Beware of open box purchases
||Posted .This rating isn’t about the product but about open box items! You would think they would check customer returns instead of just listing as open box! What a waste of time!

Great solution for lot's of situations !
||Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.I had been thinking about purchasing this amp for a couple years, I have a vintage car and really didn't want to cut the dash to install a newer style stereo. and since i have a large music collection on my iphone, it just seemed like a great idea. I was surprised how small it as was and I was able to install the unit under one of my seats hook was easy. if it's turned on my iphone hooks up easily as soon as I get in my car. The sound great the only thing that lacking is deep base. it's plenty loud enough,

What experts are saying
Q: QuestionI need an amp that produces 100 watts x 2. With all the doubletalk in the specs, I can't figure out if this is the amp I need. (how do you figure an amp only capable of 45 watts x 4 is a 400 watt amp? Doesn't 45 x 4 equal 180???
Asked by phord.
- A:Answer I guess nobody at Best Buy, or Kenwood reads or cares about answering these questions. I asked this in December, and posed the exact same question to Kenwood USA customer support. Neither has responded. I am dumbfounded.

Q: QuestionWill this amp fit in the fairing of a HD Street Glide?
Asked by strick.
- A:Answer Yes.. it should. I have a 2016 Police Electra and it fit inside the fairing with no issues. It should fit on top of a metal bracket/shelf just above your radio or glovebox depending on what model you have. Hope that helps..

Q: QuestionWill this unit provide 100 watts max to each speaker ? I purchased the alpine 45w max per channel. I thought it would be better then nothing. Max output on the Kenwood unit I installed is 45 per channel. How would this unit stand up compared to Alpine?
Asked by Beach.
- A:Answer Depending on installation, it could easily outperform the alpine. I am an alpine fan, but the kenwood amp is rich with features and am sure you won't be disappointed. It powers 4 5-1/4' and two 6.5' with ease and little distortion. I use it on my harley and it easily keeps the volume above my loud pipes and wind noise.
