You need some decent subs for this amp. This amp. really doesn't play. This sucker rocks,it blew up 4 of my alpine type r dvc's.I couldn't believe it cause these woofers were brand new. I heard so much about this amp but could not believe it till i tried the shot myself.....

Strength:
NEVER heats up (at leased not yet), looks cool, can power even the biggest subs with plenty of juice to spare.
Weakness:
I worry about the plexi-glass bottom, but if anything happens to it, i got a good d**n warrenty.! Great amp. It pushes my subs great. I have 2 Cadence 12" Beasts. I cant say enough good things about this amp! Similar Products Used: MTX 81000D Class-D Amp, MMATS D100HC & MMATS D200HC, & this amp is a little bit louder but a lot cleaner than the MTX 81000D, & I couldnt choose between the MMATS amps and the Cadence A7 amp, but i ch |

Strength:
POWER !!! 1200w @ 1 ohm, don''t get much better than that. Small design. Plexiglass underneath.
Weakness:
Remote gain eq is pretty sensitive. Not much range. Best amp I have ever had. Its a creeper, everyone thinks its about a 500 W amp. I have it pushing 2 15 w-4''s. (Okay not "pushing", KILLING.) Warning though, be careful, I call it a sub killer. I am on my 4th pair of 15''s because of it. Similar Products Used: PPI 2300, MTX blue thunder4 channel 250 watt, Kicker zr 1000 |

Strength:
Power, Power, and more power
Weakness:
None yet I think that this amp is a great deal for your money. It is puts out a great amount of power and keeps on pushing the subs. I have 3 10's and it hits hard with this amp and the remote is on min. I would definately get this amp again and recommend it to anyone. Great amp. Similar Products Used: I had a 800a2 and this blows it out of the water. so much tighter bass and a heck of a lot louder |

Strength:
POWER, NUTS, BALLS, HUGE ASS BASS
Weakness:
cant get it to play soft! This amp is worth its weight in gold. I holds it own agains all of the other three amps, if not beter. The MTX 1000D is also a great amp! Linked togeather creates unbelieveable power, 3000 watts. Need I say anymore my friends? I paid 460 (including shipping), but I understand you can find them as cheep as $320. I'd like you to look around and see if you can find 1200 watts at about $0.26 per watt! or 3000 watts for $0.21 per watt! its worth it! true class d, I havent had it get very WARM in hard hour long sesions. drawing 85 amps at full output, its a much more efficent (95% efficent) than, say, a class A or AB amp, which would draw about 135 amps! Stick with the A7+HC! Similar Products Used: ZR1000, MTX 1000D, BD1000 |

2000 A7+HC
Strength:
Power, looks, Power, ummm, did I say the Power
Weakness:
None I like it's overall power the most. I have 1 running A7+HC running to each of my 2 Crossfire BMF Modified 15"s and they are loud. I also have 1 battery per amp hooked up to make sure I have the right amount of juice and a SVR 80 under the hood. The controls on the amp are easy to use and are very visible, which is a plus. Another great thing is the ability to daisy chain the amps together to get over 3000 watts from 2 of the amps at 2 ohms. The cheapest that I found them brand new online was about $420. I found 2 and paid $320 for 1 and traded a RF woofer and $100 for the other, so the out of pocket expense wasn't that much. I would highly recommend these amps to everyone. I have ran these for 4 plus hours with no failure what so ever. The only way they will heat up and shut down is if you have the gain at maximum and do a constate nonstop, full volume for 2 hours. Anybody should know NOT to do that. This amp has pure class d power. If you apply more volts to the amp, it will result in more watts. Beautiful amp with a clear plexi bottom and a beautiful finish on it. The remote knob is good, but it is not a bass boost, it is a gain adjustment. Similar Products Used: Concept CC1200d |

Strength:
lots of power for the money, very clean signal
Weakness:
thermal meltdown after maybe two hours of hard use amp shutsdown after 2 hours of hard use, my rf 800.2 got very hot but never shutdown, I think people should shop around for something better if you like to play your music for long periods of time, it would be the perfect amp if it wouldn't shutdown, but it does and thats why i would never own another one Similar Products Used: rf 800.2 |
