Cheap amp

The amp if your lucky can only put out about 25 watts RMS. By the pictures, it shows that it has a blue fuse on it. That means it is a 15 amp fuse. So 15 amps times 14.4 volts equals 216 watts max. Divide that by 4 channels you get 54 watts max per channel. Divide that by 2 and you get 27 watts on normal and undistorted power. And no, you can't just replace fuses on an amp to a bigger size to produce more power. The more current that the fuse lets through to the amp, the more power it will produce. The only thing this amp is good for is for four 6.5" at the most. The amp doesn't even have a cross over for highs, which means that if you want to use it for highs or voice, it will do you no good.

I like that one feature that's listed on the auction...

LED Power Light

Now that's something you don't see every day! (laughs)
