    Small but powerful

    Bought this to along with new Kenwood stereo for my boat. I now have it working very well, but the way I hooked up my speakers, 4 to 1 channel and ran the other channel bridged to my sub, the way the paperwork said to adjust the amp wasn't even close and did cause me a extra hour headache figuring out the best way to get the settings set for optimal sound performance. That is the only reason it didn't get a 5 star......

    The little amp that couldn't

    I liked the size of the amp small compact Even though this amp is a 600 W amp it doesn't make my 6x9 and 6 1/2 inch speakers that loud. I have a 420 W amp that I hooked up and it makes the same speakers way louder and sounds good Disappointed on volume output but the small compact size worked better for my situation

  • Small, very powerful amp. Perfect, except for one thing.

    This amp (I thought would be) perfect for my aftermarket fairing for my Harley Road King. There is not much room inside the fairing, and I needed a lot of power to drive the Polk DB692 speakers I chose. Small sized, and this amp has been bench tested and proved to be under-rated by the manufacturer. Powerful and clean sound. The complaint I have is it overheats big time. I hooked everything up and let it play for an hour at high volume, which would simulate my use on the interstate at 75 mph. The amp gets so hot that you cannot leave your hand on top of it. Amps are supposed to get warm and some get hot, but THIS amp can fry eggs, no kidding. Cannot leave your hand on it for longer than 3 seconds, or you will blister. This is a great amp, but it gets too hot to install in a fairing or saddle bags. I left mine in there and I know it will do what it is supposed to do- it just won't do it for a very long time. Heat destroys electronics, just as much as moisture does. But moisture is pretty much covered by the engineers at Kenwood. Special provisions have been adequately made to guard against moisture damage, but nothing regarding the excessive heat. P.S. I bought two of these and they both heat up the same.

  • Amazing amp, regardless of size.

    BigDWiz on YouTube tested this amp and it exceeded spec, especially in the dynamic test. Size is great, very compact making for easy installs. Connections are solid. Sounds great with no noticeable coloration of the sound or distortion. Can be bridged which is a great feature and a feature that's lacking in many of the mini amps. I've experienced quite a few mini amps, ranging from really cheap brands to Rockford and Zapco, and must say for the money, features, and sound performance, the KAC-M3004 can't be beat. More features and overhead than RF and more efficient without sacrificing sound than Zapco ST series.

  • Heck of a little amp!

    Rated it 4 stars. Saw a online test of this amp and it exceeded the rated wattage by alot. It sounds great compared with my OEM Harley radio. Clean sounding with reduced destortion. Hookup could be easier especially using speaker level inputs. Need 2 or 4 RCA speaker wire connectors to splice onto output of speakers. Had to order these separate. May also need RCA female to 2 male Y adapters depending on how you want to amplify. I deducted a star due these issues.

  • ROCKS on my STREET GLIDE

    This is a killer amp small enough to mount atop of my kenwood x500 head unit inside my fairing on my street glide and it is 2 ohm stable as I have my polk db 6.5 series in my lower fairings and my polk db series 6x9 in my saddlebags split they are all 4 ohm speakers running off of two channels of this amp and my infinity 6.5 kappas in the batwing are running off the other two channels this system is scary loud and clear with very little fine tuning to the low and high pass filters on the amp and with no heat issues I LOVE IT! and shipping was fast great product for the money!

  • Power House

    If you are going to drop in an amp this is the one. Had the small Kenwood 400w in my retro stereo in my vintage Chevy C10 with some great JL Audio speakers. Not impressed at all. Replaced it this weekend with this amp and it blows your hair back. Awesome.

  • I was afraid small wouldn't deliver..

    I was pleasantly surprised by the sound quality of this small unit. I'll admit, I was very careful to save the box and packing material in case I wanted to return it. I replaced a much larger, older name brand amp and it sounded better the moment I turned the system on!

  • Great power in small package!

    I put this amplifier in my Harley-Davidson and it fit very well and gave extreme amount of power for the size. Great quality amplifier an easy to install.

  • Great Amp For Being So Small

    Hooked this up on My Harley Davidson Street Glide With a Jensen HD1BT aftermarket radio, and what a difference. Made all the difference in the world in the volume department. Paired with front and rear J&M Rokker Speakers and I have no problems hearing my radio at any speeds. People riding next to me say that they can hear the music clearly, even going down the freeway.
