Summary:
I have had this amp for 2 years now, and could not be more satisfied with my investment. I have used it to drive multiple arrays of subwoofers, including Kicker Comp VR's, Kenwood Tornadoes, and currently an Audiobahn Alum Q. It gives me all the power I could possibly need, and then some. Never has overheated or clipped. I highly recommend this amp to anyone. You will not be disappointed!

Strengths:
Rock-solid reliability, powerful sound, Remote bass boost!

Weaknesses:
dynamat can stop the rattling panels

Summary:
Man i bought this amp and didn't know what i was getting. i plugged it in and set the gain only 1/2 way, bass boost about half too. let's just say the doors and windows in my house rattles. this amp pushes out bass like a river. i never heard a amp rated for 500 watts play like this yet. i had a zues 600, man that can't compare to this

Strengths:
Tons of power

Weaknesses:
Nothing
