Kenwood - Class D Digital Mono Amplifier with Variable Low-Pass Crossover - Black
- Key Specs
- Continuous Watts x Channel @ Ohms: 300 Watts x 1 @ 4 Ohm
- Amplifier Class: D (An amplifier's mode of operation, specifically the conditions in which its electrical current flows for the duration of an audio signal, determines its class. Each class has its strengths and weaknesses when it comes to power efficiency, levels of crossover distortion, and overall sound quality.)
- Number Of Channels: 1
- Bass Boost: None (Circuitry that boosts the bass response of the amplifier, improving audio reproduction enhancing the sound of low frequencies. Fixed boost means the level of bass response is preset, whereas variable boost allows the user to make adjustments.)
- Bridgeable: false (Bridging an amplifier increases the power it supplies to the speaker(s).)
- Low-Pass Crossover: Variable (Devices with this function allow only audio frequencies below a chosen cut-off frequency to pass through to a speaker or sound system. A device may have a cut-off frequency predetermined by its manufacturer (fixed), multiple cut-off frequency options to choose from (selectable), or have the capability for the frequency to be configured by the user (variable).)
- High-Pass Crossover: Fixed (Devices with this function allow only audio frequencies above a chosen cut-off frequency to pass through to a speaker or sound system. A device may have a cut-off frequency predetermined by its manufacturer (fixed), multiple cut-off frequency options to choose from (selectable), or have the capability for the frequency to be configured by the user (variable).)
- Speaker-Level Inputs: true (Also referred to as high-level inputs. Enables the amplifier to receive a sound signal from another device that does not have RCA, or low-level, inputs.)

- Audio
- Number Of Channels: 1
- Minimum Frequency Response: 20 hertz (Describes the maximum range of frequencies or musical tones a product can reproduce, from very low tones to very high treble tones. The minimum frequency or musical tone the speaker can reproduce. High treble tones have higher frequencies while low tones and deep bass have lower frequencies.)
- Maximum Frequency Response: 0.2 kilohertz (Describes the maximum range of frequencies or musical tones a product can reproduce, from very low tones to very high treble tones. The maximum frequency or musical tone the speaker can reproduce. High treble tones have higher frequencies while low tones and deep bass have lower frequencies.)
- Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR): 100 decibels (The ratio of the desired signal's strength to the level of background noise. A ratio higher than 1:1, which equates to greater than 0 decibels, indicates more signal than noise.)
- Bass Boost: None (Circuitry that boosts the bass response of the amplifier, improving audio reproduction enhancing the sound of low frequencies. Fixed boost means the level of bass response is preset, whereas variable boost allows the user to make adjustments.)

Product Manuals
Q: What is the impedance of this amplifier?
A: This amplifier has an impedance of 4 ohms.
Q: What type of circuitry does this amplifier use?
A: This amplifier uses Class D circuitry for reliable power handling.
Q: Does this amplifier have a variable low-pass crossover?
A: Yes, it features a variable low-pass crossover, allowing you to adjust the audio frequency from 50Hz to 200Hz.
Q: How much power does this Kenwood amplifier deliver?
A: This amplifier delivers a total power of 500 watts.
Q: What is the signal-to-noise ratio of this amplifier?
A: This amplifier has a signal-to-noise ratio of 100 decibels, ensuring clear audio.
Q: Is 8AWG wiring recommended for this amp?
A: I ran 4ga as it can draw up to 60a of current, and most CCA 8ga is only good for 40a of current. The amp runs flawlessly with 4ga, but might not get enough current running 8ga unLess you run a premium ofc 8ga- a few companies make an 8ga that can run 60a.
Q: Does this amp have an available remote?
A: Has a bass control knob wired to amp. Easy to control level of bass
Q: Can this amp be ran either 2ohms or 4
A: This amp can run to a 2ohm subwoofer. I got it powering some MTX terminators and the amp is able to do 500 watts at 2 ohms to the subwoofer.
