BOSS Audio Systems R1100M Monoblock Car Amplifier - 1100 High Output, 2-8 Ohm Stable, Low/High Level Inputs, Low Pass Crossover, MOSFET Power Supply

I bought this after viewing about 20 amps along with reading the reviews. I have it powering to 12 inch Kicker Comps subs and believe me when I say that I was surprised at its power. It’s compacted so that was nice since it sits under my set where I have my speaker. The price is great and the amp out preforms the price so that is a plus. Easy to install.

I gave this amp a 5 star because it works perfect for the set up i wanted and the amp is performing good, just as expected. Now, it is true that the amp is not rated correctly in wattage but for the price you should expect as such. But I knew exactly what I was buying so there is no complaints with this amp from me. I tested for a few days and it works well, no issues, handles heat very well and is a very sturdy amp. I wanted something simple that adds bass to my system so I paired this amp with a cheap boss 10" sub in a sealed box in my truck and for me, it sounds great. So if your looking to add some nice bass to your system then this amp is not a bad choice at all. If your looking for something to power your 2 12" subs, probably not the right choice for you. All in all great amp if your looking for something simple, just a little tip, I have a ford ranger and you really need to make sure you find a good ground, i did and this amp does not overheat at all, also, i have this set up in my extended cab in my ranger so putting a set up like this in a trunk of a car may underwhelm, it all just depends on how much bass your looking for, i was on the fence about buying this amp but I'm really happy with it and glad I did. Hope this review helps.

Long story short, hubby is using this as an amp for a subwoofer in our 5.1 home theater system, works as expected. Our setup:Onkyo TX-SR304 (65W per channel)Center channel: RCA 40-5038 200W Center Channel Speaker Dual 5" Drivers Monopole Linaeum TweeterMains: Pioneer S-HF21-LR (100W each)Surrounds: Realistic Minimus-7W 40-2039B Walnut grain (40W each)Sub: BSR DR-SW15x2 passive dual coil (200W)Sub Amp (this item): Boss R1100M Riot Monoblock ampSub Amp power supply: FSP 300-60BN (+12v @ 11A max)As you can see, our HT system is a piecemeal of older components so an auto amp powering the sub is no stranger to our living room. Once the sub was wired up for 4-ohm dual-L/R bridged to 8-ohm it keeps the volume levels consistent via the LFE pre-out (which needed a single-to-dual RCA adapter to connect to the low-level input on the BOSS amp) it is a welcome addition to our system.Pros: Good sound at lower power, low price (easily 1/3 the cost of typical dedicated sub pre-amp/amplifiers for HT use).Cons: The remote unit does not seem to control the volume level as expected, lots of elbow grease needed to convert this to HT use (not really a con, very fun to be honest :)Lucked out with the FSP PSU, is able to run on +12v load alone without needing 5v or 3.3v pull-up (sometimes needed for older PC switching power supplies) and the +12v rail should be able to handle the power to match the Onkyo output without any problems (and can be replaced w/ a seasonic SS unit quite easily). All the +12v yellow wires were snipped from the molex connectors (and one from the 20-pin ATX, 5x18AWG total for +12v) were bundled to a yellow crimp connector mated to 2x16AWG zip cord for power to the amp, and same for the ground. The cheap sony speakers in the pic were just for testing the BSRs crossover, they are terrible but work :)Once it was all set up we fired up the youtube app on our Visio smart TV and played some random R&B compilation, the first track was Bruno's 24K Magic - WOW what a difference that sub makes, the 15" rocks the entire wall unit when turned up, had to turn it down before the pictures started falling of the shelf. Needless to say, we are extremely satisfied with our purchase.

I purchased this amp with a gift card to power 2 Kicker CompR 10" 2 Ohm dual voice coil woofers in a sealed box running at a total of 2 Ohms.I listen to alot of R&B, techno, and deep heavy bass music in a 2017 Mazda 3. I initially purchased this amp as a very cheap (basically free from a christmas giftcard) beginner amp with the intention to purchase a new amp once this one failed..... WELL, 2 years later and it is still going strong as ever!!It works and provides what it is supposed to do, MORE BASS!****Nit picks about the amp****-It is no where near 1100 watts! Alot of reviews show this amp really caps at 200 watts. So, at most 100 Watts per 10" CompR woofer in my set up. It has been great and plenty loud enough for just some extra bass support.-I found I kept driving the gain a little higher trying to get more output but this amp just could not dish it out with out distorting. I only say that to be mindful that that this amp will not be rattling the neighbors windows or really even bothering the other cars next to you. I will be audible outside the vehicle but nothing really aggressively obnoxious.-It is a class A/B amplifier so it does draw more power when turned full set volume , but only enough to make my headlights dip a small amount very quickly.So, If you are wanting just some extra low end support with out spending to much! I would 100% recommend this! I only rate it 4 stars because of the false claim of 1100 watts from BOSS, not really any issue with the seller or product.
