Great Power amp

I love this amp. First of all the price is great. The amp may say 500 but you get way more wattage than that. My amp is the older model so I got it at a great price,. But kicker and sonic still stand by the product. If you are looking for a great compact amp for your needs get the Kicker.

Good Product

The following review is for 11ZX5001, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

This amp is powerful and makes my 10" alpine subs sound very good. The bad news is the amp is supposed to have an automatic turn on feature that turns the amp on without having to use a remote turn on wire. This was one of the reasons I bought this particular amp because I didn't want to have to pull my head unit back out to hook up the remote turn on wire. While the amp works good the automatic turn on feature did not work. I had to pull head unit to run wire anyway. I can not give it 5 stars for this reason.

Straight thunder!

The following review is for 11ZX5001, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

Kicker nailed it with this amp! It will put almost any 750 watt amp on the market to shame. I blew 4 subs that were rated for 600 watts rms!! I finally forked over the 450 for a 1200 watt memphis 12 and its absolutely perfect. Take my advice, get a much higher rated sub for this beast!

Great AMP!

The following review is for 11ZX5001, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

Kicker amps are the best. Underrated pushing 500+ watts. Paired with Earthquake Sound DBXI-12D - this thing slaps. Had for about a year, still working like brand new.

zx500.01

Good clarity and power for a 500. I use it to power a single shallow mount kicker 10 and running 70% gain it hits hard without any distortion. Overall have always been pleased with Kicker amps.

amazing product

Used this amp with a cvr 15 in a regular cab Chevy truck. The best feature about this amplifier is the compact size for under rated power. Birth sheet showed 723 rms at 2 ohms. Use the auto sensing for new radios and you've got a perfect factory add on.

Great Deal

Great deal on a great product. Using to power 12 " Kicker CVT in reg cab Dodge pick up. Delivery was fast and price was great. Very happy with my purchase. I would definitely continue to do business and make more Kicker purchases from Sonic Electronix.

I love this amp!!!!!

I have the amp pushing 2 kicker 10s in my F150 SuperCrew and they sound nice! I have the gain adjusted about 1/3 of the way up and my truck knocks. I would definitely suggest purchasing this amp. This was my first time using Sonicelectronix and I have told all of my friends about them. I received all of my products in a timely manner and the price was about half of what I could find in any of the local shops. No problems at all with any of my purchases.

Nice fit

I'm using this to power two 8" L7's. Fits right where I wanted it in a small 3 series BMW and pumps out enough clear sound to keep me cruisin for days!
