Exceeds Expectations!

Justin from Friendswood, TX on 7/15/2025

2000 Mazda Miata

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

I know nothing about aftermarket sound systems and this is my first time swapping a factory system in my 2000 Mazda Miata. I threw this amplifier in to power a set of Hertz DCX 130.3 speakers I also got from Crutchfield, and it totally exceeded my expectations. The sound is super clean and crisp; no hiss or distortions. I have this seated behind the driver's seat temporarily, and I found it does run just a little warm during hotter days or long drives, but my car also does not have AC. If you're looking for a simple system, this little thing exceeded my first impressions and highly recommend it.

Pros: - Clean, clear sound with a compact design and built-in short circuit protection.

Cons: - Limited power output, too low for any power-hungry sub and may also run a little warm.

Just the right choice

Verified employee review (What's this?)

In my project of upgrading my 2019 Aston Martin vantage, space and ease of use were critical, not brutal power. I tried two other amps that just were coming up short. Finally, I stepped up to the Rockford. The unit is better constructed, the switch is easier to access and use. All critical attachements are secured either precise allen head fasteners. No monkeying around with baby screws. The manual is also very easy to follow. I am not an electro-geek but a novice wrench. This unit check all the boxes and seems super reliable.

Pros: size is perfect to hide away and it runs cool controls and install straight up easy feels of quality

Cons: absolutely none

Great car speaker amp!

Verified employee review (What's this?)

Amazing amp. Get some speakers that are the same wattage and just run them. Plug and play pretty much. I didn't use it but I like the auto remote turn on feature. I did try it and it works well but I like security if a real remote wire. Had 0 issues at all. Runs my infinity coaxial speakers very well and clear. Just overall a positive experience. I do wish it was a tiny bit smaller. You have to strategically mount it to make it hidden but the materials are high quality for sure. 9/10 overall

Pros: Sound, quality, range, ease of installation

Cons: Minor con but a little big. Still fits under a seat or something

Verified employee review (What's this?)

Installed in a 2015 Outback Premium (no HK). Fits nicely under the driver seat. This 2 channel amp is powering a pair of JL Audio C1-690x (door speakers) and a pair of KICKER 51KSC2704 (dash speakers). My door and dash speakers are wired in parallel so they are sharing the same channel on the amp. Great sound quality. Using this setup to help with my music production. Cant wait to add a sub to this system.

Solidly built amp, high quality output, good features

John from WILLOW STREET, PA on 12/14/2020

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

Surprisingly outstanding amplifier, exceeds expectations significantly. Output is very clear and free of color, does not seem to introduce any unwanted noise. Doesn't require any alteration of the audio with bass/treble or equalizer. Built-in line output converter works well and excellent feature, eliminates the need for an external processor to turn on the amp (also means no concern about noise introduced through the RCA cables, or loose cables between audio processor and amp). The amplifier is very high, but in this case it feels like a sign of quality and durability. The connections are all very robust-feeling with large screws for the audio outputs and power terminals. All of the switches onboard have a solid feeling and click into a positive position for controls like the onboard crossovers and line output converter selection. Everything about the amp feels very well designed and solidly built. Mostly satisfied with the power and output of the amplifier. The amp is rated for a relatively conservative 50 watts x 2 speakers at 4 ohms, but even with that relatively low power, it produces volume more than loud enough to complete destroy your hearing if you turn up your input volume the entire way (didn't bother testing SPL since I don't listen to audio for ear exploding noise). More importantly the audio is very clear and distortion free, even when cranked up to high'ish volume levels. A+ amplifier with no complaints after several months of use

Pros: - Excellent built quality, strong screw terminals - High quality, color-free audio output - Nice features (line output converter, onboard crossovers, bridgeable)

Cons: - Price is a bit high for a 2 x 50 watt 4-ohm amplifier, but you get what you pay for - Could be a little smaller?

Powerful little amp

Jack from Tulare, CA on 7/16/2020

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

It's a good amp for adding bass to a family car. It is better for smaller subs like 8 or 10 inch. Not enough power for the P1 as the p1 does 250rms and this amp only does 200rms bridged

Pros: Small design, easy to mount on the box

Cons: Not enough power to fully take advantage of a 12inch P1 subwoofer
