up to PULL the heat OUT of the amp which is the more effective and proper way of using a cooling fan - which is good. However, the design of this amp has the fan pulling heat out of the amp and blowing the heat into the cavity between the circuit board and outer casing of the amp, which is fine. But then there is nowhere for the heated air to escape from after that other than right back inside the amp via the very thin gaps between both edges of the circuit board and the heat sink of the amp itself and not quite the length of the amp. Which doesn't make any sense to me. Not only does the 'cooling' fan "barely" have enough ventilation openings at each end of the amp in which it is to pull cool outside air into the amp (if it could). But then it has even fewer ventilation openings for it to blow the heated air from inside the amp, right back inside the amp. There are absolutely no ventilation ports for heated air from within the amp to escape thru and outside of the amp. Thereby rendering the 'cooling' fan more than completely useless as a "COOLING" fan. I noticed this in less than 30 seconds of looking inside this amp and I am far from being any sort of tech-savvy guy. How is it that this design flaw was never noticed before production????? Please note that my overall rating of this amp is the sole of the cooling fan design "faux pas" issue alone and has nothing to do with any other performance nor sound qualities of this amp as I have not heard the amp as of yet. So please do not take my single-star ratings of all the other aspects of the amp at face value. I had to give each aspect a rating of some sort in order for the review to even be accepted.
