Thank you as always for doing great and honest amp reviews. In this one we found we missed the rating by a tiny bit on this one but hey that allows us to learn and become better from it in the future =D

[bryanwells]

You should do a compilation of the most efficient amps you've ever reviewed up till now.

[Adam-nvzo]

Shout out to Allen for providing all these keys over the years.

[matthewelliott]

Literally grew up on Price is Right and Sanford and Son.... Every time you blow something I crack up. Thumbs up as always! (And a fuse is always better than the alternative)

[BaddDukk]

I was a professional installer for about 25 years. As such, I have always had access to, and used, big brand top flight amplifiers - Rockford, JL, Zapco, etc. I tend to scoff at these new brands, and I expect it is a tough deal for people to try to sort through what is crap, what is great, and what falls in between. Kudos that you review a lot of them.
For no reason that I can explain, the MM line from D4S has caught my attention. Maybe it's the color palette reminding me of Linear Power from back in the day. I am happy to see that they appear to be a decent product. I might just have to pick a few up to try out. Nice work.

[adamnorwood]

Thank you for doing these videos. My son “BrodyMan_Bass14” is eight years old and learns so much from these. Thank you

[chloeleedow]

Every time I watch amp videos I'm forever impressed that the jl hd1200. 1 (you've reviewed it) can do 1200wrms at all ohms at half the footprint and more of amps that can't do half that. Might be over 1$ per watt but ill pay it all day for how good the amp looks and bumps and stays tiny.

[nunyabisness]

Probably the most impressive tiny Amos I’ve seen you test. Great value

[anthonywaldrep]

I love the subwoofer tests but when I watch at home, I always have to turn it down. The Klipsch 12 is not neighbor friendly at night, lol! Awesome video, as always Big D!!

[pgmurray]

OWWWW! The MM1000 is a dream super compact, 4Ohm, 500Watt plus, 96% efficient mono sub amplifier for all my older 4Ohm subs. Ok, I want an Audio Control, but maybe I will get both to support my favorite companies.

[tannershade]

Thank you for using our ELAC speakers. Should you need anything reach out to me. Tanner

[Iowa]

That transparent bottom cover is sweet! Too bad it doesn't include a way to mount it upside down.

[jasonlopez]

Good amplifier like the old school look. For best sound get everything from one company. I'm big Rocker Fosgate guy for years my brother is stuck in the 90's so i got him Down for sound amplifier for 4-12 inch Kenwood KFC and the JP23 perfect for him. I want the mini for my Motorcycle and 10 inch for my sattle bags now that's sound 😎

[justinvanburen]

Another great video!! Thank you, I need the 1000 now!!

[beardedgaming]

its so strange hearing demos on my home computer system. getting your bass from my sub but port noise from my speakers. lol
i just installed some of these amps in a system at work. 123 4 and a 1004 with a jp63 and jp40 (iirc on those model numbers). they are pretty good, so far ive been impressed given their low cost.

[nighttow]

Would you test an old school discontinued Kenwood amp if I sent it to you? This was the first name brand amp I ever purchased and has served me well in my daily driver for 20 years. The only reason I pulled it out of service is to replace it with a newer amp with twice the power.

The amp in question is a KAC-7201. I have been scouring the internet for years looking for a dyno test on this old amp.

[smokeyou]

Came here to see the dyno because i also just picked up a purple mini maxx 1500 at D4S for $139. Absolutely couldn't pass it up at that price. It'll look good beside my JP3.

[TripleOgTripleOgTriple]

Was looking at the amp color ways and liking the options available. Saw an autograph option for $50. Never seen that before, oh my 😮

[chloeleedow]

Also speaker cables do not have to be massive the current coming out of amp is is AC negating the dc voltage/resistance issue. Unless you're talking multiple kilowatts you're good. 😊
