Power Acoustik RZ1-2300D 2300W Class D Monoblock Amplifier

i did not want to stray away from the alpine amps i favor so much but i was on a budget and needed something that can power my 12 inch cvr kickers. after days of looking for the right match this amps had the specs i was looking for and it was fairly price. i read so many reviews that was good to bad but i ended up buying this amp anyway. so here is my pros and cons. pros - love the all black coat, a lot of power, performs just as good as any high priced amp, a lot of bass, need to be careful when adjusting the LPF, subsonic filter and bass EQ, made the cars at my local super market alarms ring off from the thunderous bass it produced, and again A LOT of power. cons - a little heavy, hard to mount, heats up but not enough to fry it or cook an egg, and did i say its heavier than it looks. over all this is a dam good and very impressive amp well worth the money. Power Acoustik has a new customer. sorry Alpine i always will favor you but PA gave me the same power with out digging deep into my pockets.

It is 100% overrated, no doubt about it. If you're expecting this thing to push 2300 watts, or even half of that then your expectations are unrealistic. However, for the price, and especially for the size of this amp it is definitely capable. I am getting around 400 watts RMS at 4 ohms which is perfect for my Kenwood KFC-W3013PS. This amp is great for a discrete install. It is small enough to hide under seats or interior panels which makes for a clean install. It definitely packs a punch for it's size.

Wow

this amp was delivered to me dec. 23 2015, and at that time it was only $79.99, so i took the gamble and bought it even though the reviews were so mixed. i was surprised at the small dimensions of it being that i have kicker ZX1500.1 in my other car and it is literally 5 times larger, but, this little thing makes a considerable amount of power. i don't believe it will get up to 2300 watts, it would have to be @ 1ohm to achieve that wattage, and IS NOT stable for that... but its damn good on 1 12" DVC 4ohm P.A. mofo running @ approx 1.9 ohms, and only on half gain. now i've added a second 12" mofo and wired regular impedence, now putting 4 ohms to the amp, but i just turned gain up to around 80-85% and it takes care of business for sure. don't be mislead by some negative reviews, because i believe there is just too many dummies out there that don't know S*** about wiring and burn up amps and subs. i also have left a review the power acoustic mofo 12" , please read that also. this amp pairs nicely with those subs

Stopped working after one year, amplifier gets constant power and audio but cuts in and out. Something wrong with internals. Will be buying a different brand going forward, do not buy this unit
