Kicker 02KX1200.1 Amplifier

Price Paid:  $600.00 from Ebay

Year / Model Reviewed:
2004 Kicker kx 1200.1

Summary:
What can I say. This is one of the most powerful amp out there. Superb sound quality as well as loudness. If you want your ears to bleed or set off everyone's alarms in the entire parking lot, this absolutely will not disappoint you. On the other hand, you can enjoy clean bass like you've never had before.
However, this thing sucks power like mad! I had to buy an auxiliary battery to feed this monster. But well worth it.

Strengths:
Mad power. Clean sound.

Weaknesses:
Price. Weight & Size.

Summary:
This amp is great. its a definate powerhouse, so make sure you can acctually use the power instead of wasting it on blown coils. mine's rated at 1420 watts of decimating power that pushes a 12" Phoenix Gold Titanium Elite sub and yes this amp loves to suck power, but damn it turns it into bone crushing bass.

Strengths:
good steady power. acctually under-rated for once. Bass Knob is a god-send. for the money, good deal. Paintable shroud cover for customization.

Weaknesses:
a little big.

Summary:
This thing is good. Dont listen to some people that say it drains alot of power. It will dim your lights but thats about it. I ave mine running 2 kicker solobaric l5 12" 2 ohm speakers. It makes them sound fantastic. Its dont listen to people when they say its that big. There is a cover that makes it about 5 inches longer. I would recommend it to anyone!

Mine was rated at 1367 watts! Nice clean power and nice controls.

Weaknesses:
None
