Strength:

Great power. Using it to drive all my door speakers, Have used it for bass when my kenwood monoblock died and DIDNT even notice the KAC 9104D was not in.. Hold on to this amp if you got it

Weakness:

YOU MUST LOOK AT OHMS, If you throw 2 subs are 2ohms its not gonna sound good, because although its 2ohm STEREO stable, ots only 4 Ohm stable bridged! Which really isnt a weakness. If using 2 subs then connect the DVC so each sub is 8 ohms

Other then making sure the amp sees the correct impedence. These are wonderful, and unlike that new false rating crap.. its marked 400, but actually max is 800 according to the service (Repair) manual. I also added a external electronic crossover to make vocals SCREAM!

Weakness:

BIG AS MOTHER LOL
Weight just under 10lbs lol
Not so easy to find anymore

All I can Say is I've had this trucker for like 9 years and it just wont die...It thumps everything you hook it up too..... My buddys RF 800 was bumped out and if I did not see that for myself I would not belive it eather. Try one and see for yourself if its as good as mine you will be more than happy I have yet to see a 800 watt (it says 400watt)come close for the money!

Strength:

Power Quality Build Dual Cooling fans

Weakness:

NONE

I cannot believe that people are saying that this amp sucks. I have used this on just about every combination of sub configuration you can think of and I have had absolutely nothing but outstanding performance. One 15, one 12, two 12s, three 10s I mean you name it. Right now it is powering one 12 and the bass is just insane. I have had at least 3 years of use and someone owned it before I did, and to me that is a good product. If you come across one of these I would recommend that you but it, and dont listen to the bad reviews. Most people dont even know what an ohm is and most likely fry amps by not paying attention to this very important limitation. Excellent Amp!!!

This thing says 400 watts, but it doesnt sound like it. Ive got it hooked up to 2 12" JL audio subs that are able to stand up to 1500 watts, and this thing makes them jump like crazy. I didnt pay much for this amp, but i got a steal. havent had much problems out of it other than when i crank it, but it DEF puts out 400, if not somehow more...

Strength:

it looks pretty and makes my music really loud. The price was so cheap

Weakness:

it keeps shutting off after a long time. I cant listen to the whole Backstreet Boys CD without it getting super duper hot.

This shiny little gadget makes my music sound great and clear for a short time. Then I have to put on my headphones while it cools off. I recommend this to anyone who likes Ricky Martin and the Backstreet Boys. Kenwood makes some excellent things. I like their refrigerators and microwaves. I does the job for one or two of my favorite jams.

Strength:

This amplifier is great. Puts out 125 x 2 or 400 x 1. I have it hooked up to to fosgate xlc 12 and they pound. I bought this amp used for 150 a while back.

Weakness:

Well my voltage gauge goes up and down when the bass hits but i guess thats a strength for teh amp and a weakness for my car!

Great amp. Not to expensive. Good clean power.

Model Reviewed: KAC-927 2001?

Strength:

Looks, features

Weakness:

Low Power, Distortion, poor audio quality

This amplifier was connected to 2 Kicker Solobaric 12" S12D4 subwoofers. I have purchased 2 of these amps today, one for each kicker. They are going back today because I could not stand the distortion coming out of the amps. It was really bad. Mabee I got a bad batch...but wow. My jensen is cleaner than these!
I have used Older Kenwood amps before, and plan on looking into the New Excelon Series. (3 yr warranty!!) Plus they have sigma servos which control cone excursion and movement for the least amount of noise, distortion, and the most cone control. If your thinking about this amp...you might want to save your pennies, and look for something a bit better. The price is about what its worth, but if you have more cash, look into the Excelon series, or step up to the Plate of Xtant for supirior SQ.
