Review 2 of 11

Price Paid:  $0.00 from Came with the truck

Year / Model Reviewed:
1998 Dodge Dakota

Strengths:
Bang for your buck! These things are cheap as heck for the quality you get. and the visatility is unmeasureable

Weaknesses:
Makes me wanna slap some skateboard wheels on the bottom of the thing. Its a very large unit

Summary:
My amp came with the truck so the search wasn't that hard. Figured that I would grow tire of it and use it as scrap. I had this amp for over 3 years now and it still suprises me on what it can push! I had it set up @1ohm, 4 ohm, DVC DD, 4 Orion N/T, and a few other trial setups that the other guys amp wasn't pushing enough. Total suprised! I ended up getting a matching 4 channel to run my setup. For the price of the two, I'm suprised on the clearity and power it can muster up. It does warm up a touch but @1 ohm with 12vlts..... it just going to challenge any amp. the size of the unit will make up for the heat and push it away from the unit. I had this amp running 1ohm in the bed of my truck, cover over the bed, with Missouri heat wave, and it never skipped a beat for a 3 hour road trip would willingly recomend this amp to anyone. Never thought a Sony amp would hold up soo well

Review 3 of 11 , from Bedford, TX, US

Price Paid:  $250.00 from Mastercard Repo

Year / Model Reviewed:
 1998

Strengths:
It is the best value,1/2 ohm stable, best used to power any subs, most people bridge a amp and sub to get more power, In this case you dont need to it produces enough power TRUST ME. comes with a built in FAN

Weaknesses:
It requires 14.4 volts to opperate correctly, as everone before says it gets hot, thats because they dont have 14.4 volts, thats a lot of power, more than most amps use, if amps dont get enough voltage then they tend to get very hot, mostly the size is the weaknesses almost perfect amp

Summary:
This sony amp is by far the best amp I have ever owned, when use correctly with care a the right voltage 14.4 volts its the toughest amp out, pheniox gold cant even come close to the amount of power this amp puts out for the money, by far the best amp for the dollar.It powers my 2 Rockford Fosgate HE2's like a thunder bolt in my camaro
