I have this powering 4 12" subs arranged in a double isobaric configuration. Honestly this amp was gonna be a placeholder until I could get something more powerful, but trust me when I say the 190W bridged is PLENTY! Due to the logarithmic scale, 190W is actually a whole lot of power. You'd need almost 2000W to double the perceived volume!
@@dennisgutierrez1672 remarkably controlled. A lot less messy than one would expect for this price. Granted I have it running on $35 drivers, which themselves can sound a little bloated at lower frequencies. But I definitely don't hear anything particularly wrong with the amp. The bass is very strong and present, not a rough approximation like some prominent cheapo brands I've heard in the past.
Got the big brother to this (a5702) on vipoutlet for like 40$ years ago and it's since been replaced. But I had it bangin on 2 ts-w261d4's wired to 4 ohms mono. Did run hot but didn't sound too bad at all and never fried. 🔉🔉
Hey have you guys thought of reviewing/comparing some Android Auto/ Apple Carplay stereos with physical volume knobs? I refuse to use buttons for volume but I'd like Android auto, too.
Sir why is there no video of pioneer GM-x952, theres not a single video of it even after I searched Google. And mine that I'm having I wanna use is a 12v adopter is just showing a red light while I'm hearing that amps have to show a green or blue light...... From Africa, Namibia
Can I power 4 speakers and a sub with this. Keeping factory head. 2017 f150 8” screen. Great videos..perhaps you could recommend a 8” sub for beyond my back seat? Don’t need much just a little extra bass. Thanks! Joe
garbage? hey dude, these is $70 2ch entry level amp, who just need small amp to power both of 6.5 speakers and super cheap. need a better amp just go to top line amp. this amp not for u
@@SUTH_33 There are many different amps for that price range that are much much better IMO. The market is saturated with products and competition is fierce these days. I wish Pioneer still made thier "Premier" head unit line....now that's a product actually worth talking about! I have had a couple for the past 20 years that still work perfect and have outstanding sound quality and equalizer parameters that were way ahead of their time. Not sure what happened to Pioneer but not a fan of their amps at all.
@@Qualitymobilevideo these are the kind of guys that buy 150 watt 2 channel amps to run 2x12in subwoofers. they cry in the review sections when their amp overheats and clips. Newsflash: these amps are designed to run 2 six by nines or a single small sub like an 8.
@@rmblwgn hi, sorry to ask you this here but you seem way too confident so i got to trust you and i'm really new to "car hifi systems" so please can you tell me if this amp could do the job with jbl gto1204br (300w rms) and a pioneer mvh s42bt (rca out 70w or 50w pre amp) ? i don't plan to use 100% of the subwoofer's capacity, and i'll surely not get close to the half power, i just want clean bass you know thanks for reading and sorry for my english, have a good day !
So I ordered this amp. I've gone through a couple of other amps with my set-up(PC audio output to amp, amp to long speaker wires to speakers(2) in another room). By "gone-through" i mean they would stop having audio(or low audio) on one side, left or right, like I blew them out. I'm not really sure what's going on with my set-up, because I don't really know what I'm doing, just being honest. What would be the proper settings for this, or is my set-up completely wrong?

Question I have alpine s-s65 80 watts rms per speaker 240 peak per speaker 480 watt total combined will this amp power these speakers at 100% efficiently? As I read you put 60 watts rms x 2 channel 4 ohms these speakers are 4 ohms I’m still new to music world so I’m assuming these speakers won’t be powered by this amp?
I just picked up the 1000w. Its ment to be 480w rms in bridged mode 4 ohms. Also its ment to do 8ohms bridged. But I don't know what the rms would be for that
Roughly 300w since it's the same as hooking up 4 ohms in stereo. The amp adds the resistances since it's class a/b 2 channel, if it was mono class d it would half them.
@@stevenstratton6930 I had it for awhile does at least the rated 480. It definitely ran hot, in my application I ended up going with a 1ohm stable monoblock @ 700wrms. I still have it though.

So many are stuck on power, build a great box or seal your doors, 65 watts is very decent! Double ISO! Sick
Dude thank you was getting 1000 watt push 4 10s so if it push ur 12 it should push my 10
How’s the bass?

Not a bad amp for an entry level or small system. Nice video.
Unless you have built pods or doors 65-90 ways is perfect
I have a 10 inch Rockville punisher to this amplifier and it sounds amazing
Best settings for this amp in ‘98 Civic. Mainly listen to metal
There is no easy answer to that, it all depends on existing equipment.
Will it power 1400w, 400w rms pioneer subwoofer?
how can I wire for speakers with that?

We are advocates for volume knobs, buttons are a PITA.

Say hi to your moth... Oh wait he's gone now
(Good review)!
In my best Boston Jim voice, say hello to yo motha for me!
So how can this be rated at 500w? Will this power two 90w rms speakers rated at 180 peak watts?
I use this amp for speakers and I have a Skar amp for subs
👌
OK can I use two of these one to power front doors and one to power my rear cab corner speakers in my f150 regular cab???
Can I power 4 speakers and a sub with this. Keeping factory head. 2017 f150 8” screen. Great videos..perhaps you could recommend a 8” sub for beyond my back seat? Don’t need much just a little extra bass. Thanks! Joe
Cool amp! Where is Boston Jim?
Unfortunately Boston is gone to do his own thing. His channel is Raiders of the lost podcast
He was annoying anyways.
Nice review 👌
Thank you 🙂
Wow good wark and and thank u for use full info and sir plize remember me on subwoofar and amp five away
Can I use this amp with 2 way separate tweet/woofer system speaker?
Yes you can!
Running 2 Alpine Type R tweets and this amp rocks for that .... I have a 1600w pioneer amp pushing 3 12s and I'm sold on pioneer amps .
How do you wire 2 4ohm 6x9's to the amp so it outputs 2ohms??
In Parallel
How terrible of a job would this amp do powering one 300 12" sub?
It’s will do quite well!
I'd use one kicker com c 10
Dude....these amps are GARBAGE! I have the GM 5300t / 760 watt, why are you lying to people? That's not right!

No this is more so for subs, you would be better off with a 5 channel amp.
This can power four speakers or a small subwoofer.
I that support for pioneer 1400w subwoofer ?
why power input terminal ( B+ ) has a gold looking, but the ground input is no. it is a copper screw?
