WAYYYYYY to overpriced and useless if you ask me. I will just buy 4 500W RMS amps and call it a day before I buy that. And I will save 18K.

they had a display of this amp at the tx heatwave show in austin last year.. ran 60 12" subs and 30 6x9 speakers off it... i walked all the way around the booth and followed the wires... it was powered off that one amp..
ha 60 12" subs (2 per box) ported and then 30 6x9s... ya it was insane! i asked if i could put it on a trailer and park it infront of my neighbors house... he laughed and said sure... as long as i paid the tickets and made sure he didnt get shot or something haha

That is WAYYYY overkill. I see 2 things that are wrong. First, it very heavy, weighs 150lbs. Thats more than I weigh! And second, it only has a one year warrenty. Why would you spend your life savings (or at least new car money) on something that has a little warrenty. Did I mention its overkill? lol

unbelievable that is the true price. I guess I should have known after seeing it's a 15,000 watt amp.

I really don't understand what you'd ever need that much "oompf" for.

I mean seriously... if this thing can actually power 60 subs... not like you can fit that in any car out there.... maybe a bus or something... but $20k??? People have way too much money.

ahha the rf 15k
whats so special about it is that it can make 15k+watts off 350a of current, let me put it this way, a regular class D amp, 5krms is going to need about 500a
