MTX Thunder4501 Mono subwoofer amplifier

Want big bass? Look at our Subwoofers

Designed to pump out plenty of raw power for your subs, an MTX Thunder subwoofer amplifier provides you with the features you need to drive your system efficiently. MTX built the Thunder amps to work hard — Xtant Technologies Cooling (XTC) forces air from an internal fan over all of the important components, so the amp will stay cool when the going gets tough.

And since it's not all about power, MTX's Prizm EFX feature allows you to choose the lighting display color of the amp — pick from infinite shades of red, green, or blue — and you can set it to pulse with the music. Your system, your look, and great sound.

The Thunder4501 amplifier pushes out a solid 250 watts to a single 4-ohm subwoofer, while laying down 500 watts to two subs. A variable low-pass filter maximizes system performance by tailoring your sub's output to match its enclosure and your vehicle. A switchable bass boost gives you some extra bump when you need it.

StreetWires-designed connections transfer power with ultimate efficiency, and they're laid out on one side of the amp so wiring is easier than ever. The amp's controls are top-mounted and readily accessible. Thanks to MTX's rigorous quality control and advanced technologies, you always get quality performance with a Thunder amp onboard.
