i would not recommend this amp...i bought it for 100$ and i thought it was a waste of money. I got it installed in my car and immediatly took it out 2 minutes later. It was powering a 10 inch subwoofer and when I turned up the volume the amp would cut out. Needless to say I returned it after that

For the money, it is hard to beat this sub. It has worked extremely well, even with me putting 700w through it for the past couple of months. It is delivering some good base in my car, and I didn't have to spend a fortune.

I needed a slim line power amp to boost the base line in my BMW, after trying two other manufacturers, i tried the Crunch P1100 and was presently suprised. The thing is loud, i am using it to power a 12 inch woofer in a sealed enclousure and it rocks. Lots of controls to taylor the exact sound quality from boomy to very, very deep bass. In addition the lighted sign just looks cool in the trunck. and for the price? its a steal

Pioneer TS-D1320C 5.25-Inch Rev-Series 180-Watt Speaker Package Review

Pioneer TS-D1320C 5.25-Inch Rev-Series 180-Watt Speaker Package
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Installed in a 2004 Taurus in the front doors. I flush-mounted the tweeters in the triangle-shaped A-pillar cap by the side mirror. Used a 1 7/8" forestner bit to make perfect holes in the plastic. Looks super slick. Sound was clear and sharp, but distorted easily at first, even powered only by the factory HU. After about eight hours' listening time, however, the highs were more defined and natural, the mids bloomed into a rich fullness, and the bass is pretty good for their size, but I have a twelve in the trunk so I got these for the sound quality, not bump-ability. Awesome set of speaks, worth the price. Comes with an adapter plate for 6x8 locations, which I used, and I put the crossovers inside the door. Comes with everything but speaker wire. Intermediate automotive audio skills required. Tested with Outkast's Speakerboxxx/The Love Below, Dave Mathew's Band's Before These Crowded Streets, and Alice in Chains' Jar of Flies. The hip-hop sounds slick but breaks up fast due to scooped eq'ing in the mix. The Alice in Chains is very good quality, but the DMB record sounds the best. Also tried Steely Dan, various tracks with studio monitor-like accuracy in my car. Awesome!

This 5-1/4-inch component system from Pioneer delivers 180 Watts of maximum power (35 Watts nominal), and offers the flexibility and improved soundstage of a component installation. The woofers are rock-solid, literally--basalt fiber (interwoven with aramid) is extremely rigid and lightweight, for serious sound integrity. Pioneer's rear chamber tweeter enclosures boast an extended mid-range frequency, which means improved vocal imaging. And the included crossovers ensure a smooth response from both.

I have used this amp to power a 12" Kicker Comp. Sub and have been very satisfied. The amp is bridged, and provides sufficient power, while looking good doing it. Can't comment on any other applications, but if you are looking to power a single subwoofer I can say that this will do the job.

I've had this amp pusing a 10" kicker CVT bridged and it's pushing my sub to it's limits with no distortion, clipping, or overheating. It's a great amp for a basic system like I have and in this price range, I doubt you can find better. It's extremely clear all the way up to maximum volume and so far, I couldn't be happier with it.

A beefy power increase. An all-new design featuring an extruded heatsink with a brushed metallic surface. Speaker level inputs for easy connection to OEM headunits. Oversized power terminals. Bottom line? The 2-channel GM-5400T is a huge value in a small package.

Average Reviews:

I had a feeling I would be pretty happy with this thing when I saw how big it was and heavy it is. This thing is a beast and it doesn't disappoint. Much like the longer reivew written above, I've never heard such crisp clear highs and solid bass in a car system until I put this in mine. I am running this with Focal 6 1/2 components up front, 6x9's in the rear and a 10" power coustic sub in a ported box. I have the gain (amp volume) on all the channels at just under half and it's already incredibly loud and clear. I would definitely recommend this amp, I acutally never write reviews but I'm so impressed with this that I just have to. GO BUY IT NOW< TRUST ME lol, you won't regret it. Just make sure to get speakers that can handle the juice this thing can pump out....and Enjoy!!

Product was great - at first. Then it died - spewing smoke and all! But things happen. So I contacted Audiobahn - and that is when it all started. They will not honor their own warranty unless you buy from one of their "authorized resellers'. This was buried in the product's manual and not even mentioned on the warranty card that I filled out and returned when this was first purchased. Many emails over a month long period provided no solution. The responses that I received from the "customer service manager" demonstrated that they had no concern for my business. I will go so far as to say that they were curt & rude in their responses. At no time could they come up with a reason for not standing behind their product. I refuse to do business with a manufacturer that has such little concern for their customers. Look elsewhere for a quality product that has a reputable manufacturer standing behind their products!

MTX JackHammer JH600 - Amplifier - 1-channel Review

MTX JackHammer JH600 - Amplifier - 1-channel
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Bought this product in january and it absolutly pounds the stuff out of my subs, which i have matching jackhammer 12" in a ported box. Works great at 2 ohms and it can work 4 ohms too. Would recommend this product to anyone new to car audio since this is a great buy for the price and performance. The wattage on the actual unit is about 630 rms for 2 ohms, 390 rms about for 4 ohms and about 1400 watts for peak power at 2 ohms. Mtx has never let me down and package arrived very fast 1 day after purchacing 4-7 day shipping from [...].
Pros: Solid amp, lots of wattage for the price, great features. Can play in winter or summer(i tested it out so far in winter in negative temps and it works great after it warms up).
Cons: None so far(Mtx brand will last)

Rockford Fosgate Punch 500-Watt Stereo Amplifier Review

Rockford Fosgate Punch 500-Watt Stereo Amplifier
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
My oldschool U.S. amp finally bit the dust (10years). I first purchased a Lanzar Vibe to replace it, unhappy with sound quality I broke down and bought the P5002.The P5002 sounds fantastic, hooked up with ease, and does not even get warm while pounding my subs!

