5.0 out of 5 stars A decent cheap amp with reliable build quality, March 12, 2011

This review is from: LA690 - American Legacy Series 2 - 1000 Watt High Performance 4 Channel Amplifier (Electronics)

I bought this amp in around 2004 and have been using it to run one SVC 15" woofer. I'm installing it in a different car now to see how it runs one DVC 12. No complaints, really. It does the job it was intended to do. The price is about right for the brand name and build quality ($99). The remote bass control is handy (if you don't mind a cheesy chrome box cluttering up your interior), it lets me set the deck up with one set subwoofer level, then I don't have to try to poke fifteen buttons on the deck while I'm driving to adjust the bass for certain songs, I can just turn the dial up or down a bit.

I had this amp hooked up to a bench testing set with a regulated power supply, a sub and an oscilloscope. It ran out 690 watts total (345 watts per bridged stereo channel, tested across both channels consecutively), nowhere near it's 1000 watt rating on paper, but still, a decent chunk of power for the money.
