La calidad de sus componentes y su sonido, mas potencia de la anunciada, pequeño tamaño

Ninguna.

Summary:
Tremendo amplificador, la mejor calidad de sonido, nunca se recalienta ni va a proteccion, manda mas watts de los anunciados, se nota la calidad de la marca Eclipse hecha totalmente en USA, los crossover son muy buenos y el tamaño del amplificador es bastante pequeño. Con el mueves facilmente y al maximo 4 cornetas o componentes con una calidad exelente ya que nien alto volumen distorciona.

Strengths:
Eclise name, build quality, reliability, will do rated power. Its also small.

Weaknesses:
ugly. idiots have used this amp. They have distorted the reviews for everyone.

Summary:
First off, the people using this amp to drive subs are idiots. This is a SMALL component amp suitable for a girlfriends car to drive a pair of 6x9s and some components up front. Its also suitable to run a set of components if you bridge it and run it x2 at 4 ohms. Anyone running 2 subs at 60RMS each is stupid. Running 2 12 or 15 inch subs on this amp and them complaining it gets hot..LOL Try properly setting the gain, not clipping the amp, and driving subs with a suitble amp, and then post a review. Idiots.

Strengths:
Clean, Very clean. Clear highs, tight mid bass

Weaknesses:
Bad choice for a sub amp. But 4 channel amps were never meant to drive subs

Summary:
Excellent clean amp. I have it hooked up to an eclipse head unit, 2 8" 3-way doors, 2 6x9's in the rear (all eclipse components). This setup is loud and unbelievably clean. An excellent amp. There are louder amps out there as this is only 60 watts, but this amp is more than loud enough to cause hearing damage. Now for all those reviews where they say it over heats. Look people this is a CLEAN 4 channel amp. Do not run subs off it!!! Why on earth would you run subs from a 4 channel, verus a 1 channel d-class is beyond me. Just pain stupid. So yes if you use the amp for something it wasn't meant for it might over heat..

Strengths:
Excellent sound quality for the price. Also very reliable.

Weaknesses:
None. Some people say that they have a problem with this amp getting hot but I never had any such problems and on many occassions I ran it very hard for long periods of time.

Summary:
I had this amp runnning a set of Focal components and a set of eclipse point source 6x9's. The amp is very clear and clean. I was very pleased with it even though it's moderate power rating. I never had a single problems with it. I would reccommend this amp for an entry level system that does not have an over abundance of bass because I found with my two 12's in the trunk with the seat folded down(which is the only way to use subs) on some tracks with a very large amount of deep bass the components and 6x9's had a little trouble keeping up, but with a single 10 or 12 off a seperate amp this amp and the right components this would be a great starter amp. I also would like to say that I overpaid and if you look around you can probably find a pretty good deal on it.

Strengths:
Great output specially if you are looking for a lot of bass...

Weaknesses:
does get really hot and for long (over 2-3 hours) drives it may shut down for a few seconds to cool... but mine is mounted on the back of my seat and stays cooler..

Summary:
Best amp ever. It powers two jbl 12" subs and makes my hair stand when the volume is maxed out. this amp is great for subs and Eclipse rates their amps at less than what they actually can do... you do the math, this amp works great and i won't replace it til it dies....
