Strengths:
Low price, Kickeq, easy controlls, good power, clean look.

Weaknesses:
Struggles with the heavy solo baric, thermal shutdown occassionally on hot days.

Summary:
What can I say? This is a solid sub amp all around. It does sound WAY better if equipped with an eq. I run it with an Alpine head unit, using it to power a single Kicker solo baric 10. It LUMPS for sure! But when I run it bridged, through my Clarion eq, it just cannot be beat. For the dollars there is no better amp.
