does anyone know if this amp is good or not?its a kenwood KAC-729S 600W.

 

ive heard that the kenwood amps are lacking but havent had any real experience with them

 

they are crap you would be lucky to get 300watts rms with that.

 

not too sure about that one, and I have no real audio experience other than messing with what I have...

but my x541 amp.. I have 0 complaints with. Lots of adjusting.. from the reciever and stuff. It sounds good to me. Tucked away in my storage area on the driver's side in the rear. Doesn't overheat an I usually have it cranked up pretty good most of the time.

I have the x811d and couldn't be happier with it. There are a lot of Kenwood haters around, but most don't have any real world knowledge to back up their claims, just hear-say I guess. Like shorties RMS comment, lol. You're not going to back that up with anything other than what your buddies older brothers friend's cousin says. RMS is almost impossible to measure. And if your that worried about it, get one that's more powerful than you need and be ready to turn it down, that's what I did.

 

Amen, that's just all around good sense.
From my experience, nothing to special about a Kenwood amp. Not to GREAT, not to bad. They don't brake often, but when they do........

 

what about the Hifonics BX1800D?
