Crunch P1-5050.5

great 5 channel amp for the price

This amp has to be one of the better 5 channel amps that ive used for the lower end brand names. For being a crunch amp it has more than enough power to give my mids and highs great sound and enough power in the fifth channel to power my 2 10s. ive had this amp for a few months now and hasn't let me down yet. The only thing I would change is the Phillips type screws for all the connections. One started to strip with very little effort. Only one though. Wish it had the Allen type screws like the hifonics amps. Would definitely buy another one of these.

I use crunch amps a lot, and I highly recommend these amps to my customers. I also have installed many five channel amps, and get great reviews. I'm gonna get this new one crunch p1 5050.5 cause i know it's great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fine for my needs

I originally ran this bridged, it seemed to distort much earlier running it bridged and the front stage over powered the sub channel that is150 watts. I got rear fill speakers and I am very pleased running all five channels. I paid a pro at an installation shop $35 to set my gains and crossovers on the amp. The procedure is not well described in the manual and it was not sounding very good in spite of a lot of tinkering before I paid the pro.
If you buy this amp understand it is large, 20 inches across (you will need 24 as all the wires and controls are on the ends) and 9 inches wide.

I feel it was the best amp I could get for the money, and would buy it again. The system sounds fantastic now that it is powering 5 channels and is adjusted correctly. It did not make for a good three channel amp as the sub was underpowered in that configuration.

good value on 5 ch amp

Amp sounds good with plenty of power pushing 4 door speakers and two 10 in. Subs wired parallel.Amp running at 60 percent power. Satisfied so far.

Good Starter amp

I bought this for a friend of mine and installed it in his car. it's well built, sturdy and packs a good punch for the price. You'll get your money's worth. It was an easy setup and it's driving a 10" Pioneer sub without any issues.

I would recommend this unit for anyone looking to install a good looking amp that delivers and doesn't burn a hole in your pocket.

So loud it is obscene

This is great amp. For the price you can't beat it. I am pushing a pair of 10s + 2 pair of 6.5 3-way components. Damn its loud.

Crunch amp rocks!!!

I purchased this 5 channel crunch amp to replace an aging system in my ski boat. It was easy to install with 2 speakers in front, 2 speakers in the rear and a 12" subwoofer. All wiring and adjustments for sound were very easy. I was pleasantly surprised at the sound quality and levels of adjustment. The remote sub adjustment knob is a great plus. This system sounds so good that I often listen to the stereo as the boat sits in my garage. For the price, it can't be beat. I'm thinking about adding a similar set-up in my personal truck. The service from Sonic Electronics was great too.

I'm impressed

Owned this amp for two weeks. I was worried about buying an amp that cost so little. but I am very happy so far. I have a Pioneer DEH-P6200BT head unit. 2 jl audio c2 component in front doors. 2 jl audio speakers in rear deck, and a Sonic Sub Box: 1H12-0.7 with a
Rockford Fosgate R2D4-12. the sub was out of control until I removed it and add a little sound dampening material inside box now it is well worth the money I spent.

Pure Junk.

Amplifier worked fine for about 11 months, then it started conking out randomly even when not being stressed. The sound coming out of it was pretty garbage too, I forgot how much better music sounded with better quality electronics. I replaced this unit with two separate JBL amps, a 4 channel and a class D, INSTANTLY the sound was better, clearer. As if there were 15 new instruments being played in the music suddenly. Do yourself a favor, do NOT waste money on this unit, save the extra few bucks and buy a decent brand.

worth the $

if you like it loud on the inside of your vehicle and thats all you care about then this amp will do. i used it to power 4 6.5s and 1 12" sub. if you want more watts then run it at 2 ohms. im going to bridge it into a 3 channel to push 2 JL Audio VR690-CXi and 1 12. i will review this later. if you dont care about the name trust me when i say this is worth the price. never shut off got hot shorted or blew my speakers. you cant go wrong with crunch, same with autotek, hifonics, and mb quart....any maxxsonics
