It’s a great amplifier for a starter system, idk how much power it can really handle, because I use this amplifier with a kicker 12″ cvr pushing 400 Mrs, 800 peak, and when I really got the music playing, and it’s over 90°, without the a/c on and opening the extra hatch in the back for it to receive extra air, it goes into protective mode… It gets hotter than my alpine 100 watt amp playing 2 6.5″ kicker speakers with 150wattrms, 300wattpeak each.
