Only one issue.

Amp works great and came on time. My only issue us that when I turn the raduo off there us a loud noise that comes out of the subs. I understand this to be because I have the remote power wire wired to a piwer source that is constant power only when the key is turned on so I will need to install a switch. The old nitro amp did not have this issue.

Junk

If you go to power 2 12s with it it will overheat in 20 minutes. You send it back for them to say its fine. So now you paid 106$ for 10$ to send it back and another 25$ to get it back just so you can throw it in a garbage can. So 141$ for something that's a pos and worthless
