Summary:
Awesome little amp. Dont let the size fool you. This amp has been pushing a 15" 400watt sub and it can do it no problem without breaking down. Tons of power for such a small unit. Also has a built on crossover I do not use but still nice to have. Also I love the chrome look , very nice.

Review 2 of 2

Price Paid:  $130.00 from online

Year / Model Reviewed:
2003 Thunder 282

Strengths:
Small Stylish (polished steel and matte black steel look so much better than chrome or cast steel) Perfect price

Weaknesses:
None yet

Summary:
Very nice amp. Pushing a pair of MB Quarts PSD 213s with it. Couldn't ask for a better amp. For a while I had it LPed to a pair of 6x9s until I got my components up front, now the 6x9s are running off of the HU. I'm going to get rid of this amp though, in favor of the Thunder 564 (need a 4 channel, 2 channels for the components, 2 for midbass).
