The amp features overheat protection, DC offset, short protection, and under-voltage protection. The amp will pump 950W continuously into one 2Ω speaker or 600W into one 4Ω speaker. The amp features one 150A fuse which will, according to our calculations, allow the max power output of 1843W. Most of 2-channel, 3-channel, and other multichannel amps are class-AB amps. Some amps have RCA inputs that can receive both signal types (speaker level and low-level signals). They publish some numbers but these numbers are quite arbitrary and don’t represent the actual power output of their amps. XTR1500.1Dz comes along with a wired bass remote, user manual, and 1-year warranty. The amp doesn’t look very sophisticated, but it does look nice in the dark because of the blue lighting (backlit Hifonics logo and ports). This equation is just a simplified practical form of the Ohm’s Law. According to our calculations, the amp can output up to 432W (approximately). It feels like the manufacturer doesn’t care about giving the full specs. If you, for example, have two or four 4Ω speakers with 250W RMS rating, you will need a 2-channel or 4-channel amp that can output at least 250W continuously (or more) per channel. That’s another thing you should consider when buying an amp. If you can’t spend more than $160, APCL-15001D is a perfectly viable choice. It also has RCA outputs for strapping. The remote is sold separately which is a bit disappointing considering the price. The amp is quite small and compact – it’s 10in long, 10in wide, and 2.54in tall. The SKv2-1500.1D is conservatively rated at 1,500 Watts RMS power, and at max power output can produce more than an astonishing 2,200 watts. Our article on 9 best 1500-Watt amps is designed to help you understand what to look for and what to avoid. According to the CEA-certified specs, RXA-T1 will push 125W per channel continuously (at 4Ω) or 185W per channel (at 2Ω). You have a few. It’s not super-small but it should fit your trunk fairly easily. This brings us to the second chapter. T1500-1bdCP features RCA low-level inputs and RCA outputs. See the affiliate disclaimer here. You can also adjust the bass to your likings thanks to bass boost (up to 10dB) and bass remote. XTR-1500.1Dz has some crazy power ratings. The manufacturer publishes only max power outputs (1500W at 2Ω, 750W at 4Ω). BRX1516.1D has overload, overheat, and short circuit protection. and they all confirm these impressive power ratings. These amps are advertised as 1500W amps, but they can actually output 1500 Watts continuously (1500W is their RMS, not their peak power output). What do you want to accomplish? It’s not going to give you a perfectly accurate power output but it represents a nice guideline and it could give you the basic idea of what an amplifier is capable of. Those relatively affordable amps ($100-$200) offer pretty decent performance and, if you are trying to save some money but still get satisfying results, you should set your budget at $200. All those budget amps made by generic brands are not as good as the manufacturers are claiming. You see, there are many budget amps on the market but most of them (if not all) are not capable of delivering the advertised power outputs. The amplifier is fused at 80A (it uses two 40A fuses). Like all the other cheap amps, RXA-T1 can’t push 1500W. So, it’s quite slim and it should easily fit under your seat. The amp is sleek and simple-looking. Our equation says that the max power output is 1152W (at 1Ω) but, in reality, it can deliver even more (you should watch those dyno tests on YouTube). It’s compact and relatively small. BRX1516.1D features only low-level RCA inputs. Some manufacturers, especially cheap generic brands, are not very honest about the power ratings. As we’ve said earlier, you can hardly figure out if the advertised power ratings are RMS or Peak, but according to our calculations, these are probably the peak values. The package contains your R1600M car amp, wired bass remote, mounting screws, user manual, and 1-year warranty. We are presenting to you Skar Audio SKv2-1500.1D, class-D mono amp. So, if you have some more demanding speakers (something like 300W RMS each), this amp is not a good choice. The situation with wiring kits is quite simple. Based on the Amp Dyno tests, this class-D mono amp can deliver 1500W continuously (at 1Ω) or 930W (at 2Ω). You can also install and use the bass level remote instead of bass boost knob on the unit.
