you will be very happy with this amp.

 

I have one sitting in my garage.

 

kicker amps are underrated. This means that when they test the amps, they use an input voltage of 13.8 volts.

If it says 600x1 @ 13.8v then in an average car producing 14.4 volts, it will produce more than 600 watts. I'd say close to 800 watts.

My brother purchased the 150.2. On the box it is rated at 150x1(14.4v), but the birth certificate says tested(14.4v) is 264 x1.

i have been using a kicker dx350 mono amp for two years now, i have never had any problems with it.

If you read the cert and manual carefully, the kx-series are rated at 2 ohms. Most speakers are 4 ohms. This means that most of the time, you are not getting the rated power unless you run it at 2 ohms.
