About the Soundstream Reserve RSM1.2000D
Tiny giant
Soundstream packed an unbelievable amount of power in this tiny, hand-sized RSM1.2000D subwoofer amp that'll fit in almost anywhere in your car — putting out up to 600 watts RMS of bass power. A low-pass filter, subsonic filter, bass boost, and wired remote let you sculpt the bass tones to perfection, even from the front seat. And this amplifier generates all this power from a chassis with a footprint of 7-1/2" by 3-3/4", with a Class-D design that keeps heat and current draw to a minimum.

Q
Got this amp a set up with a Memphis 10" and when I adjust the bass knob that comes with it my sub moves in and out with the dial.. no music playing. What would the reason be?
[ Robertt Sep 01, 2021 ]

A
No sure why it does this... did you adjust the gain on the amount before you plugged the dail in... or is the plug for the dail tightly seated?
[ Brandon Sep 02, 2021 ]
A
The amount of RMS power being supplied to sub. As more power is supplied to the sub's electromagnetic coils by increasing the gain, the sub will pust out further from the back magnet, and vice versa.

Q
Will this amp work with 1 kicker comp r 12 wired to two ohms it's got a 500 watt rms and 1000 watt max?

I have a pushing a 12 inch Infiniti 300 W RMS and there is more to be desired on the power end. I would pair it with the JL audio JD 500/1 For $70 more. The JL will get the job done for you.
[ PAUL Dec 12, 2020 ]
A
Good amp but NO. I would not put it with a kicker. You will be unhappy with the power.
[ PAUL Dec 12, 2020 ]
A
It will work.

Real nice unit. have pushing a kenwood 12 inch wedge at 480 watts for about a month now and it fills in nicely and will pound pretty hard when you want it to. Excellent value. Does seem to put out some fm interference, is mounted in trunk fairly close to the antennae though.
