  • Awesome Amp!
Style: 3400W Monoblock
This amp works well with the two 12’s rockford fosgate P3’s I put in my truck! It does the job well enough! Sounds really great! Very good amp for the price and quality. Update: 11/19/2023 The amp has quit working on me! Take the advice of others and avoid buying this amp!

  • Off to a great start! I am impressed!!! Read on....6 years later now.
Style: 1600W Monoblock
Edit 2: read bottom of review..... This is my first real review here on amazon so it may have typos, (I'm on my phone) or not the greatest grammar. I just received my 1600 watt mono riot boss amp earlier today 8-2-2016 and proceeded to hook it up. Its being tested and used on the dual 12 Mtx Terminators and so far so good. Haven't done the fine tuning on it or my head unit yet but I have the gain set 2/5 and they sound great for no tuning. For the sake of my review I will start with my initial impression of the amp and update it after I fine tune them. Then 1 week later, and at last 3-6months later. So, let's start with the unboxing. I purchased the 1600 watt mono riot to power my Mtx dual 12 Terminators at 400rms. I did extensive research on this amp and realize BOSS greatly over exaggerates their watts and rms. So I based it off that the 1100 watt riot that can be bundled with the Mtx Terminators is only pushing around 250-300rms at 2ohms according to many reviews I have read. With that math, the 1600 watt amp should be around 360-450 rms at 2ohms. Which would match my subs perfect. And even if I'm wrong, it should be a decent amp to power them at the least, and was purchased at a great price. I purchased a used like new amp from the Amazon wherehouse and it's brand new except for the boss which has a few minor dings. Now, when I opened the box, I was very impressed tbh. It's heavy but not too heavy, feels of high quality materials and it even looks nice (apparently it glows blue where it says BOSS). The bass knob is kind of cheap looking, but at least it comes with one. It has the manual and a BOSS sticker for your car, high level inputs, 2 extra fuses at 25amps a piece and mounting brackets attached to the amp. I ran it earlier for around an hour at mid level volume and it stayed cool (which doesn't mean it won't overheat after extensive use) but off to a good start. It's also 88 degrees outside where I'm at. So I realize there isn't a whole lot to my review to base a real review off of but my initial impression warrants a 4stars. I will update my review in 1 week with more information on my experience with this amp. Edit: it's now been 5 days and it kicks like a champ. I found the sweet spot on my amp for the subs and it bumps. Ran it for over an hour at 3/4 volume and it only got a little bit hot. Nothing major. I am very impressed and will continue to adjust minor things as I feel I have broke my subs in. I do not use bass knob (it does work) but I feel like i have to put the knob higher up than the amp gain knob to get the same sound. It could be just me but whatever. Let's see how the next couple months go and I'll be back for my final thoughts. Still 4 stars and I highhly recommend this amp for budget builds or people on a budget. Also, it looks so dope at night when the amp lights up blue around the BOSS logo in the back of my jeep. Edit2: So amp still is running a few weeks later and has never overheated like some may say. It all depends on location, what it's powering and how hot it is in your area u live. But I've come to realize it sounds decent. Maybe I have gotten used to the bass but it doesn't kick as hard as I feel they can or others have stated with a different amp..once again I have the boss 1600mono amp class a/b powering 2 12 mtx terminators. I am going to purchase a new rockford Fosgate Amp 500w at 2 ohms and will update my review once I hear how it sounds in a few weeks. I have a feeling it's going to be much better sounding and might take a star off my review. Still a cheap priced amp for a cheap build. Also the price has risen to 77$ on amazon in the past few weeks...I bought it for 53$like new. So be careful. Edit 3: 6 years later it finally went died on me. A couple things I've learned over the years. 1. This amp (1600 watt) is only 500rms at 2ohms. Even then it might be less. 2. The price is at 110$ now which is double the price I spent, although 6 years ago. 3. It lasted through 3 cars, and multiple installs. Its a great amp for what you get and for a low rms low budget build. Stick to around 400-500rms. But with all ive learned from car audio, Skar is the best proce to performance out there. If you cant get Skar then this will do. ... show more

  • update
Style: 200W 2 Channel
Saw the warning and reviews indicating this unit had some problems...either it worked or it did not. I have limited space as the picture shows. Wired it up, easy, and fired it up. Worked great. Turned it off and had lunch. Came back out and was going to drive the truck, turned on the key and radio and "pop", amp fuse blew. Installed another one and "pop". Checked all the wires and all was good, but amp fuse kept blowing. I can only assume something in the amp was faulty. Due to having all the wiring done and the fit being correct, I will give it one more try. For 90 seconds it sounded great...just what I needed to complete with my exhaust!...Update...Second unit kept cutting out. Boss radio changes modes all be itself. Boss speakers rattle so bad I had to pull them. Customer service was good, product is not. Sorry. ... show more

  • Great amplifier for the price
Style: 200W 2 Channel
Great price for an amplifier it works great, I bought a used car that had an amplifier in it and someone took their amplifier out so I use this amplifier so I could use my speakers in my car because they had all the wiring hooked up for an amplifier. This is a great product for someone that would be in my situation. ... show more

  • Excellent amp for Subwoofers
Style: 1200W 2 Channel
I have been using this amp for around two years now and I love it! I recommend it to all of my friends for their car sub setups and most of the are using it now too. I have used this in my Dodge Ram with two 10" kickers (boost turned town for 10's) and it had excellent sound quality. It also fit nicely under the center console (2003 model). I now use it for two 12" Pioneers in the back of my 4runner and it sounds even better! I used the mounts preinstalled on the amp and have it mounted to the side of my sub box. It has a clean look to it and the backlit boss logo looks slick. (SIDE NOTE: I have had to since cover up the backlit logo because it was reflecting very brightly at night in my rear window. This is not a reflection of boss or the amp quality, just something to keep in mind when installing.) The instillation was very simple, just using the screws to tighten down on the cables. I highly recommend getting the boss wiring kit along with this. It has all of the necessary cables for setup and they are great quality. I do wish the wires came with the amp, but it's not a huge deal as long as you remember to order cables when you order the amp. Pros: - Great Sound Quality - Manual Adjustment of frequencies, bass boost, and power - Has never overheated - Cooling fan is silent - Mounts nicely and cleanly - Powers two 12" with no struggle Cons: - Does not include cables - Does not include screws for mounting - Remote adjustment knob does not seem to work (Not really a big deal to me though) ... show more
