"Bought this amp to power my new Alpine Type-R front compnents. Seems to power them to their full potential.
girlredgirl 12:08pm on Sunday, August 1st, 2010 
great for the price I would buy again and again great price fast ship really good sound for price BEAST I am most definately pushing the crap out of this amp. 1.33 ohms, where its 4 ohm stable, its extremely clean.
xtort 7:01am on Wednesday, April 14th, 2010 
Cheap amp, nothing special I had extra car audio stuff in my closet and decided to hook it up in my truck. Solid I have to give this product a big thumbs up, its good enough to push 2 12" JBL Subs with pretty good power, accurate bass.
shujask 7:30am on Monday, April 12th, 2010 
"This is a Very good amp, but the only problem i had was i had one 12inch Kenwood Sub running Bridged. "I bought this amp to power a set of Soundstream 12' Tarantula series subs in a 2007 Peterbilt road tractor. The sound is great.

Safety precautions

2WARNING
To prevent injury or fire, take the following precautions:
When extending the ignition, battery, or ground wires, make sure to use automotive-grade wires or other wires with a 8 mm (AWG 8) or more to prevent wire deterioration and damage to the wire coating. To prevent a short circuit, never put or leave any metallic objects (such as coins or metal tools) inside the unit. If the unit starts to emit smoke or strange smells, turn off the power immediately and consult your Kenwood dealer. Do not touch the unit during use because the surface of the unit becomes hot and may cause burns if touched. Mounting and wiring this product requires skills and experience. For safetys sake, leave the mounting and wiring work to professionals.

Wiring

Take the battery wire for this unit directly from the battery. If its connected to the vehicles wiring harness, it can cause blown fuses etc. If a buzzing noise is heard from the speakers when the engine is running, connect a line noise filter (optional) to each of the battery wire. Do not allow the wire to directly contact the edge of the iron plate by using Grommets. Connect the ground wire to a metal part of the car chassis that acts as an electrical ground passing electricity to the batterys negative - terminal. Do not turn the power on if the ground wire is not connected. Be sure to install a protective fuse in the power cord near the battery. The protective fuse should be the same capacity as the units fuse capacity or somewhat larger. For the power cord and ground, use a vehicle type (fireproof ) power wring cord with a current capacity greater than the units fuse capacity. (Use a power wiring cord with a diameter of 8 mm (AWG 8) or greater.) When more than one power amplifier are going to be used, use a power supply wiring wire and protective fuse of greater current-handling capacity than the total maximum current drawn by each amplifier.

2CAUTION

To prevent damage to the machine, take the following precautions:
Be sure the unit is connected to a 12V DC power supply with a negative ground connection. Do not open the bottom covers of the unit. Do not install the unit in a spot exposed to direct sunlight or excessive heat or humidity. Also avoid places with too much dust or the possibility of water splashing. When replacing a fuse, only use a new one with the prescribed rating. Using a fuse with the wrong rating may cause your unit to malfunction. To prevent a short circuit when replacing a fuse, first disconnect the wiring harness.

Speaker selection

The input power of the speakers that are going to be connected should be greater than the output power (in Watts) of the amplifier. Use of speakers having input power ratings that are less than the output power of the amplifier will cause smoke to be emitted as well as damage. The impedance of the speakers that are going to be connected should be 2 or greater (for stereo connections), or 4 or greater (for bridged connections). When more than one set of speakers are going to be used, calculate the combined impedance of the speakers and then connect suitable speakers to the amplifier.

If you experience problems during installation, consult your Kenwood dealer. If the unit does not seem to be working right, consult your Kenwood dealer.

Combined impedance

Cleaning the unit
If the front panel gets dirty, turn off the power and wipe the panel with a dry silicon cloth or soft cloth.
Do not wipe the panel with a hard cloth or a cloth dampened by volatile solvents such as paint thinner and alcohol. They can scratch the surface of the panel and/or cause the indicator letters to peel off.
To prevent battery from running out
When the unit is used in the ACC ON position without turning the engine ON, it depletes the battery. Use it after starting the engine.

Do not install in the below locations; (Unstable location, In a location that interferes with driving, In a location that gets wet, In a dusty location, In a place that gets hot, In a place that gets direct sunlight, In a location that gets hit by hot air) Do not install the unit under the carpet. Otherwise heat build-up occurs and the unit may be damaged. Install this unit in a location which allows heat to easily dissipate. Once installed, do not place any object on top of the unit. The surface temperature of the amplifier will become hot during use. Install the amplifier in a place where people, resins, and other substances that are sensitive to heat will not come into contact with it. This unit has cooling fan to decrease the internal temperature. Do not mount the unit in a place where the cooling fan and ducts of the unit are blocked. Blocking these openings will inhibit the cooling of the internal temperature and result in malfunction. When making a hole under a seat, inside the trunk, or somewhere else in the vehicle, check that there is nothing hazardous on the opposite side such as a gasoline tank, brake pipe, or wiring harness, and be careful not to cause scratches or other damage. Do not install near the dashboard, rear tray, or air bag safety parts. The installation to the vehicle should securely fasten the unit to a place in which it will not obstruct driving. If the unit comes off due to a shock and hits a person or safety part, it may cause injury or an accident. After installing the unit, check to make sure that electrical equipment such as the brake lamps, turn signal lamps and windshield wipers operate normally.

Protection function

The protection function is activated in the following situations: This unit is equipped with a protection function for protecting this unit and your speakers from various accidents or problems that can occur. When the protection function is triggered, the Power indicator goes OFF and the amplifier stops operating. When a speaker wire may be short-circuited. When a speaker output contacts ground. When the unit malfunctions and a DC signal is sent to the speaker output. When the internal temperature is high and unit wont operate. When a ground wire of the center unit (cassette receiver, CD receiver, etc.) or this unit is not connected to a metal part serving as an electrical ground passing electricity to the battery's negative - terminal.

Connection

To prevent fire caused by a short in the wiring, connect a fusible link or breaker nearby the batterys positive terminal.
If sound is not output normally, immediately turn power off and check connections. Be sure to turn the power off before changing the setting of any switch. If the fuse blows, check wires for shorts, then replace the fuse with one of the same rating. Check that no unconnected wires or connectors are touching the car body. Do not remove caps from unconnected wires or connectors to prevent short circuits. Connect the speaker wires to appropriate speaker connectors separately. Sharing the negative wire of the speaker or grounding speaker wires to the metal body of the car can cause this unit to fail.
