      Kicker 800.1 Review

      This amp was purchased to power my JL 10" subwoofers. They are wired to 2 ohms, and this amplifier is a perfect match. I have abused this amp every day for over one month, and it rarely gets hot. It is super small, so it can be mounted almost anywhere. I am blown away by the sound produced by such a small unit. If you are on the fence about buying, I can assure you that you won't regret it.

      Superb little amp!

      I initially got the CXA400.1 and it was a great amp, but my speakers required a higher 4ohm rms, so I exchanged it for this amp. Incidentally this is the same size as the CXA400.1 it was Exactly what I needed. Kicker is super reliable, and very well built. I got an aftermarket bass knob for this and I have to turn it down to about 1/3 of the rotation. Bass is incredible. I don’t like listening to loud bass but I do like a little more depth to my music. This may be overkill for my needs but I guess I can thump anytime I want!

      Great Small Amp!

      Great small amplifier. I am using this Kicker 800.1 to power 2 Kicker 12" CompVR 4ohms Subwoofers in a sealed 1.25 cubic feet box and it BOOMS great. I have my 2 subs wired in a parallel connection to make it a 2ohm load and I am sure this cxa amp is putting out what it states - 2ohms 600watts rms. One small problem I had the first week of using this amp was it would go into protect mode. I looked at my power/ground wires and agu fuse and they looked okay. I doubled checked my agu fuse again and found the problem. It was not blown but the connection inside this fuse was loose so it did not give this amp the current/voltage it needed to power up so that is why it would go into protect mode. I switched to MANL fuse instead and now I have no more problems whatsoever anymore. I am happy with this purchase!

      Great Buy! Powerful!

      Very compact! I have this installed in my 2018 Honda Accord and it is mounted to the bottom of my rear deck as I didn't want it on my back seat. This is pushing a 12" Kicker CompVX sub (previously a 12" CompR) and it hits hard, actually more bass than I intended to get. I had to lower my bass level. Definitely recommend especially if you can get it on sale.

      Great Little Amp

      This thing packs a punch and it super small to be mounted almost anywhere! Came rated at 878 RMS @ 1 Ohm but I’m Running it with a single 12” L7T 2 ohm hopefully pushing around 600RMS Barley turned over halfway on the amp and paired with the bass knob my system hits perfectly.

    Questions & Answers

    • Will this amp work well with two 12 kicker comp r’s individual boxed 2 ohm fully loaded or should I purchase a bigger kicker amp? Each sub is 500 watt rms and 1000 watt peak power.

      The KICKER CXA800.1 is rated to develop 800 Watts RMS in to a 1-ohm load. The KICKER CompR 12" Subwoofer is rated at 500 Watts RMS and with using a pair of them (2) you would be at a total RMS power rating on your speaker system of 1000 Watts RMS. For maximum performance of your speaker systems, KICKER recommends using an amplifier that is rated to produce X Watts RMS that is within +/- 20% of your speaker systems RMS rated power. So, with a 1000 Watt RMS rated speaker system, KICKER recommends using an amplifier that falls within the 800-1200 Watts RMS range. Always keep in mind that smaller amplifiers will also sound great but just not get you the full output (SPL, loudness) potential of your speaker systems.
