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: QuestionIt just mentions 4 ohm and 2 ohm speakers being driven. Will this successfully drive four (4) 8 ohm speakers?
Asked by Fred.
- A:Answer You can bridge the amp then wire both pairs of speakers in parallel. This will bring the impedance to a compatible 4 ohms.
