Strength:
Crystal clear highs. Transparent-sounding - doesn't color source. Flexible - 3 sets of inputs, as well as speaker-level inputs. Incredible EQ adjustment and crossover capabilities. (Which I don't use, since these types of circuits tend to color the sound) Amp has "bypass" mode to avoid EQ circuitry.
Weakness:
A little more power in the subwoofer channel would be a plus. Excellent car amplifier. Clean highs, balanced mids, tight bass with appropriate subwoofer. Currently running it with a Sony CDX-M770 deck (5.5v preouts) with stock speakers in my 2001 VW Jetta, and a JL Audio W0 10" subwoofer in a sealed box. Unbelievable clarity and definition.

Looks good, lots of options/flexabilty, nice sound, graphic is great.
Weakness:
dosent last long, quit big, and i paid to much for it 309.00 GBP, US sells it for half what i paid, but thats rip off britain, try www.onlinecarstereo.com Well how do i start, this amp was everything i needed, it runs my 10" Sub, my front componants, and my rear 6x9s, it sounded great, untill yesterday it went POP, what a load of crap, i have had many AMPS in my time (when i was younger) and none of them failed, this was my first Sony and untill this happened i was very inpressed, the amp is just over a year old and im hoping that somthing can be done< if not it will be a well worded letter to sony!

Strength:
The equalizer is really a nice feature. Between the eq and the filters there is a lot of fine tuning you can do with this amp. It's also very versatile.
Weakness:
I get a lot of engine noise with this amp that I didn't get from my Alpine. I turned the gain down and that helped a lot. I've got two of these and they are very loud. They give plenty of power to complete and entire system and the different ways you can hook them up is a real advantage. It takes 2 or 3 RCA inputs or speaker level inputs if your deck has no RCA preouts. Pretty nifty if you wanted to keep the stock deck for appearance. Anyway, I think they sound great too.

Strength:
Super easy to set up. Built in crossover and eq makes all the differance
Weakness:
Sub channel could use a little more power. Say 150 watts. I think that would even it out a little more. Easy set up, easy configuration. Little light in the bottom, but if you want clean sound with good detail. You can'f beat this amp for the money. Similar Products Used: Optimus 2 and 4 channel amps. Boss 250w single channel |
