Model Reviewed: 2000/Zr360

Strength:

Built Kicker tough. Like a tank. easy access to wire ports. And i like my remote gain control mounted right next to my steering wheel.

Weakness:

Corner caps that cover wires on amp arent recessed so they sit right on the wires when the wire leaves the amp...thats it.

This amp blows any other amp i have used right out of my car. When i first hooked it up i was just amazed. I have it pushing (2) 12" Cerwin Vega Vega's and two 10" JL W10's and i have no problem what so ever. Best amp ever. I love it. Go buy one.

Model Reviewed: ZR360/1999

Strength:

It has a solid hit it doesn't distord my sound and I set alarms where ever I go.

Weakness:

I have nothing to complain about this unit. In fact I want the 600W now.

This is one of the best products I ever had for the price. I never liked Kicker amps, someone told me once they were real bad, and now I know he didn't know what he wa talking about. I have it driving 2 12" JL W6's and 2 12" triangular Bazookas, and I have no problems so far.

Strength:

Very strong, built like a tank, it has a huge heat sink, very powerful, this amp is definitly not for people who want little bass, its a competition amp

Weakness:

Very power hungry, but for any powerful amp thats what comes only with it......bottom line, although i am doing fine with just 1 battery and the altenator in my 97 Grand Am, but it has killed my battery once so far

This amp is a very good amp. It takes care of my 2 12'' inch Kicker XPL''s and they are rated at 1000 peak and this amp is rated at 180 x 2 at 2 ohms and it is pushing them to there full extent. This amp is VERY UNDERATED and i know it does a lot more then 180 x 2 at 2 ohms, if i had to guess i would say more like 250 x 2 at 2 ohms.

Model Reviewed: 1999 ZR-360

Strength:

Powerful!! This amp puts out a large amount of juice and powers two subwoofers EXTREMELY well! Very professional looking too. "Built like a tank" as all the professional reviewers seem to say!

Weakness:

It is a little power hungry, so you may need to add an inline capacitor to compensate for the power draw. I have a one farad cap and I''ve never had a problem with the demand however. The gain is a little difficult to adjust due to placement.

This is a very solid amplifier on many faces. It is most certainly under-rated, as most Kicker equipment is. Look at the 360''s review (done by professionals) at www.carsound.com

I''ve alway used Kicker and never had a problem. A similar product may be the Kenwood Excelon 401M.

Strength:

Very Powerful amplifier, easy to daisy chain, 550W@2ohm mono

Weakness:

heats up too fast, draws too much power, terminals too small and gain awkward to access

At one time I had one ZR360 pushing 4 Kicker Comp 15's and blew a 145 SPL. Now, I have 2 of these mammoths pushing 4 MTX Thunder 8000's and they do real well. I have a 15 farad C.A.P and 1/0 AWG power wire and my alternator cant handle the amount of current these amps require. System shuts down after 2 mins. Definitely need a bigger alternator for my Durango.

Model Reviewed: Kicker ZR 360

Strength:

excellent amps, great power, clean, excellent features w/ the modules available, though I use audio control, which I already had... I have 4 ZR360's and 2 Zr240's, and you can find them for reasonable prices

Weakness:

0

I highly recommend Kicker ZR series amps, based on my personal experience with many amps throughout the years, I really have no complaints about them, they might be a little hungry, but any amp making REAL power is, bottom line...

Similar Products Used:

PPI A600, great amp till it heated up...so, for about 10 minutes, MTX2300, good amp, could pushed some cone, the older style 2300 did anyway, not the cleanest, but respectable for the $,had the RF 500.2, 160.4, 500 was a monster, ADS, good amps, nakamichi, another good one I had, had some shiatbum amps along the way,I'll leave them out... pio, which, if you get the premier line, and dont bridge channels, they do well

Strength:

Great for subs, tons of power, and plays for long periods of time.

Weakness:

It is a little power hungry, but for a amp running a 4 guage wire it's common.

I would recommend it to anyone looking for a very relable and strong amp. I have it hooked up to two Kicker Solo- Barics. Gives grewt sound. You can bet you will be heard nice and loud down the block!

Similar Products Used:

Fosgate, Alpine, and PPI. Great amps but the kicker is really ment for gut renching bass.

Model Reviewed: Kicker ZR360

Strength:

The ZR360 is a very strong amplifyer for the rating.....it's also very sturdy, i've used it to push my 12" orion hcca in iasca in sound "Q" .
Not only did it have enough power to push that monster i also use it now
to drop ballz on my two kicker compvr 12's!!

Weakness:

NONE!

Out of all the amps in the above simular catagory, the Kicker ZR360 has more ballZ than all of them... great amp....well worth the money and hassle...a very hard amp to destroy! A very powerful bassline from an amp with a very week rating...a sure 140db or more with good subs in a good inclosure...sucks alot of juice though, so be sure to stock up on a good set of caps or a good batery for the trunk!

Juan

Strength:

Very flexiblw amp, it is able to push some serious power (either in 2ohms or 4ohms brigged mode) for long periods of time without any problems.

Weakness:

none

Flexibility and power to spare along with the modules make this amp a great choice.

Similar Products Used:

Alpine, Coustic, Rockford Fosgate. I would recomend the ZR360 over these brands.
