Strength:

great power and sound without distortion.

Weakness:

only complaint is the size other than that happy

i like this amp a lot!!! i find it hard to believe that it's only a 300 watt amp. i've got it pushin one 15 inch sub and let me tell you it's beatin taht sub like you wouldn't believe.

Strength:

It has the power to push the 4 channels at 2 ohms to get more than 100 watts of power and the sub-output close to 200 watts of power,but using the entire amplifer as a mid-range amplifier including the sub channel it is a force to be reckoned with

Weakness:

The only weakness i can identify is that the sub channel could have had more power to handle speakers of higher power intake than the 200 watts it gives off,additionally the size of the amplifier is a little big compared to other products of more power and smaller size

I will admit it is a pretty looking Amplifier, it has proven to be powerful to power my entire system with loud clean midrange effect and bass boost for the sub-output with the ease to install in any car

Strength:

Only need 1 amp for 4 speakers and a sub.

Weakness:

It's on the large size. It has been discontinued.

I got this amp and a 10" subwoofer installed in my car today. This amp is AMAZING. The base is clean with a hard kick and incredible tone. It powers all of my speakers and the sub with ease and clarity.

The Orion cs500.5 is awesome for two reasons: Great sound and the convenience of having one amplifier power your entire system including subwoofer. I am using this amp with a kenwood Z919 deck, Boston Rally speakers, and a 12" sub and the sound is incredible. The only drawback is that it could be a tad bit louder, but for most people's preferences, it should be more than adequate.

Strength:

Great Connectors(easy removal for auto-x), power is just what is needed for mids and highs, great x-overs, 3 inputs

Weakness:

Connectors arent for everybody.
Could use more sub power.(its not made to be a sub only amp though)

This amp lived up and beyond the 280 dollar price tag. A five channel amp that clearly and accurately powered my entire system. It made all the sounds bright and clear. The subs hit incredible when hooked up properly. Great product overall...Too bad discontinued