Whether you're looking to drive high frequency component speakers or low frequency subwoofers, the P500-2 has the power and flexibility you need to put some serious PUNCH in your vehicle. The power available from such a small amp means it's a great match for a 2-ohm DVC subwoofer or pair of 8-ohm SVC subwoofers.

P500-2 Features
Features:
12dB/octave crossover
4 Gauge power/ground terminals
Audiophile grade speaker connections
MOSFET output stage
MOSFET power supply
RCA pass-thru
Top Mounted LED Indicators

CEA-2006 CompliantPower ratings on Rockford Fosgate amplifiers conform to CEA-2006 industry standards. These guidelines mean your amplifier's output power ratings are REAL POWER numbers, not inflated marketing ratings.
Differential Inputs Differential input circuitry measures the voltage of both the (+) and (-) input signal. The circuitry subtracts the voltage common to both conductors (noise) resulting in only the clean signal. This allows only clean signal to enter the amplifier.
DSM (Discrete Surface Mount)DSM utilize 1% tight-tolerances improving efficiency of the circuit, decreases cross-talk from other discrete components and lowers operating temperature.
Dynamic Thermal ManagementEvenly distributes excess heat across entire amplifier heatsink.
MEHSA3MEHSA3 reduces MOSFET temperatures, lowers distortion, increases durability and prolongs the output device life span.
NOMADNOMAD is a "real time" analog computer that protects your amplifier from shorting speaker wires and dangerously low speaker impedances.
Punch EQ2Onboard equalizer with up to +18dB @ 35Hz and/or up to +12dB boost at 12kHz.
TO-247 MOSFETsRockford Fosgate amps use custom TO-247 MOSFETs. These have 60% more metal tab area for more power capacity, lower impedance and improved heat dissipation over traditional TO-220 MOSFETs found in competitor amps.
TRANS·anaTrans·ana simplifies the signal path of the amplifier allowing the signal to travel through the amplifier at a lower voltage. The result is greater reliability and exceptional sound quality.
P500-2 Specifications


Thirty Years of Rockford FosgateRockford Fosgate products have been designed and engineered in Tempe, Arizona since the beginning. Rockford's 30 year reputation is grounded in engineering and manufacturing some of the finest audio products in the world.

Polk Audio PA200.4 4-Channel Bridgeable Power Amplifier Review

Polk Audio PA200.4 4-Channel Bridgeable Power Amplifier
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I purchased this Polk Audio PA200.4 amplifier as part of an (initially) reasonably priced stereo upgrade for my 2006 Prius. However, when I received and installed the unit, I found that it introduced a noticeable (and extremely annoying) hiss into my system. This noise was present in all of my speakers (especially the tweeters) at any volume even when the amplifier wasn't connected to any inputs. Thinking that it was a problem with the particular unit that I received, I exchanged it for an identical unit and had the same issue. Eventually, I replaced this Polk amp with a nicer (and more expensive) JL Audio XD400/4 amplifier, which provided much cleaner and more powerful output in a smaller package. I understand that these amps are not directly comparable due to their price difference, but my experience has been to avoid the bottom-line amps from any manufacturer. I have been enjoying a more expensive Polk amp in my other car for the last few years, so I don't suggest that Polk amps all have this issue. However, the PA200.4 is certainly a dud in their product line. *Note: I should also mention that the coating on the rails of this Polk amp seems to corrode over time such that a white powdery finish forms at the surface. The first unit that I received had this problem worse than the second, but it was apparent in both. Although this "corrosion powder" looks like it will brush off, it is impossible to remove completely.

Alpine Type-X SPX-17REF - Car speaker - 75 Watt - 2-way - component
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have these installed in my 1998 Honda Civic coupe. I have an Alpine head unit and an Alpine MRP F300 amp that sends 50 watts RMS to these speakers which I have installed in the front doors. I don't have a sub-woofer so these and a pair of Alpine SPR 69C 6x9's make up my car audio system. I've had Pioneer and Rockford Fosgate components in other vehicles and I am very pleased with these for the price. I purchased them at Dealer Cost Car Audio dot com, with no tax and free shipping for $176, there was also a $20 coupon online which made the price great. With components like these the high's and mid's are perfect. My car is older and its a Honda so the road noise is pretty loud at 70 MPH, these help me forget about the road noise during my commute. If you think component speakers like these will add solid low end bass, you are wrong. The low end sound is good but not near sub-woofer good, if you want booming base get a sub. I rock out with hard rock and get G'd up from the feet up with hip hop and these speakers perform better than I expected. I would recommend these to anyone who wants a quality pair of component speakers who enjoy listening to any song's full dynamic range. There are cheaper speaker out there, but in my opinion Alpine's quality is awesome and these are worth the price.
