Summary:
I had this amp hooked up to 2 12" JL W/0's and it sounded alright, no problems with it at all. I sold the subs and hooked the amp up to 4 kenwood 6x8's, and damn, it sounds crazy good. No distortion even at very high volume levels. Overall I would have to say it is a good amp for the money, it pushes full range speakers better than it does subs in my opinion. I would recommend this amp if you are looking to push full range speakers, or if you want a cheap amp to push lower watt subs.

Strengths:
Price, full and high range sound quality, never overheated even when pushing subs.

Weaknesses:
It is not the greatest subwoofer amp.

Summary:
I got the amp around christmas time, hooked on the post-day sales. I had an MTX amp before that, and an American Legacy before the MTX. I can honestly say that this is one of the clearest sounding amps i have ever used. I had some problems with both the MTX and AL, where both seemed to put out bass in waves, like some hits with more power than others. USED WITH: Receiver: Pioneer DAC-3100 Subwoofer: Kenwood W-2585 Speakers: Pioneer series It's price has been declining, it can handle two subs at 300 watts. I strongly recommend it for nice clear sound at a price many can afford.
