This product is exactly what it is advertised to be. As all skar products I've used and installed for others. They over deliver with quality and dollar for dollar they can't be beat.
This amp may be small but packs a nice punch and the price point is amazing.
Let me start out saying I’ve used the skar rp 1500.1,& the rp 1200.1, & I run an old skool phoenix gold 500.4 amp on my morel made phoenix gold ti elite comp set for sound quality up front- the amp box is smaller than my 500.4 amp, and this sk-m500.1 d fits in my hand and is smaller than my elite passive xover. Upon using my o-scope,& my subs are wired at 1.3ohms, for gain setting,& Im sending 8vts to this amp, this amp does not
Clip till 27vts ac, so mine is putting out 640-650 watts and sounds great. I wish the power inputs were 4gauge, but for size I understand its 8 gauge. DONT HESITATE TO BUY THIS AMP! Its a STEAL, its accurate, clean output on my subs. The owners manual says it can handle 8volts input ,& I use a line driver to deliver it. As per the norm., great job skar, affordability,& quality!( I wish it did have bass boost, for just a little more “ umph”, but I can do that with my dsp:) Im not leaving my ground like this, it was for quick instal purposes. I will be shorting it,& adding the braid along w/heat shrink
Before I purchased this amp, I was skeptical about buying it. I'm a car audio lover, and won't just buy any amp especially one I've never heard of. So many are overrated. So I've always bought JL AUDIO, Rockford Fosgate, and Orion amps, period . With that being said, now SKAR AUDIO will be added to that short list of mine . I bought the RP800-1D And I have nothing negative to say about it. 6 out of 5 star rating if you ask me . Keep up the good work guys. Love it. And don't slack off to become Overrated ya feel me
I have a vd-10 d2 wired to 1 ohm. This amp is perfect. The bass knob is a little testy at times and you might have to wiggle the wire but once it’s mounted solid it’s perfect. 100% worth every cent
