Perfect for those wanting to add a little sub
Crutchfield customer from Columbus, OH on 12/27/2020

It's obvious this amp is really pushing like 325- 350 to a JL TW3 and it does it very well! Love the small size and the ability to hide it.
Pros: It's crazy small and you can hide it anywhere
Cons: Kinda wish they made a 500watt one, lol

The most underated AMP
Crutchfield customer from Aldie, VA on 12/9/2020
Quality quality quality. You will not go wrong with this amp. It will drive speakers rated much higher wattage than advertised. I bought this to power my 300W, 8 inch kicker and it sounds great. Before mounting a friend connected it to his 600W 12 inch JBL to test and it THUMPED.

Quality compact amp that eliminates the need for a DSP when integrating into a factory stereo. I paired it to a Kenwood Excelon P-XRW1002DB downfire 2O subwoofer and the performance is exceptional!

Compact power

No need to get an lc2i and connect it to an amp, just get this compact unit and be done. Love how all the connections are on one side, makes installation a breeze.
Pros: Compact, easy connection
Cons: Nada

AudioControl ACM-1.300
Crutchfield customer from Tampa, FL on 6/1/2020

102 dB s/n ratio. No need to fool with Accu-Bass with an aftermarket head unit and rca pre-outs. Powering a JL 12TW3 wired @ 2 ohms. Plenty of power and bass at 1/4 gains. Super compact and easy to install. Same slight gripe about 12 gage wire being tough to connect to terminals but other than that, it's sweet.

I was upgrading my factory sub and needed an LOC and AMP. This unit is both in one and is what I needed to push an 8" JL. Very happy with it.

Great 'add a sub' amp
Crutchfield customer from Elk Grove, CA on 4/15/2020
2011 BMW 1 Series
This is an excellent solution for the DIYer. It combines two of the necessary components for an 'add a sub/amp' project. It effectively combines a Line Out Converter and an amp. One less thing to wire up. I've run three subs with it. A kicker 300watt 8" a JL 300 watt 10" and a 400 watt JL 10". It easily powered all three, even the sub with the higher power rating. The two drawbacks with this amp are the AccuBass control and a crossover with only 3 settings (80hz, 120hz and passthrough). It would be nice to have a more adjustable crossover. AccuBass was a little difficult to understand and it made tuning a little more difficult than it needed to be. It took a YouTube search to find an internet stranger in order to get good instructions on tuning using that feature. Other than that it's a quality well built amp for just about anyone looking to add a sub to the factory system. Recommended.
Pros: Simplifies an add an amp/sub system. Plenty of power. Quality and well built.
Cons: Accubass is difficult to understand. It makes tuning a little more difficult. Crossover only has 3 settings.

Seriously impressed with AudioControl
Crutchfield customer from El Dorado Hills, CA on 11/13/2019
Using this tiny amp to power two JL Audio 6w3's in my 2019 Chevy Silverado and I'm super impressed. The wiring capability is to tap directly into the factory speakers is AWESOME and such a time saver over running a remote power and rca or having to mess with some intermediate conversion piece. I was a little skeptical of these new "mini" amps, I usually run atleast 600 to 1,000 watt Rockford Fosgate amps or multi amp set ups. But I wanted to keep the size of this subwoofer set up as small as I could add this is my daily driver/work truck. The match up of this amp to the little 6.5 JL subs is amazing. I never thought I could get bass like this out such a tiny set up, and it takes up less than a third of the storage space under my rear bench seat. I've used AudioControl LC7's in two other installs and notes this amp in my own truck. AudioControl is some quality stuff. I highly recommend.

Buy this !!!!
Crutchfield customer from Hampstead, MD on 4/1/2019
This thing is amazing ...I purchased an Audi SQ5 that needed more bass , installed this in the hidden compartment where the factory amp was located . WARNING ... Audi B&O premium stereo will not activate the remote turn on through speaker signal !! My past history for reference is original Orion hcca's , Phoenix Gold M44, original Rockford Punch, PPI Art series etc.... currently running Polk Digitals in my Rover. This little thing (and it's TINY) is remarkable , have it running a single 10 and couldn't be happier !!! Ease of instal, power output, sound quality, built in x-overs,

Crutchfield customer from Powell, OH on 9/25/2018
Great little amp. Clean power. Graceful turn on so no "pop". Takes my high level in.
Pros: Small. Well built. Good clean power.
Cons: Doesn't have an RJ11 port for remote bass knob like is shown in AudioControls website. This is probably just an older version. No big deal.

Odd, but Excellent
Crutchfield customer from Merced, CA on 8/20/2018
This is very high fidelity for a subwoofer amp, with extremely low noise and distortion specs, and full frequency response if you bypass the filters. It also has very well thought out physical design, with a screw-on heatsink and cover plate to protect your settings, and cable attachments that are secure but detach easily if necessary. It is small, but has a long dimension which didn't allow me to conceal it where I had originally planned. Except for that minor thing, it fits my needs perfectly.
Pros: Small, powerful, quiet, excellent specs.
Cons: None really. It gets a little hotter than I expected, but not alarmingly hot.

Everything you need for a factory sub upgrade in one unit
TC from Westborough, MA on 6/24/2018
A small but powerful amp with the added convenience of including AudioControl's speaker-level input, auto turn-on, and Accubass capabilities that used to require you to purchase the separate LC2i unit. This makes the wiring so much easier. The unit is very small so it is easy to find a mounting location. You just run a power and ground wire to it, tap into your speaker level wires (which in my case was a mono subwoofer in a Hyundai Sonata), and then run the new speaker wire from the amp to the subwoofer. After some adjusting, the Accubass does a terrific job of picking a good bass signal out of your factory speaker-level signal. And the auto turn-on works perfectly. Only downside is that it doesn't include the optional "Bass Control" add-on that the LC2i has which allows for controlling the output level from the dashboard. After having the amp installed for a week, that's the one thing I wish I had.
Pros: Small - auto turn-on - Accubass included (no need for LC2i) - speaker level inputs.
Cons: - Instructions were a little light on how to adjust Accubass. Also, the speaker-level output connections were a little small for a high powered amp. Finally, the unit doesn't include the Bass Control option that the LC2i offers.

Amazing features for the price
Victor from Peoria, AZ on 6/14/2018
Great amp with lots of features for the price. I am using as an add on to a stock sound system in an Audi B8 S4. The features, especially the size allows it to fit under the stock amp and out of sight.
Pros: Size and features
Cons: Instructions on tuning accubass and wiring for 2ohm not clear.
