Great little amp love it so far. Have not experienced the over heating issues that others have. Using the amp to power a single skar vd12d2 wired at 1ohm using 4 gauge wiring with 4 8gauge adapters for power and ground. The amp was much smaller than my previous amp and fit in my factory amp rack with plenty of room around it. Built a custom sealed fiberglass slim box for my wagon to house the 12 shallow mount skar vd12 and together the little thing slams

Day 1 after my install. I spent 10 hours installing amp because i wanted a clean wire run and professionalism. Well worth every penny. Added 2 of the d2 8 skar sub woofers to my already good sounding stock system. I haven t even made an enclosure yet. I just wanted some more deeper bass. Not to rattle doors off the car but to enjoy the full depth of bass without distortion. This basic setup is in one word wow there s no starvation of deep low bass hitting low 42hz without any popping on a small piece of plywood. With my soon enclosure build i ll have to tone it down. If i want my rear trunk to fall into pieces it definitely would with these little monsters. Thank you skar for the quality and performance for small change in my wallet. Sounds like at least over 1 200 worth of quality for only 320. Wow

This amp is amazing. Fits in the palm of my hand. Hooked it up in friends audio a4. Running 1 12 inch nvx nsw122v2 in 1. 25 cu ft sealed box. Amp is running 500wx1 1ohm. We dyno tested it and it put out 486w rms 1 ohm at 14. 14volts let me tell you these little amps are amazing. . It is so small it can fit anywhere. Hookup was a breeze and i like that it uses only. 1 hex key for all wires. Amp doesn t get hot and does the power it says it does for the price and size and power it cannot be beaten. If you are thinking about getting one don t think about it just do it knowing you will be pleasantly surprised and do it now before the price goes up. This to me is undervalued. Only thing is that i wish it could accept 4 gauge wiring and 12 gauge speaker wire but nothing some wire gauge reducers and speaker connectors can t fix. 2010 audio a4 polk db 6502 components polk db652 rear doors custom sealed 1. 25 cu ft box nvx nsw122v2 12 inch

I purchased this amp to push 2 evl6. 5. I am super impressed now how much power im. Getting from such small components. I also have the sk 400x4 amp hooked to my stock speakers in my scion iq. Had a box built to skar s specs for the subs. Had another friend take it a different route and built it into the floor so my tiny car wouldnt really lose any space.

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

I just bought a new car and wanted a single sub for a little more kick. Almost went another way a memphis setup until a friend told me to check out skar and promised that i d get a much better quality product better sound and better price. Called skar the next day found out they are based in tampa as i am and was at their main office that afternoon. The customer service was phenomenal and they treated me like i was their biggest customer only i felt more like family than a paying customer. They listened and understood my so i got the best boom for my buck. Picked up this amp and a ivx v2 12 for about 200 and it sounds great at the installation the techs at best buy told me they were picking up a distortion in the signal due to having a factory head unit so i called skar and they told me turn the gain up and jam they made sure i was satisfied and got exactly what i wanted and more i highly recommend going with skar whether you want to win a competition a little more bump or just want a better sound. Definitely a lifelong customer and already have a couple of friends who are getting their stuff from them too

Gets down on my vd 8 s

Impressive sound and power coming from such a small package i have been converted to a skar customer for life i think you will not be let down with this amp

I have this amp hooked up to a kicker compr 10 in in a sealed box. Still tuning but so far this lil guy puts out good clean power. Just did a 3 hour road trip and ran cool the whole trip so no over heating issues here. Looks like they added a fan to these amps.

People can t believe it s only 300 watts

I got this amp to power an ix 8 sub on the rear deck of a audi a4. I needed an amp that would fit inside the fender under the trunk liner. I intended to mount the amp above the stock amplifier. Having a 500w amp powering a 300w sub is fine with me. Just tune it down plus theres room for upgrading later. This amp ended up being perfect for my installation. Absolutely perfect. I cut two blocks of mdf scrap for a stand spacing the skar amp above the audi amp. I am very happy with the size the quality and the price. . . Which includes a remote and a subsonic filter. Can t beat this one.

Really incredible how much power this amp puts out. . . And it does it efficiently takes my mb quart discus 10 s to their absolute limits. . . Very likely going to get some higher power subs down the line. High quality terminals quality crossover subsonic bass knob in such a small package truly amazing. Easy to tuck this amp just about anywhere. I ve owned worked with a long list of some of the great amps from many of the great manufacturers. . . This amp is right at the top of the list. . . The top for the size and easily one of the best values in all audio equipment i have ever found. Totally satisfied.

I wasnt paying attention to my first install and accidentally crossed my positive and negative wires and cooked the amp. Skar let me rma it back. . Sent me a new one installed it properly this time. . And it slams so hard. Skar you have won a new lifetime loyal customer. Oh and also the size is tiny super lightweight. I wish i could give this damn thing 6 stars thanks again yall

Great little amp small enough to put under a front seat. Just not enough power for my application.

I have had many a car amp over the years. And like most things the technology has gotten smaller but has the same power. I went with this amp as i didn t need anything too big as the boot of my mini cooper is tiny as it is and a single 10 driver takes up almost half the room. The amp powers the scar audio vd 10 d2 that i also purchased perfectly. Shipping was fast from florida and the packing material kept everything from getting damaged. The sticker in the box though was folded over and has a crease in it but that is inconsequential to the working of the products. I am still breaking in the subwoofer with this little amp and have a week or so to go before i can set it to a higher gain. Overall i am happy with my purchase and hoping for years of enjoyment.

This little amp goes and goes. It powered my 2 12in rockfords and they pound hard amazing product.

Haven t had much time with it yet. . But so far it is powering my 2 skar 10s an 2 tweeters. Sounds good to at max volume
