Strengths:
Great power, Clear sounding

Weaknesses:
I'd have to say there aren't any.

Summary:
I bought this amp to power my 1 Audiobahn Aw1200 sub. The amp pushed this 700 watt rms sub with ease. Now I'm upgrading to 2 audiobahn subs and I've alread got my mind set on the Orion Extreme 900. It's a great amp for the money. Awesome power.

Summary:
I have 2 of these amps pushing 2 infinity perfect 12.1s. They totally slam! The amps never heat up and dont put a strain on my car at all. I compared many other amps and these put out more clean loud power than most that are more expensive. T

Strengths:
Lots of power. INTELLI Q bass boost. ORION reputation. I have the amp running two RF 12" HX2's and the damn things hit loud and hard.

Weaknesses:
Fine tuning the subs can get a little tedious. Once you figure out the perfect frequency range for your sub(s), the time spent figuring it out will be well worth it.

Summary:
Before buying the amp, I considered buying the RF Punch 360.2. After looking into both amps, the XTR 375 appealed to me more. Had better features and more power. When I installed the amp, I was impressed by how clean the power was - the amp is underrated. It has alot of features that help you fine tune the subs, which can become a bit annoying at times. The INTELLI Q feature is incredible. The subsonic filter was a better help than I imagined. The amp gets very specific in frequency ranges. You have to know your subs very well to get the most out of the amp. Considering the deal I got on this, I would pay full price for it now that I see what it is capable of.

Sony - garbage. Pioneer - good amp for the money. By far, the XTR 375 has been the cleanest and most impressive. My boy has an MTX amp and it's slightly better than the Pioneer but nowhere near the ORION.
