  • Key Specs
    • Continuous Watts x Channel @ Ohms: 300 x 1
    • Maximum Watts x Channel @ Ohms: 300W x 1 x 2 ohms (This is the maximum load the speaker, subwoofer or amp can drive.)
    • 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: Variable (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: Variable (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.)

Q: What is the RMS and OHM rating on this amp?

A: It's rated at 300 watts RMS at 2 ohms or 150 rms at 4ohms. But theyre under rated as far as power is concerned

Q: compatable with factory systems

A: It will not be as easy as plug and play. The amp that comes in that car uses specialized connections to hook the amp to the sound system. At least the connections on the amp side are like that. I'm not sure what the other end looks like as I don't have that car. There may be an adapter that will allow you to use this amp in a plug and play fashion, but I couldn't find one. Nevertheless, it shouldn't be too difficult to add this amp. If you're not sure how, I would recommend letting Geek Squad install it for you. As far as this amp goes though, I highly recommend it. I have one that I use with a kicker sub and it gets really loud. Sounds great, no distortion.

Q: Is this a good amp to get for someone who has two 12 inch subwoofers?

A: i ended up getting the cx600.1 for my 2 12's
