Camp runs good but hot I think it's because I have 2 400 watt speakers on it but all in all it sounds great
I purchased these amplifiers after watching hours of Youtube video's and reading countless reviews. I have always used Rockford Fosgate Punch series amplifiers but figured I would give Skar a chance. I took my time on my install and was meticulous to make sure the install was to my standard as I have been doing this for 35 years. When I first set my gains and high and low pass settings the amplifiers sounded great and I was pleasantly surprised. The problem happened when I shut the system off and the mids and highs produced a loud POP. From my experience that is an issue with the amp. I know back in the day some of the cheaper amplifiers would do that and we had to use a resistor or cap from the remote wire to ground to bleed off the excessive voltage and relays issue in the amplifiers circuit board. I don't think a amplifier that is bragged about by so many should do that. So my score given is based on the disappointment I experienced when the RP150.4AB produced the loud POP. I messaged Skar customer service and brought up my issue and all they replied back was I was on the right track.??? Not funny. Customer service should be there to solve problems not leave me hanging. Customer service did not offer a solution to my problem and a What do you expect me to do feeling I perceived from them. I hope this isn't to winded but facts are what they are...Facts.
The RP2000.1D worked as expected and I was happy with the results. It definitely puts out it's rated power with ease. My feelings of Skar audio are mixed between good and bad. I've dealt with a lot of company's in my time and have never had such a vague response from customer service ever. Come on Skar, I have a thread with over 52,000 views and feed back about my vehicles. One is all Rockford power and one is Skar powered and one had 0 issues and we know the other one .........
This amp has great power out put but the sound quality was what stood out the most. Running a pair of fsx 6.5in amd 8in on it and it woke them right on up while delivering top quality. As always Skar gives you more than what you pay for and I will continue to build full Skar audio set ups!
Installed this amp today.....absolutely no complaints so far. I have it powering a set of Infinity Kappa Components.....loud and clear.
This is a very powerful amp and sounds very nice. I am sure, with a little tweaking as I break it in, it will only get better.
Amp does not run hot....and pretty cool that it is the same size as the other amp I installed (RP-2000.1D).
I had been thinking of ordering SKAR gear for my ride for some time now.....wish I would have ordered sooner.
O scope verified 312 watts ch 1&2 and 700 watts if I bridge 3&4 sound is crystal clear on my infinity kappa components
