It's two ohm stereo stable, and it does 220W RMS for each channel. The question I have is, was Power Acoustik EVER a good brand, and if so, are those some of their old school good amps? It says made in the USA, so I thought I would ask. I know the new stuff is junk, but I wondered about these. |

Not to mention that good power amps tend to have greater SQ than many car amps, and put out more true ratings as well. |
